• 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.

    yes thanks, I did not know about that shader option ... and I am using MCX almost every day !

    Arno, yes you were right, that was the complex shader option ... thanks !

    P3D v5 Weird aircraft rendering

    Ok Arno thanks ! If you can compare an aircraft preview with your latest dev. version and another MCX dev. that you released let say in January maybe you can then make a good comparison (unfortunately I have not stored/kept any of the previous releases)

    P3D v5 Weird aircraft rendering

    Yes Arno, here attached. Not sure you can make your mind based on that one but it is a bit pixelated Vs the former versions of MCX dev. and the texture rendering is different too. When I mention "former versions" of MCX I mean at least three of four former versions not the last one ... you have...

    P3D v5 Weird aircraft rendering

    Hello all, This issue is perhaps more for Arno but if eveyone has a fix please let me know: since the last or the one before last version of MCX dev. version the aircraft rendering/visual is somehow degraded like if it was in low resolution/ low quality texture (unfortunately I do not have the...

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    Lagaffe I just noticed that you are referring to the MSFS SDK. However in the P3D SDK there is no simvar.exe

    thanks Lagaffe !

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    so your code works now ! thanks for the advise. By the way how can I look at the numerical readout of that variable (or another) while in flight ?

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    ok thanks I see what you mean. WIll try this as well.

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    Thanks Lagaffe As I am not a real xml expert do you have an example of what you just explained ?

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    well no luck .. the part never takes the "0" value which is the one it should take when the engine is off right ? The elevator deflection works as expected though and I think the spoiler as well.

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    thanks ! Will test it today and let you know

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    thanks guys for responding. Ok as you said let's be more specific: as Tom said I would like the same part to act as a spoiler (when the spoiler is activated) and otherwise act as an elevator (some jet fighters use that combination). So instead of creating one animation on the parent and...

    P3D v5 Two animations on the same part

    Hi all, I am trying to understand whether it is possible to assign two different animations onto a same moving part: one animation on the model part and another on the SceneGraph Node ? It seems possible using MCX so ... Reason for that is some aircraft use the same moving part for different...

    P3D v5 Canopy Animation

    Hello all, I have written this xml code to animate a jet fighter canopy : <Code> (A:SIM ON GROUND,bool) (A:LIGHT NAV,bool) and (A:GENERAL ENG RPM:1,degrees per second) 0 != and if{ 100 } els{ 0 } </Code> <Lag>100</Lag> The idea here is to have the canopy opening couple minutes before the push...
