• 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 Tunnel/Overpass Mesh Editing

    Hi there, I'm no expert in mesh editing, and I mean at all. How would one do precise mesh editing to create tunnels/overpasses like this one? Default MFS tools do not allow this level of precision and often produce jagged edges, falloff values do nothing. Thanks

    Use water elevation from DEM

    Hi, let's say i have a 1m mesh for a large area and the area includes a lot of rivers. As the mesh also covers the water surface, the original water polys have a different altitude, so the rivers are most of the time elevated. I further have a water shp file from OSM but it looks too complex to...

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    I have a greyscale height image for an island I originally made for SimCity 4, but I would like to use it as a mesh for FS9 to import using SBuilder.
