• 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.

    MSFS [SOLVED] MSFS Runway Start position offset issue

    Have you positioned the starting points for the runway correctly on the centerline?

    PBR materials shinning alot.

    Good tools if you have the separate files to be converted and combined! Shadermap is a little bit different as it can produce the comp and norm files directly from a single picture - that is what I use it a lot for (when having photos of airport buildings and such).

    PBR materials shinning alot.

    Nice. If you are doing more texturing work and want to use PBR materials, then I recommend an excellent piece of software called Shadermap (https://shadermap.com/home/). I have a template for the MSFS style PBR materials, and can easily make a good set of PBR files from any texture image or...

    PBR materials shinning alot.

    I think we can clearly see on the picture that the roof and the plaster walls are very shiny and reflective. At least the plaster shouldn't be... He's probably using a plain roughness file in place of a proper comp file...

    PBR materials shinning alot.

    IS your comp texture made according to the sdk? Red channel=Ambient Occlusion, Green channel=Roughness and Blue channel=Metalness. They must be done correctly to work. Too much shininess is mainly caused by too low roughness (too dark) or to strong metalness (too light). You have a file with...

    MSFS Blender - FS2020 Glass again again ....

    Why would you have to separate the glass? I do not think it is necessary. Just make a material for the window faces. Set MSFS Standard type. Blend mode to Alpha blend. Tick Backface Culling and Show Backface. Base color to black (or some dark color blue, green if it should be tinted glass). Set...

    MSFS Helipad Lights and Taxi

    You can place the light row vertices at each point where there should be a light and then just tick "Snap to vertices" - then there will be one light at each point! No need to make small lightrows and duplicate...

    MSFS Several updates to my Finnish add-ons

    Several updates have been made to my Finnish add-ons during the last month. The MSFS World Update 15 required some changes and some other airports have been improved too. You can find all my freeware add-ons and links to other Finnish and Nordic add-ons at my site FSAddons.fi The new billboard...

    Purchasing a second copy of MSFS

    A new purchase would make no difference. The purchase would only contain the same program stub that you already have. You have to first of all go into your library in the MS Store (or Steam if you purchased from Steam) using the same user-ID that you used when purchasing MSFS (Important!) and...

    Help with Services.xml

    Ok, that would explain why I don't have trucks and buses on my small airports, as I have set them to small in the airport settings!

    Help with Services.xml

    I suppose you substituted "ICAO' in the path with the ICAO code of your airport? Just checking, as I do not have that problem on my airports... I wonder if I have some modified livingworld file somewhere - have to check it out tomorrow... Are you spawned on the airport in an airliner or in some...

    MSFS Global AI Ship Traffic FSX, P3D and MSFS2020

    Very nice indeed. I hope that the new ownership of FleetMon does not affect your plans negatively. Asobo should do something about the problem with reflections/shadows at the stern of the ships. It is starting the reflections/shadows in the water from the very stern tip and not from the point...
