• 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.

    Hi mjahn, Worked through the animation again and checked out the config file although retract times differed by 1 second I reset them both to 10 seconds and that sorted the problem. Just got to find the tutorial I used for the the props to redo them then I can get back to improving the virtual...

    Once again thanks for your help mjahn, followed your first suggestion and it worked. Funny thing is the right hand gear retracts in about ten seconds but the left hand gear takes about a minute. Will delete all the animation keys for the left side and redo the animation.

    Hi There, Thanks to those who helped with the problems I had previously I can now show the progress I have made. Attached are two external shots how things look at present. I still have a couple problems, the most baffling concerns the undercarriage. When exporting after doing the animation...

    Thanks mjahn, Have spent quite a few hours today trying to resize just the Lancaster FUZ without much success. Managed to reproduce the Lancaster view problems by making a simple aircraft (block fuz and two block wings) and when compiled it had the same faults as the Lancaster, so used SELECT...

    Thanks MJAHN did your TEST No. 1 in all 6 views and in each case the model filled the view so assume there were no more rogue vertices. Had also tried TEST No.2 with just the Fuz but still had the same problems. Not to sure how to go about TEST No.3, never used links but will read up about it...

    Thanks Tom, pleased to hear you have used Gmax files from V1 into V2. Following a long layoff from Gmax I am beginning to get back into it but it still takes me a long time to do simple operations hence the long delays between replies. Will have a go at converting from feet to metres with a...

    Hi, Eventually I found 4 stray vertexes and managed to eliminate delete them as Tom suggested but still have the same problem. Also changed the settings to meters but this produced a massive aircraft. The view out of the cockpit window shows the aircraft on the runway threshold but the tower...

    Many Thanks mjahn, Sorry about the double post. Thanks for your 2nd suggestion I am in the process of selecting half of the objects but as yet not found the culprit. If this fails I will then try your first suggestion of using an EDIT MESH MODIFIER Have previously constructed a new (INTERIOR)...

    Thanks jdberb, Going to have a go at the scaling problem. Feel quite sure the problem is within Gmax not FS9 config file.

    Thanks Tom, Gmax was not set in Meters nor was it in the version I produced with Gmax V1. and that worked fine. When producing the MDL file it did give a warning to that effect. But it used to do this with Gmax V1 and the flight model worked fine. However I will do as you suggest. I did also...
