• 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.

    CFS 2 FSDS V2

    Hey everyone. Haven't been around in a while. Been years actually. I bought FSDS because I wanted to make bulletholes on all my old models and as you can see the only copy I could find came minus a users manual. That also means no product key. I don't know how you might feel about letting me use...

    FS2004 Distorted small parts

    I really am perplexed by this as my knobs are getting crunched like they were aluminum foil on export. I know that the exporter does weld vertexes that are within 1 mm so I welded everything on my model to that distance. I used middle man and turned off optimization and weld points. really don't...

    FS2002 Cfs2

    I'm having some serious problems getting my FS2004 aircraft to convert to CFS2. Using a model converter MDLC V.117 I can get the aircraft to work sometimes on CFS2. Other times I have to remove all the animations and continuously tweak my model in Gmax 2004 to get it to work. I'm wondering if...

    FS2002 Error units are 1024 units per meter

    What does this error mean exactly? I took my 2004 model and used model converterX to make my interior/exterior x files. Then i used the 2002 compiler to output the model and this is what i get in the error log.

    FSXA Smoothing Groups Lost in FSX

    I've been making great strides learning the texturing process in FSXA. It's looking pretty good now but the smoothing on the polies in the top three rows and bottom three rows along the length of my fuselage look like the wireframe are imposed into the shape. Anyone ever seen that?
