Please change this ,go to "Send to" right click on the shortcut ,I change from 9 to 7 in the 3DSM7 and see

%windir%\system32\cmd.exe /K E:"\FSX_SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Modeling SDK\3DSM7\Plugins\xtomdl.exe" /XANIM /DICT:E:"\FSX_SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Modeling SDK\bin\modeldef.XML" > buildlog.txt

All I can say this is the only way and its has been the only way all the 3d max 7,8,9, designers are been working with Bill's method ,there's got to be something keep watching ,and read other forums ,reading and looking that's what I did back in 2004 when it was fs9-sdk and then came FSX-SDK and by asking and reading all around was the way I could fix it ,I export models from gmax and 3d max ,right now I have the VC from and old 717 I made and I'm using 3d max 7 and gmax at the same time ,My latest Citation X was made in Max 7

just take some rest my friend and tomorrow a fresh head will be better ,I'll be here to help you Wink
