• 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.

    Great scenery. Just took a flight from Cairo, and all I can say is WOW! Amazing work, and even more amazing, you're giving it away for free! You're a true gentleman.

    Newbie questions about texturing

    Hi all! I'm a newbie at FSX/P3D scenery design, but have undertaken a major FREEWARE project. I want to recreate a small town as faithfully as possible by removing all autogen and creating a blend of object library and custom made buildings. I'm going to use Sketchup for the 3D models, but have...

    FSX Default scenery library objects disappearing

    I think your sleep might have done you and me good Gary! I have used these objects extensively, so that might be it! That is probably why removing some of the bgls helps solve the problem, it doesn't matter which, just that I remove some of them, hence reducing the amount of similar objects in...

    FSX Default scenery library objects disappearing

    Thanks for the reply. I still don't see why the same objects fail to show in Prepar3D v2.4 which has no IS3 connection whatsoever.

    FSX Default scenery library objects disappearing

    I have encountered a strange problem. I'm just finnishing up an airport scenery project in FSXA with ADE 1.65. I've been using Instant Scenery v3.03 to place some stock scenery objects at, and around the airport. Suddenly a few selected objects have disappeared from view (at least the...

    How to create a texture from scratch

    Anyone know a good tutorial on how to create a texture (to use on a 3D model) from scratch? I dabble with scenery creation using Airport Design Editor, Instant Scenery 2 and Instant Object Studio. I now want to create textures to use on airport buildings from photographs. I am a 20 year...

    Good job! Good Job Arno! A great tutorial for us beginners. As a phortographer for 15 years I have one little tips for taking the photographs. Photograph outdoor objets in overcast conditions! It gives flat even lighting (no ugly shades) to the thing you photograph and the sky is easily...

    No HUD and MFD in EH101 and F/A-18 in FSX?

    After several reinstalls (where I couldn't get TrackIR to work either - it worked in FS9 and FS8 though!) I found the soulution to the problem. Reinstall with AVG Anti-Virus turned off. It is probably simconnect.dll that causes the problem with the anti-virus program.

    No HUD and MFD in EH101 and F/A-18 in FSX?

    Hi folks! I've tried several other forums and searched google for a week trying to solve a problem. The MFDs and HUD in the EH101 and F/A-18 are dead. I've had them working before so it shouldn't be a hardware issue. I've got a pretty clean install of FSX Acceleration, just FS Global, FSD...

    Getting ready to publish - how?

    Hi, I'm just getting ready to publish a scenery of Dewey Moore Airstrip in Idaho (I'm making all the airstrips featured in the DVD Idaho Exposed). I've had to change the alt. of the airport and wondered if I'd be needing to include the bgl-file made by ADE in world/scenery folder? If anyone...

    Freeware object libraries?

    Matt, eh... sorry Graham :) - I get dyslectic at the end of a long day in the office... I was just reading a post by MatthewS in the FSX KML forum! FS design has probably grown because people are better with computers today than 10 years ago, the Internet and not to forget the superb...

    A fully customizable FS

    I'd like to see the next FS deLuxe version delivered with user friendly software to completely customize the scenery of FS. That means creating a software to compliment FS that has features found in games like The Sims, Sim City, Railroad Tycoon etc. to build whole sceneries with a graphical...

    Freeware object libraries?

    Matt, My understanding is that making things more user friendly is the responsibility of those with knowledge of how to do so. I live by the golden rule: Do to others what you want others to do for you. I think flight simming and scenery design is a fun hobby and I see nothing wrong in...

    Freeware object libraries?

    The thought would be that such a library would act as an expansion of the stock objects in FSX. The point isn't to include every object avaiable, but make a nice collection of objects that isn't covered (or designed well) in FSX. From what I've seen over at AVSIM there aren't many updates...

    Freeware object libraries?

    The point would be to download a pretty large file, or several, but if that collection is used by many devlopers it would be a one time download - for both designers and users of many sceneries. It would take some effort, but if I get the support of some of the designers I will give it a go...
