Blender 2 MSFS ( only xml file being formed, no *bin or *gltf file created!?)

Hi, I am working on a hangar for an airport, and initially i was able to create all xml, bin and gltf files, and get the texture file in the texture folder . But recently in Blender 2.9 i am only able to create the xml file. For some reason all the other files are not being created! I am following the same steps as i did before but nothing is happening. Any help appreciated!

I am generating the xml file, naming it, making sure the Blender 2MSFS extension is checked/ Asobo extension is being used. But all its doing is generating the xml file only!

thanks

you must verify two things.Did you select the object? Second thing, did you enable batch export lods? Because if you enable this and you havent’s lods, this could be the problem.

So it was unchecking ’ batch export LOD’s, which seemed to help, interestingly. Everything else , i did as you suggested. thanks!

If I selected the object and set batch export Lods but still have xml only, what should I do?

Please show us all your settings in the exporter.

Actually I found the problem. I selected the object and set all the options as was described in a non-official video. But I didn’t take into account collection naming - it should be x00, x01 etc.
So I should either turn off generate lods or name the collections properly. Afterwards I managed to export and even merge it into the sim. Wohoo!

That sounds correct. If you use the LOD option you need to name the objects accordingly. If you just use one LOD you skip the setting and you can use whatever name you like.
