• 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 Kiebitz 405 in short finale

    Yes, it takes a lot of time, but when you love it!!!! I think I'll let go of aircraft for a bit to focus on scenery. I'm still in contact with Michel Mangonau, who modeled quite a few Burgundy airfields, but for FSX. I'm going to try to adapt them for MSFS 2020 (I don't have 2024 yet).

    MSFS20 switch Battery and contact key

    HI Lyonya Thank you very much, it works perfectly. I must say that I'm not a coding expert; I often just copy existing examples. But now, thanks to you, I have a new example that I can use in other projects. This is my project page for MSFS 2020, it is an ultra light biplane, the Keibitz 405...

    MSFS20 switch Battery and contact key

    HI LYONYA Sorry, but it's not working properly!! The battery switch immediately pops back on, and the ignition key has no effect on the battery switch. And here are my files as written: Temp_code.xml in the model folder: <ModelBehaviors> <Template Name="Generic_Battery_contact">...

    MSFS20 switch Battery and contact key

    доброго ранку Thanks for your help. Basic animations don't bother me, but as soon as things get complicated, I get lost. Luckily, there are some nice people to help me. So, if I understand correctly, I don't need to change the node IDs in the TempCode.xml file. I'll try it this evening and come...

    MSFS20 switch Battery and contact key

    Hi Lyonya Thank you for your patience and help. Here's what I get: (vidéo) The key works fine but the switch does not move and does not power on the plane. I would like the battery switch to only work if the ignition key is ON I must have forgotten something!! Here is my Temp_code.xml file put...

    MSFS20 switch Battery and contact key

    HI To simplify my question, is it possible to have two independent switches for a single battery, but the second only works if the first is on? For example, a battery disconnect switch and a power switch?

    MSFS20 switch Battery and contact key

    Hi I would like to create a battery switch that can only power up the aircraft when an "contacte key" (anti-theft device) is turned on. The battery switch works fine, but I can't seem to prevent it from operating when the contacte key isn't turned. Since I'm not an XML expert, a little help...

    Thank you Thank you Didier I'll try this code as soon as I get home. Quick question: in Blender, apart from the name and textures, is there anything else to do? A+
