• 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.

    MSFS24 2024 LOD system is horrible, how to get models to stay sharp for a reasonable distance using MCX lod creator

    Ok. Hi everyone. I think I have discovered the way to use the LODS. first thing i was doing was replacing an older model with the same one, so you would open the object info tab and click edit, then put in a new name for the model and click "set new guid" so you can have both models in the...

    MSFS24 2024 LOD system is horrible, how to get models to stay sharp for a reasonable distance using MCX lod creator

    Here is the link to the model, let me know if it works or not, i dont usually use dropbox. this model does not have any lods, just the basic model. At the airport using the SDk for msfs24, and after building it using fs24, the building disappears at about 75 ft. If i use the msfs2020 version...

    MSFS24 2024 LOD system is horrible, how to get models to stay sharp for a reasonable distance using MCX lod creator

    Thanks Dick, thats kinda what i was wondering. I have done the same using the other option, "vertex clustering" , i was simply wondering if anyone was using this lod maker, and how. as far as changing the xml, i have not tried that, i figured if i changed something in there it might alter the...

    MSFS24 2024 LOD system is horrible, how to get models to stay sharp for a reasonable distance using MCX lod creator

    Thanks. Sketchup. and thats the problem - if i were using blender or another one, i would probably be doing the lods in those programs. But in this case I am simply trying to use a model (shouldnt matter where it was created) and run the lod creator on it to generate lods that would suffice...

    MSFS24 2024 LOD system is horrible, how to get models to stay sharp for a reasonable distance using MCX lod creator

    This is a ongoing discussion, I know. I spent a couple days doing trial and error and I cant seem to get the models to maintain a sharpness that is satisfactory, at least just far enough out from the lod 100 to where they dont turn into a distorted pile of mush. I have tried everything i can...

    MSFS24 Bad texture rendition on some buildings walls

    the problem with make unique textures is that you have 100s and 1000s of textures in the end, it is one of the biggest problems i have with using sketchup. is there a way to remedy this? watching this post closely.

    MSFS24 Generate .xml files for .png textures

    I cant find anything in the material editor where it is possible to generate .xml's along with saving the .png's, and when i export as a msfs package there is no xml with the pngs, it makes an xml along with a gltf, but nothing for the textures! i am using 1.7.0 from 10 29 23, is this the newest...
