• 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.

Could someone here (Wiki contributor and/or moderator) give me the guidelines on how to create a Wiki article? I saw there was a few months ago a discussion on the magdec.bgl structure and I would like to provide the necessary information (probably in the 'File formats' section). Thanks guys

Search for an article, e.g. "Magdec". There will be no results, but the search page will provide a link with which you can create a page titled "Magdec".
 
On the Wiki front page is a link to some help for this: not all of this help is actually there – blind links! :rolleyes: Best help I can suggest is to open an existing Wiki page in Edit mode to see how things are done; that's what I did.
 
Hi Folks

Hervé
There's a couple of very basic help pages for the wiki -
- Help:Contents
- Creating a new Wiki article

Key thing is to look at the appropriate Category index,
and choose your article name to match exisitng syntax.

Don't worry about the infoboxes, or fs-categories,
I'll add them to your page.

Alternatively -
You can reply here
including your chosen article title,
and it's intended category.

I'll then create the page,
and you can populate it with your content.

Thanks guys..appreciate your help. That's now clear. I will proceed accordingly but first spend a couple of days learning the proper syntax before taking the plunge..
Category will be "File formats" and title "Magdec BGL file"
