• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hi,I made out custom ground poly in blender and export them out in dae format.Then mcx ground polygon wizard to convert them to bgl format.I arrange the layers normally and when i tested it out,I noticed that certain texture didnt receive shadow.

Try to restrict the layers you use to the range of 16-32. They all receive shadows. Of course you can also keep those which do in your case.

Thanks for the sggestion sir,I found out that the working layer that receive shadow are layer16-28.But why did the other layers wont receive any shadows?Is it a bug or its the way the sim works? Thanks :)

Both, I suspect...
Layer 4 also works fine, it's only 8 and 12 (based on standard multiples of 4) which don't work in P3D3. Still, it might be an ideal time to look at P3D3-native ground polys using MCX...
