• 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.

    AMAZING detail! I love the scratches on the instrument glass and the realistic illumination!!

    Negativity...

    I have seen those who've been a bit harsh but I hope it's more often just being misread... sarcasm definitely doesn't translate well and there are some here who don't speak/write English as their first language which can lead to a post that isn't as friendly as the user wanted. Regardless, I...

    FSX SP1 will not load?

    He must've been made of money... Well, at first I thought it was because I'm a fanatical AMD user, then I thought it was because I upgraded to a Phenom II X6 1100T, then I thought it was memory issues, then I thought it was video driver issues, then audio drivers, then updates... Nothing I...

    FSX SP1 will not load?

    I feel your pain... Had FSX running great on my gaming rig. Then it suddenly, and with no warning, refused to run ever again. I too have uninstalled, wiped my system of FSX, and reinstalled it numerous times with no success. I completely gave up after a weeks worth of stress and...

    Reloading FSX... :(

    Sorry to hear about your infestation. Those trojans and root kits are nasty!! I have to agree. "Bite-the-bullet"... reformat and reinstall. May even resolve some issues you've grown numb to too. I dred the time I will have to do that to my development/gaming machine. I have so many...

    Steam

    I'm on there occasionally... when I feel the need for speed ala GRID. Mostly spending time on the EA Network (NFS:Shift) or Windows LIVE (Dirt 2) because of the racing I do with friends on the weekends... So, how would that work?

    Big international airports and the hit on frames.

    Somewhat on the subject... not related to FSX... I've notice in my many years of flying in FS9 that there are areas where FS just chokes the ol' PC for some reason. One of these was flying over a relatively barren area in the mid-western USA. No structures, no airports, no significant...

    New MS Flight Media Coming Tomorrow (Jan 4th)

    I'll be staying with FS9 and FSX. Everything I've read and videos I've watched about Flight have not impressed me. Even with it being "free", you won't find me there...

    FS2004 Night lighting obsticle

    Hoping not to confuse you and assuming you already know the techniques for creating a ground plane in FS9 using the FS8 SDKs... I create a single plane, no matter how many faces it has, that is the "ground". I apply both a Diffuse (day) bitmap and an Ambient (night) bitmap to it in Gmax...

    FS2004 Night lighting obsticle

    I work and fly 99.9% of the time in FS2004 but I'm in no way an expert... In past works I've created day and night textures with shadows and splashes of "light" using masks during the texture creation and alphas for the transparency. It's tedious because YOU have to think of where the light...

    My latest homebuilt project.

    Simple... but cool. Good work!!

    just lost a friend in the ARMY...

    As a veteran of the USAF, I can tell you that the military can have a serious affect on anyone. It also depends on what's experienced and with whom you surround yourself. I can admit I changed quite a bit when I entered the USAF. I ended up being stationed with a guy I graduated high school...

    I wonder

    I've often had the fantasy of such a combination of simulators especially since I do partake of train, ship, truck, race and flight sims. I'm sure it would be a massively complex undertaking for any one entity to tackle. Maybe that's something for a few years in the future when "the Cloud"...

    FS2004 I'm slowing getting back into it...

    Thank you for the words of advice. The server space my website is hosted from has a massive amount of available space so all is good from my end!

    PHENOMENAL work! The textures and shading are fantastic!

    FS2004 I'm slowing getting back into it...

    ...and figured I'd show off a little of my recent work. Get a little feedback... maybe. As I stated on my website, I'm sporadically working a little bit of a lot of projects and this has been the one I placed the most effort on in the past few weeks. A few years ago I released my basic...

    "Calling the Server" Hallow!!! are you there??? Mayday!! Mayday!!!

    Another one of my points proven... You (we) bought the game, why are you (we) forced to rely on a remote server just to play it? And what happens if you are so lucky to have your account hacked and you're locked out of your account? Fun... fun... FUN!!

    "Calling the Server" Hallow!!! are you there??? Mayday!! Mayday!!!

    I've definitely run into that a few times and have been called that by my wingmen when I whine about them cutting me off when I'm on final for the umpteenth time... I'm a virtual pilot, a virtual engineer, a virtual golfer, a virtual soldier, a virtual adventurer, a virtual trucker, a virtual...
