• 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.

    P3D v2 Colorado Springs Airport (KCOS)

    Hello again! Took a couple of days to get some minor issues sorted out, then was able to get back to work. Here's some of the latest additions (it's not much, but it's something): Some minor tweaks to the runway textures. I tried some new texturing techniques for higher visual fidelity, and...

    P3D v2 Colorado Springs Airport (KCOS)

    After years of flying in and out of the default version of KCOS in the simulator and hating the way it looked, I decided the time has come for me to dust off the SDK and see what I could do to bring it up to snuff. After a few days, things are coming along (albeit slowly). Some very early work...

    P3D v2 Possible bug in ground poly function

    I posted about an issue I've been getting over on the Lockheed forums about ground polys clipping through the terrain in P3D v2. After a little over two days of troubleshooting, I think I may have found a minor problem with the latest release of ModelConverterX. When exporting ground polys, MCX...

    P3D v2 Terrain flatten does not get compiled

    Ah, well that explains it...now I gotta figure out where it's been outputting the CVX files...

    P3D v2 Terrain flatten does not get compiled

    I have discovered that when I try to add a flatten polygon, it does not show up in the exported file. I'm really confused as to why, because any other changes I make are saved just fine, but if I import the airport from the exported BGL, terrain flattens don't show up. Near as I can tell, they...

    Centennial Airport (KAPA)

    Awesome! I live in Colorado, and I gotta say, I've always been annoyed by how under-represented this area is in the FS community. There's a lot here to explore! Great to see someone finally developing something from around here :D

    Looking for texture artist...

    I am currently working on a scenery addon for Denver International Airport (FSX only). The addon has custom ground textures, ground polys, buildings, etc. Ground polys are im place, but I have decided after spending several days making texture sheets that I will need to farm some of the work...

    DirectX10 preview in FSX. Who leave it on?

    I think I read somewhere that all scenery exported in a native FSX format will work in DirectX 10 mode. However, that being said, that means anything exported in an FS2004 format (including port-overs from FS9 to FSX) will most likely have issues in DX10. For example, FlyTampa Buffalo appears to...

    FSXA New to terrain creation?

    Can anyone tell me what programs I need to handle geotiff's?

    FSXA New to terrain creation?

    I tried that. Upon running resample.exe with the raw data and inf file, it said it couldn't open the .tif and did not produce a bgl.

    FSXA New to terrain creation?

    I'm working on a custom scenery for FSX. In terms of adding buildings, ground polys, textures and whatnot, I have a fairly good idea of what I'm doing, and I'd like to go the extra mile and add custom mesh to it. However, I don't know how to go about doing this. I've downloaded terrain data from...

    Cannot load background image?

    Thank you for helping with this. It would take me years to figure this out :P

    Cannot load background image?

    Okay, so I've played around with it a bit more and now it seems that the problem again comes down to the area covered by the photos. I have split the original into several parts and backed each of them down to a 1024x1024 resolution, but now I can only import 3 of the images, and the program (I...

    Cannot load background image?

    So if I crop the image into four sections and import them separately I can make it work, then? Sounds reasonable. I'll see if it does the trick.

    Cannot load background image?

    Okay, so after a little bit of experimentation, I've discovered something I didn't expect. As it turns out, the file size and resolution are not the problem here. Nor is the airport itself causing the problem (I tested this with several other stock airports and it worked at all of them). I...

    Cannot load background image?

    Whoops! Sent a new one :P I tried doing that but no matter what resolution or format I use it just won't import. I've tried jpg's, png's, bmp's, etc, and a variety of resolutions from 512x512 all the way up to 4096x4096.

    Cannot load background image?

    Sorry, what I meant was that I can do everything else normally. All of the other features work, but I get the error message "could not load image" whenever I try to import a photo and set the corner coordinates. It behaves the same as it would if the file were simply too large to import (even...

    Cannot load background image?

    It doesn't crash upon this error. It just refuses to let me enter the coordinates manually. If this won't be fixed until the next update, is there a place I can download an older version of the program?

    Cannot load background image?

    I have been trying for close to an hour to get an image to load into ADE. I have checked that it is the right size, and the right format. It works when I do a straight import, however if I try to add it by manually entering in the corner coordinates it say it can't load it. Help! :eek:
