• 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.

    MSFS20 Draw Order of GPs

    Hi, I am using MCX to convert ground polys generated using ADE. The workflow works quite well, however as the models tend to get larger....FS seems to ignore Z bias. Here is how it looks in MCX (correctly!): Notice hold short above taxi lines. On the sim, it has random behavior: There is...

    MSFS20 Jetway tilt at deafult position (solved)

    Hi, I have a working jetway model that I made that works great in the default (flat) default position When I tilt it upwards, the hood goes out of whack tried zeroing the origin and applying transforms but no luck. It positions itself too high. What is the correct method once the "emtpy" is...

    MSFS20 Sketchup Import & Nodes

    Hi, Ive successfully imported textured .dae files no issues. I did note that the model comes with several nodes. My intent is to make a jetway out of imported models. Is it ok to leave the modela as is or should I boolean the nodes together? From the tutorial it seems like as long as the...

    MSFS20 Point light intensity (MCX)

    Hi all, I was adding a point light to an object using MCX, and the lowest intensity value I can assign is "1", but it is still too strong. Does anyone know if this is the lowest possible value in MSFS or is it just an MCX tool limitation? I guess I can also make the light color darker...

    MSFS20 Flatten Poly (terraform)

    Hi, I have created a boundary fence about 2km x 1km. Then placed a large flaten poly around the fence boundary, but still some sections of the fence are ok and some are buried out of sight, like the flattening isn't working. Also tried excluding all in case there is a flatten from an FS...

    Blender Custom Jetway process flow

    Hi, I have decided to learn blender just so I can model my own jetways......so I have some basic process questions. I know how to create jetways for Prepar3D using GMax....yes that old! The way I would do it was to model everything in Sketchup, texturize...then import into Gmax to add skin and...

    MSFS20 2024 Ready!

    Tested my scenery of TJPS on 2024, and its 90% there (pre- SDK). It looks like taxiway lights are missing (possibly a GUID change) and the taxiway lines not showing (possibly a projected mesh layering/priority issue) Im pretty happy, except default trees are way too big and will need "trimming".

    MSFS20 Stock Airport Data

    Hi, I currently have an issue with my airport, not sure if new or its been there all along, where my sim native flight planner only shows direct GPS flight planning, and all waypoints for High and Low Altitude IFR won't display (yes I have made sure they are not filtered out). When I disable my...

    MSFS20 Ground Poly Import as Mesh

    I tried loading a P3D Ground Poly as a Projected Mesh...and to my surprise it is not too bad.......except for these line irregularities, which happen every 200ft or so. Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks!

    MSFS20 Light Bloom

    All, trying to figure out how to make the light bloom texture work. This is a fixed red clearance light. Day texture is black, night is black with red spot. Tried the FSX/P3d method of Destination Blend/Source Blend, but black still shows. Is there a recipe that works for MSFS? Thanks!

    MSFS20 Adding Ground Control for jetways

    Hi, I am developing an airport that has a small terminal with jetways, but airport is non-ATC, only CTAF/UNICOM. I have tried adding a ground frequency, but it will not load in the sim (suspect you also need a Tower freq for it to work). Does anyone know if a workaround to either activate...
