I do not have AC3D 9 so can't tell you at the moment, but I wanted to ask if support of this plugin is planned also for XP12 and onward? It would be great

Version 4.0 of the AC3D X-Plane plugin now available! See first message in this thread. It requires AC3D 9 minimum and supports X-Plane 12 files.updated for XP12 (requires AC3D 9 min)
  • extra _bb and _pm lights added
  • added lit_nits (brightness) value to attr_light (default 1000)
  • light parameter labels are updated with correct field labels (from the data in lights.txt)
  • the number of max selected objects/panels open at once can be increased up to 9 (not larger) by editing MAX_SEL in the tcl file.
  • light-type popup menu changed to a more compact combobox.
  • dref pulldowns have been made longer
  • "cd" value in lights now imported and exported correctly

Please let me know if you have any problems.

Hi Andy! Thanks for the terrific update for the new lights in XP12! Unfortunately, after I copied the XPlaneSupport.tcl and XPlaneSupportWin.p to the plugins folder of AC3D 8.6, the X-Plane plugin menu does not show on the main AC3D menu bar.
Any advice on this?
Happy Holidays!

The latest, and the previous version, require AC3D 9.

You need to open up the app and put them in the plugin folder. Don't put in the scripts folder. Instructions are in the first message of this thread.

Thanks, doesn’t change the situation. No matter where I put the plugin, all X-Plane services are visible twice.
