• 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, Is it possible to set an effect's parameters so the effect displays on one day of the week only, say every Monday? Best regards, Dave.

    P3D v4 FS9 to P3Dv4 Model Conversion - Flap Animation Length Adjust?

    Hi Tom, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but the code I've copied and modified isn't working. Here's the Left Flap code I added to the modeldef.xml:- <Animation name="l_flap_50_percent" guid="480ba8f3-f4c0-4317-a73a-77a2fba8bfbd" length="30" type="Sim" typeparam2="l_flap_50_percent"...

    Hi All, Is there any way to shorten the length of an amination sequence? The flaps animation of an FS9 model I'm converting travel from '0' position all the way under the wing. Thank you, Dave.

    So true Paul, I'm currently butchering away at using a background image in GMax... No problem at all with the co-ordinates etc. but GMax runs apparently runs out of memory, even with a 11Mb bmp! I've done this before so I'll solve it :banghead::banghead::banghead:

    Hi bob5568, Thanks very much for the reply! You're right, I should have clarified the goal I was after... Actually, here's one I prepared earlier - I got so frustrated that I remodelled the fuselage from scratch to prove to myself that I had the Boolean process right! With the new fuselage the...

    FSX Gmax Boolean Advice

    I'm making a Boolean cut into my fuselage, but it's cutting out the whole section rather than leaving me a nice surface to model my exhaust nozzels. I've cut out the fuselage for both main gear storage already with no problem. Could anyone help please?
