• 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.

3D rendering bug?

Hello, I've observed a problem with exporting my model from FSDS to MDL (FS9 SDK). In FSDS 3.5 the model looks fine, but after I export it to FS, there appear some "holes" in it - showed on the picture. For example the light switches are copies of one of them, so all of them are 100% totally identical and some of them are ok and some of them are weired. Surface normas of polygons in FSDS are checked, they are not the problem.

Has anyone an idea what am I doing badly?

And as far as I am talking about yokes - is here any way how to make hideable yokes in FS9? I saw only FSX code on aerodynamika forum...

Thank you,
Pavel

Yep. You made parts with Vertices closer then 4MM in the scene world. The stock FS compiler will 'auto-weld' vertices on small parts causing polygons to crumple or disappear altogether.


What we found is that you can scale up the model via the X files, compile to ASM files, and rescale them back down and compile again to get the MDL file.

Works brilliant. You can then make super small parts, with elaborate shaping, and TONS of them, no more limitations...


THen you can add a Iteration of Smoothing to that cool control yoke and make it extra smooth.


At first, the system looks very sophisticated, but its really not. If I can do it, you can..
 
Okay, I am glad that I dont have to remodel the cockpit... at the first I will finish the whole virtual cockpit and after that I will try to do it as you wrote. Thank you for now, I will ask if I wont suceed :-)
