• 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.

    Max 8 setup problems

    As far as I know, NO, Max9 will not work with the current tool set. Tis an aweful lot of money to spend on Max, and, as a beginner, I'd advise to learn gmax before considering purchasing such expensive software. gmax is a cut down version of 3DsMax 4.2 as fas as I understand it.

    Objects on one side of Model becoming Transperant

    They're not transparent, they're "flipped polygons". Reset X-Form of the bad parts, if the polys flip (which they should), convert them to editable mesh (or add an edit mesh modifier), select all polygons (in poly mode) and click "Flip normals". The convert to aditable poly again if you like...

    Does anyone here use 3DSMax 8? re Panda exporter

    Just send Andy an email, I'm sure he'll accomodate. You are a donator are you not? :D 4.6.61.0 is the version you probably want to get.

    Max 8 setup problems

    Jeez, how can you afford 3DsM 7 & 8 licenses? You must have some serious dough! :eek: Are you an autodesk subscriber? I let mine lapse shortly after I received the Max 8 upgrade, which I had to chase up as I had changed addresses between moving and updating my autodesk address details. I...

    Max 8 setup problems

    OK, been fidelling around some more and have got this all working. First, what I did, is I manually edited the FSToolsMenu.ms (MaxScript) file to point directly to the SDK directory. This got everything working after I ran the script, except for the animation manager. The script was falling...

    Max 8 setup problems

    Thanks for the replies, the instructions I have say: That's exactly what I've done. I've also tried installing them elsewhere, though I did figure that would be an excercise in futility, and it was ;) The probelm seems to be the failure to load the "MaxUtils.gup" file, as this file...

    Max 8 setup problems

    Hi All, Read a couple of posts regarding some SDK problems with Max 8 but cannot find an answer. Just built a new PC and installed a clean copy of Max 8 (been holding off updating from Max 7 until I built this machine). Anyway, after configuring the plugins path, I am getting a persistant...
