• 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.

    GMAX Installation Instructions (Well, Maybe, partial instructions)

    Step-by-step GMAX FSX Gamepack instructions are not available. I can only imagine a Newbie trying to setup GMAX to use with the FSX Gamepack. Microsoft provides setup and examples for 3DSM7 but very little for GMAX. Since I don't consider myself a Newbie in the use of GMAX; been using it...

    FSX GMAX startup error

    Yes, NET.2.0 framework is installed. I even downloaded and reinstalled. Oh, well, I'll get it sorted one day. TA-DA! Got it sorted. Just seems stupid!! I reread the SDK overview. Got to the: Development Software Microsoft ® Visual C++ 2005 or Microsoft ® Visual C++ 2005 Express...

    FSX GMAX startup error

    My file is the same as yours. I downloaded the SDK again, but it is also the same file size, date, etc. I read through the sdk documents and feel I have all the necessary files installed. I hate to try loading gmax on my FSX system, just to see if it works properly. Regards,

    FSX GMAX startup error

    Yes, I do have the updated sdk on the same drive as gmax. I also dummied up registry entries for FSX from my other machine that has FSX and installed them to the GMAX machine. I reran the ConfigSDK after inserting the registry entries. It reset all the *.config files to the dummy directory...

    FSX GMAX startup error

    Hi Arno, I deleted the FSX gamepack I had in GMAX, ran the ConfigSDK, and then copied the FSX gamepack again. I didn't see any updated files in the gamepack. I know most of you have FSX on the same computer as GMAX. I just need to know if this is a prerequisite or not. Regards,

    FSX GMAX startup error

    I just installed the FSX GMAX gamepack into GMAX. An error states the gmax_FSModelExp.dle did not initialize. This of course renders GMAX useless for designing. I can place the FS2004 FSModelExp.dle in the FSX\\..\plugin folder and it opens normally. I tried downloading the SDK again to...
