• 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.

    FSX GMAX Material Editor not available after Windows 10 upgrade

    Isolating "gmax_MaxUtils.gup" and "gmax_MaxXML.gup" shows my model all black but Material Navigator works well. Obviously these files are related to MN. Has someone found the solution?

    Thanks Tom, I think that making a little more job we can find a general rule to avoid the trial and error thing.

    FSX Special Animation

    Finally I found something that works for me, and I would like to share it with all you guys. 1- I create the upper and lower objects in gmax. 2- I used Look-At Constaint to set the Keyframes for each part, Upper and Lower objects. The objects are then perfectly aligned. 3- I clone these objects...

    Thanks, Well, I went trough the topics you explain before. First I reset XForm, then I used Look At constraint. Is a very powerful function, and it works neat for making animations in Gmax. Once I collapse my rotation to frames I saw that the rollout related to Look At constraint disappear. This...

    Thank you guys, I verified my animation controllers and are set to Linear. I didn't remember when I did it. Now, I have to update myself about the Reset XForm and Look At constraints. I'll be back soon.

    Thaks hairspin and tgibson for your answers. I have tried the way tgibson propose but it didn't work for me, after that I tested something very similar to your proposition and I still have problems. This is why I posted this thread. Here are some view of what I have done. I pictured frame...

    GMAX: How can I set the motion tags for an object who is affected by a landing bogey tilt rotation and at the same time by compression? I'm using FSXA

    FSX Gmax - Landing/Taxi Lights for FSXA

    I found the solution. I reset the textures and apply it again adding the night textures. I still have to go deeper in this to understand why.

    FSX Gmax - Landing/Taxi Lights for FSXA

    Sorry to bother you again. I have 5 different Lightmap textures and just the one, used for front and aft fuselage works. I did exactly the same for the other 4. Even I tried to change the Emissive Mode from MultiplyBlend to AdditiveNightOnly and Blend but It doesn't work. As you can see in my...

    Great, it works. I think I would never be able to find it by myself and you save me of no having anymore eyebrows. I really appreciate it.

    FSX Gmax - Landing/Taxi Lights for FSXA

    That's funny! Thanks n4gix. I got it working neat now. I already did my night textures. How can apply it to the model? . I don't see any spot in Material Editor (Gmax). Do I have to add _l or _lm to the name?

    FSX Gmax - Landing/Taxi Lights for FSXA

    Thanks Heretic, something is happening now, but I still have to orient it better. The intensity is very low. I suppose that adding more polygones will add it more brightness.

    FSX Gmax - Landing/Taxi Lights for FSXA

    Hi, My lights doesn't show up. I have done this: 1- I used a line to make a closed triangle that I placed in from of my lamp object. (In green) 2- I moved the Gizmo (Affect Pivot Only) to make the z axis point opposite to the supposed light direction. 3- Using Attach Point Tool in FS Tools, I...
