• 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.

    Was there a fix for glass windows appearing black through fog?

    I noticed this issue on my DAAT airport as well as Roman Design CYOW, when there are low-altitude clouds/fog, the glass appears very dark/black as it has no fog effect applied to it. Has there been a fix identified for it? The material is MSFS glass with high transparency and dark color.

    MSFS20 Simmershome Riesa EDAU for MSFS (RELEASED)

    Alternating with P3D I am now also working on MSFS. In P3D I'm working on a new version of Tempelhof Retro together with Holger and in MSFS I'm working on Riesa. Here are the first pictures from the MSFS and actually it will be finished soon. The Airfield has all the features I am used to...

    ATC vocalizations saying KBDU instead of Boulder

    I'm hitting my head against the wall here. Any calls to CTAF/UNICOM phonetically say "KBDU" in the beginning instead of simply "Boulder" or "Boulder Traffic." The only place I've seen to adjust frequencies (which I had assumed was the correct place to change this) was in the objects.xml file...

    MSFS20 SimConnect_AddToFacilityDefinition in C#

    Hi, I'm desperately trying to get airport information from MSFS using the relatively new SimConnect_AddToFacilityDefinition function. Sending the request and receiving some kind of data is working fine. However, I'm not able to get more than a single int. I've made a bare-minimum example for...

    Disappearing objects on compile MSFS

    Hi FS Dev community. I've done a forum search for this issue and haven't turned up anything, I'm relatively new to the MSFS side of things but did do a bit in FSX ages ago. I've built a helipad for a nearby city (Dunedin, NZ if anyone is interested) and putting the final touches and doing some...

    MSFS20 To what extent are missions currently working in SDK/DevMode?

    I'm new to missions, and I've probably been making many beginner mistakes as I try to understand this thing. My initial goal is to make a simple scenic approach with contextual voice prompts. The closest example I can find is 'Sitka Approach' in the 40th Anniversary Edition missions. I notice...

    MSFS20 Connection between Microsoft Flight Simulator and external simulation engine.

    I am porting the Tu-154B-2 from X-Plane, for which I write an engine that can simulate "directly rewritten to C" LUA scripts, and executed it as a QT application. And at the moment I have: -Completely rewritten Datarefs; -The "core" of the engine itself, which executes the logic of the systems...

    Attached Light in MSFS

    I am trying to adjust the intensity of attached point lights for use in MSFS. These are way too bright. I tried adjusting in the spotlight area, but no change. I am really not understanding the parameters to use spotlight, hence I tried point light. Maybe I have to use spotlight but feel it...

    MSFS20 Animation from MCX Not Working in MSFS2020

    Hi, I have a problem when using animation on an object for MSFS2020. I created the animation in 3dsmax and exported it to modelconverterx and then exported it to MSFS2020. When in Modelconverterx, the animation is detected and runs smoothly, but when tested in MSFS2020, the animation does not...

    MSFS20 ModelConverterX Textures have become darker

    Hello, This is my first post. I have been making my own scenery objects for about 7 years. My method is to build Buildings such as hangars using TinkerCad, converting the STL file with MCX into .dae files, than painting/texturing in SketchUp, exporting the .KMZ file back to MCX to place them...

    MSFS20 YBAF - Archerfield Airport

    I posted in the working on scenery thread but with developing it I figured it would be best to start a thread. I've dabbled in Blender a bit as well as previous 3D design software going back to Flight Simulator Flight Studio and Lightwave 3D but it's only now I'm starting to get seriously into...

    Why does it look like this

    I am tryiong to understand why the Bin file in MCX looks like this compared to what it looks like in Blender. I am using 3.3.1 and MSFS Toolkit. I do not understand how to set up the new exporter with Collection 1/20 etc etc etc. BobM.

    Why does all this show up

    I am using Blender 3.3 with the new io tool gltf exporter and not MSFS Toolkit but I get this whole black area with the model and if I try to add model in MSFS I get all of it and not just the car? I open the bin file and this is what I get? Little help here. Greets and Thanks, BobM
