• 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 Change default aircraft flight dynamic

    Any more info on this? I can't find a thing other then your post. The Cessna Longitude is in serious need of some tweaking.

    G-force Blackout Effect - how do they do that?

    Sorry - Nauto-kun - I didn't mean to belittle the pursuit of knowledge... just that this feature alone was not worthy of that kind of effort. Anthony - That's in interesting idea and thinking outside the box at that!

    G-force Blackout Effect - how do they do that?

    Yes - I did search the forum and downloaded one of the packages to examine it. The key enabler seems to be the use of (>K:VIEW_PANEL_ALPHA_SET) command, which I wish to avoid because it's potential for nasty side-effects is too great. Thanks all for wading in. I think I'll let this one slide...

    G-force Blackout Effect - how do they do that?

    I should mention that I did come up with one way: Create a full screen panel window with a black background, then use (>K:VIEW_PANEL_ALPHA_SET) to control it's transparency. The visual effect is the similar, but unfortunately you lose access to your VC clickspots (not very good if you're trying...

    G-force Blackout Effect - how do they do that?

    I'd like to do something similar to the high G blackout effect done in FSX - (screen slowly fades to black for high-G forces) to simulate pilot oxygen deprivation in my aircraft. Seems like it should be simple, but I can't figure out how! Can anyone help me? Thanks! Brian

    FSXA STEERING_SET

    I was looking into this today for my own project. It appears to me that the STEERING_SET is summed with the rudder position, so a statement like "0 (>K:STEERING_SET)", doesn't actually set the steering direction to 0, but rather, sets the offset from the rudder position to 0 (i.e. does nothing)...

    Can one 'read' throttle movement speed?

    Thank you Tom! That is exactly the sort of thing I'd like to do. I shall look into this. Is there a good SIMVARS reference you can suggest?

    Can one 'read' throttle movement speed?

    Working on a simulated compressor stall myself and came across your post. Doesn't the TOGGLE_ENGINE1_FAILURE completely kill the engine until you restart it? I thought a compressor stall typically resulted in a momentary loss of thrust which would often recover on it;s own or with a reduction in...

    FSX Can I turn Com Radio 'Off'

    I am currently using 121.475, which is identified as a protection band for 121.50. With luck, I'll never find anyone broadcasting in FSX on that frequency regardless of location. I would guess that the test flight bands are probably silent on FSX as well? 118.000 - 121.400 Air Traffic Control...

    FSX Can I turn Com Radio 'Off'

    After spinning my wheels for a bit, this approach seems to be yielding results. It's a bit fiddly, but it's working. Thanks!

    FSX Can I turn Com Radio 'Off'

    Thanks for the reply, but I think you've misunderstood my goal. I simply want to stop any FSX generated radio chatter if I've turned off the command radio in my VC. It seems that if I have a radio in my aircraft and it's tuned to a valid frequency, you'll going to hear ATC at some point.

    FSX Can I turn Com Radio 'Off'

    An XML NOOB here (and my first post)... so I'll try not to embarrass myself. I'm working on an aircraft who's com radio has an on/off switch. Pouring through the SDK, I simply cannot see a way to disable the com radio audio or otherwise turn it off. Is there a way or an alternate strategy (like...
