• 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 would appreciate if anyone can show the procedure how to attach effects using blender and the toolset.

Thanks,
Manochvarma Raman
 
It's in the wiki article about the toolset
It seems doesn't work. I am not sure i am doing wrong or not. But i came across few threads stating the effect not appear in sim when following the method somehow as stated in wiki articles using blender. Will be appreciate if someone can guide clearly.
 
Hi @arno, need your help here.

Any ideas why these errors coming up? Importing the effect attached model has no problem in MCX. Just when exporting the similar model to bgl creating these errors.

Do you have attachpoints with weird names or duplicate names maybe?
 
Hi Arno,
I think I manage to find the problem. I have space in between the name of the attachpoint in blender.

Example:
NAME: Effect Test

After I change to this:
NAME: EffectTest

It solve the problem.

Thank you.
 
Yes, I already thought the space was the problem. XtoMDL is really picky when it comes to special characters in names, etc.
