• 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.

    FSXA help creating xml code for groundspeed based animation

    Should have read 200 for both. Figured that out later. Sorry. One more question, after a bit of testing, I notice that the vibration speeds up with velocity which is logical as this is what we asked it to do. Is there any way to eliminate this because the wobble is negligible understandably and...

    FSXA help creating xml code for groundspeed based animation

    Copied and pasted. I have no real knowledge of xml syntax so wouldn't be able to spot a mistake if there was one. Must admit I have never had that happen to me before. A few more grey hairs for me. Have to look at buying shares in a hair dye company. Lol.

    Don't know what I did wrong but that code caused a failure to load the modeldef file into 3dsMax. Any ideas?

    As the title says, I need some assistance with xml code for a part that will animate between 10 and 100 knots. I am creating a light business jet and in all videos I have seen, during taxi and takeoff, the aircraft wobbles very snappily from side to side and I would like to implement this...

    FSXA landing light intensity varies with angle

    No, have done none of that. Are there any tutorials regarding the frenell effects as I dont believe I know what i'm doing in this area at all. Tried viewing the fresnell dds file of another aircraft only to get an access violation message in dxt2bmp.

    FSXA landing light intensity varies with angle

    Could any of you kind people help? I am after implementing landing lights the intensity of which varies based on the angle at which you view them. One of the GA developers do this very well and I have tried almost everything to recreate this effect to no avail. I am working in 3ds max 2012 with...

    VERTICAL SITUATION DISPLAY

    As suspected from the flightplan

    VERTICAL SITUATION DISPLAY

    I assume the gauge is taking that information from the flightplan loaded from the sim flightplanner. When I get home I will look at the gauge code a bit closer.

    VERTICAL SITUATION DISPLAY

    No, its all eye candy at the moment only. The waypoints, airplane icon and altitude line are functional though. Would be great if you could show me how to add altitude info as well then I could simulate different altitude segments as well. Thanks for the reply. Regards TJ

    Hi sorry for the delay in replying. Ok so here goes, I am a complete newbie at gauge programming with no knowledge on c++. I have a limited grasp on xml to the extent that I am able to edit xml gauges to roughly get them to do what I want. The first image (Wishlist) is the real world vsd...

    Weather radar gauge - VC overlay impossible?

    Hi Roland, sorry to dredge up an old topic but I would like to try and continue your efforts to overlay your weather gauge over a gauge in a vc that I am working on. Would you be able to send me a copy of the transparent wxr gauge for me to experiment with. Would very much appreciate it. Kind...
