• 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 Gloster-Napier IVB WIP

    I posted about this plane a while ago in the "I'm working on aircraft..." thread, and I thought I'd post a thread of updates for those interested! Since the first post, I've found some really good pictures to clear up most of the details I was missing (though still no photos of the cockpit). The...

    MSFS20 Propeller Animation in Blender

    Yep, have Alpha Mode set to Blend. I even tried it with a new texture, just a transparent 1024x1024px square from GIMP. Still just a white circle. Here are my rendering settings, and the shader (should be as-generated, but maybe I'm missing something?).

    MSFS20 Missing Transparency in Blurred Propeller

    Hi all, I have the albedo map from the default Cessna 152 propeller mapped onto a low-poly, rather lentil-shaped mesh for my blurred prop. It appears with transparency (though no gradation?) in Blender, but shows up as an opaque disk, albedo applied, in the sim! I'm using the MSFS Standard...

    Airfoil Resources

    Hi all, I found these two sites that seem wonderfully useful! First, a table of aircraft and their respective airfoils: https://m-selig.ae.illinois.edu/ads/aircraft.html And, some helpful tools for getting numbers to put into your flight model, once you know which airfoil to use...

    MSFS20 Propeller Animation in Blender

    Thank you, that worked perfectly! And showed me another issue...if I may ask, what shader is used for the blurred prop? I have the albedo map from the default Cessna 152 mapped onto a low-poly rather lentil-shaped mesh. It appears with transparency (though no gradation) just fine in Blender, but...

    MSFS20 Propeller Animation in Blender

    Hi all, I'm having some trouble animating a propeller in Blender. I've successfully animated all of my control surfaces (tested in sim), and tried the same approach to animating the blurred propeller, using the Cessna 152's .xml file as my template. Unlike the control surface animations, the...

    I'm working on aircraft... (2020)

    For anyone wanting to take a rather fast tour of Venice, may I recommend the Gloster IVB. Still many details to add, but hopefully presentable, at least for the purpose of this thread!
