[avions]

Hi, recently I reinstalled Windows 7 on my pc, I' ve been developing an aircraft model for FSX for quite some time using 3ds max 2009 with Prepar3d SDK v1.4, everything was ok before reinstallation but now xtomdl reports nothing more than errors:

Hello,

It looks like you may be missing a dependency. You may want to try to download the June 2010 DirectX SDK.
