• 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.

    MSFS20 Problem with ILS "The localizer is not correct"

    From what I can see it's possible you are missing one statement - the ILsReference and I seem to remember that the frequency has to be a set number of decimal points. Here's my line from YMLT that fixes the ILS that was (and maybe) still screwed. WHere you have positioned it is OK...

    MSFS20 Need Help with Adding Grass

    I’m not quite sure anyone understands quite what you mean. If you add grass to an airport by way of a polygon or apron you will see grass rendered when sitting at a parking spot or flying over. You must of course, have clicked FLY at the airport. If you are expecting to see grass and other...

    Time to Retire

    Jon. Enjoy the retirement. Maybe you’ll have time to fly… Kelly Slater gave up surfing to go surfing 🤣 I retired and am still working. Thanks for all the work, chats and news form your side of the world. Stay safe!

    MSFS20 MSFS Identifies My project as a Water runway

    That’s it. I was replying to you from memory and had no access to the Sim to qualify the name. At least you found it!!

    MSFS20 MSFS Identifies My project as a Water runway

    Try making the surface Jira Grass then untick as transparent. Not all surfaces work correctly when transparent. I have found that Jira Grass will work best

    FSXA Airports have been ghosted.

    Hi. It’s nothing like FSX. A whole different world and set up. You don’t touch the BGLs supplied. Simply place your built project in the Community folder and MSFS loads it after the default BGLs and stock providings. You need to read up on how MSFS developers place their stuff. Having said this...

    MSFS20 Is it possible to add Surface Painted Taxiway Direction Signs with ADE 2020 alpha 18?

    Hi. If I’m understanding what you’re asking… in Dev mode to achieve taxiway markings you add an apron and elevate it by 1. You then add a material to it (512x512) and use the sliders to move it within the apron. Can supply images of required. Jon, it was something I was asking you about months...

    MSFS20 Clear windows to use in MSFS from Blender

    Oh thanks for this. What you say makes absolute sense and obviously I had no idea! Being a 'novice' some or many of the options don't really mean anything and it's quite difficult with trial and error. Sometimes the manual doesn't quite elude to the attributes real purpose... Again, thanks for...

    MSFS20 Clear windows to use in MSFS from Blender

    Can anyone tell me why these windows are "shaded" one side and clear on the other? I have rotated the Blender face 180d but it makes no difference. I want them clear both sides with a little reflection on the outside. Outside: Inside With the following Blender settings and I've run out of...

    How do I apply night lighting to a scenery object

    Hi guys. I’m flattered that you’ve been discussing one of my projects! John, the lighthouse has windows all around in the lantern room but the light source is in a small box. It’s the box I rotate. I used the method described by Flying Theeson but with some modifications. Philip
