The webform to import 3D models directly into the DB is in production. Now you can use this tool to send your models to the database used by Terrasync. If everything is fine and your model respects the specifications written in the foreword, then it will quickly be shipped to all FG users worldwide through [[Terrasync]]. Yet another unique feature amongst the flight simulation world held by FlightGear. Thanks to Clément, Julien, Martin, for their help & support, and all of FG users who showed interest and support in those tools.

Already 100 3D models have been imported with this form in Shangai, Berlin, Stuttgart, France and in the UK! See the statistics [http://scenemodels.flightgear.org/stats.php here]. Thanks Gijs for the new nice layout.

We hope to see a lot of scenes not yet available via Terrasync merge into scenemodels. Nothing is now easier, especially when used in conjunction with our Mapserver!

Remember that this is the strength of FG compared to other sims: everything can be in Terrasync and no need to download patches or sceneries here and there.

Moreover, an Ac3D viewer using Hangar by Juan Mellado is also available for general public for those whose browser supports WebGL (such as Firefox)!
