• 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.

    SDK SimObjects!

    I want to make some objects that shows only during winter/summer and I understand that this can be done by creating SimObjects. However, are there any good assets that explain how this can be done in an easy way? The documentation for the sim is too confusing for me so I would prefer something...

    MSFS24 Remove default antenna/mast?

    Hi! Working on an airport where there is a large mast/antenna in the area. The sim has this antenna by default, but I have made my own that looks more like the real thing. In SDK I make an Exclusion rectangle en set the option excludeAllObjects. The antenna disappears and I place my own antenne...

    MSFS24 Convert materials from MSFS2020 to MSFS2024?

    Yes I understand what the case is today, but many of my models was made years ago. I thought there was a way to convert materials from those early days, but as you now has explained....its not possible...which is crap since its a lot of work to do this manually. Anyway, thanks for the info! :)

    MSFS24 Convert materials from MSFS2020 to MSFS2024?

    Hi! This is the problem. In the days when I started to work in blender and make models, I made materials by using the surface panel and I exported it fine with the old MSFS2020 exporter. Maybe I had to use the MSFS materials panel when it comes to making materials with texture...I can't really...

    MSFS24 Convert materials from MSFS2020 to MSFS2024?

    Hmmm....not sure. How do you convert step by step? I open the blender file with the 2020 model and then I select MSFS2024 on the top bar menu in blender and select convert scene? After I do that, most of my materials shows a color in the blender preview. If I go manually and select Standard in...

    I have a lot of models that was created for MSFS2020 in Blender. Now I want to convert these for use in MSFS2024. But I have a problem that I manually has to set the material properties like metal, roughness etc. in the MSFS2024 materaials tab. Is there another way that does this automatically...

    Blender won't export textures.

    Hmmm...what happened is that I got an error message "source path not found". Then saved and chose unpack. Got several choices on hov to save the files. Chose one and saved again. Then I tried to export and got a lot of error messages. However, it made a texture folder (not where I wanted it)...

    Blender won't export textures.

    "Keep original" was unticked so that was not the problem. But where is the pack and unpack textures option?

    Blender won't export textures.

    Hi! I am using Blender 3.3.9 and the Asobo exporter 1.3.2. For some reason the exporter creates .bin, .gltf and .xml files, but it will not export textures and the xml-files connected to the textures. The folder is simply empty. Any ideas?
