Hello everyone,
I am trying to use the visuals of aircraft 1 and sort of graft it onto the systems and everything else of aircraft 2. In short, I’d like to replace the visuals of aircraft 2 with those of aircraft 1, while keeping everything else unchanged like the flight dynamics and configs.
Since the second aircraft uses WASM and has a quite complex file hierarchy, this has proved to be more difficult than I thought. WASM, panel, gauges, and more. But really, I don’t need to touch those things, I just want to replace the glTF file in the model folder with the glTF of aircraft 1. But of course, simply deleting and putting in another glTF and renaming it won’t do the trick, as when I reload the now-modified aircraft 2 on MSFS 2020, various errors show up, starting with ‘unable to load model.glTF’ and some others saying things about how certain animations / parameters are missing and can’t be connected in the glTF. So I ended up with an invisible plane that still flies and does everything like aircraft 2 used to do, just invisible.
So I just deleted the aircraft folder and replaced it with a fresh copy of aircraft 2’s folder, went into the model folder, and tried to open the glTF file in Bledner to see if I can manually edit parts there, but that didn’t work. Blender, even with its MSFS glTF addon, simply doesn’t recognize the file. If I could just open that original glTF file, that would be fantastic.
Any help would be great. Thank you for reading! Please ask if you are not sure what exactly I’m trying to do or have any questions.
