• 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.

    Photogrammetry Airport Exclusions

    Is the photoprogrammetry from Microsoft? Or was it created from another source? Is it possible you are seeing the airport for a few seconds before the photoprogrammetry layers over it? If the photoprogrammetry is from say Google maps, then there is no tin or data, there is just one giant...

    MSFS20 New helipads and third party heli's compatibility

    I am not sure I understand. In this case the heliport is flat on the ground. It's not that the helicopter is falling through. It's not being put where the designated helipad is but rather latterly where the airport creation point is. BUT only if it is a third part helicopter using the...

    MSFS20 New helipads and third party heli's compatibility

    Hi all, I am sure some of you are aware that by default only the default msfs heli's work on the new pads. There is a work around: In aircraft.cfg The ui_typerole needs to be set to Rotorcraft for spawning on helipads. However there must be something else that needs too be done as the...

    Swapping models depending on weather

    Right simobject first -> then script. Originally I was going to do something like you have above,the downside is that boats and people can just appear again on Tuesday when it's just a touch warmer even though the areas are closed. So im look for a seasonal switch say November until may where...

    Swapping models depending on weather

    So since the canada update is out and there were no major changes to my banff area other than some terraforming work I think the best choice is to remove the boats from the lakes during the winter, and then I can add winter stuff to replace them. I have dozens of boats with guids, is there a...

    Swapping models depending on weather

    Oh cool! You might be right about the seasons, but I thought the lakes would still unthaw if the temperatures were above 0c in the winter? In which case I would have a bunch of very wet ice fishers lol Love your work btw, I'm using some of it!

    Swapping models depending on weather

    I saw a question below about activation of activity based on time of day, and obviously there is the simple day/night switch in blender. I am curious if there is a season / temperature switch that is similar. I have scenery the uses boats and summer activities half of the year but then lakes...

    Animals animation : looking for a tutorial

    From what I understand, the tools are not available yet for this to happen, animations and such are easy enough, but the pathway system simply does not work. There's a few people on the msfs discord server that have been working on it since the game came out with very little success.

    MSFS20 Creating a new tree category

    Hi all, This idea is very early in my brain so bare with me. Post forest fire trees. I am in a mountain area so I only know what that looks like. I don't mean right after a fire, but 2-3 years. You have alot of bare trees, lots of green on the ground, some small firs growing. I am curious...

    Adding variable so custom object disappears

    Hi all, I have a scenery with a lake and some custom boats in the mountains, as such the lake is often frozen with real weather turned on. I am curious if there is a 'switch or variable' I can add to the boats xml to make them disappear or only appear when the water is unfrozen. Or even...
