• 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.

Animation in FS differs from animation in Gmax

Yes, I know that I'm a rookie :rolleyes:
But can someone give an explanation to this phenomen.

I have made a hangar in Gmax and has got all the way into my FS at the correct place, pls look Gmax hangar

My problems with this animation is that the green doors (2 doors made up of 3 blades) has an opening animation and the pink doors (3 of them) are to be slided sideways after the green has opened.
When looking at the animation in FS so folds the green doors up, flaps together again and open up continously.
Sometimes is the pink doors opening but often not

What can the problem be ? The animation is 800 frames long, the green doors is animated between tick 1 and 100 and the opening of the pink doors starts at approx 450 and lasts to 800.

And how to make this animation to open up once and remain static in open position ? - It's darn hard to be able to get the aircraft out without breaking it else :laughing: - I suppose that i have to look into CAT for this or..
And of course the doors are to close when the day starts to end.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Gerth,

To prevent the animation from running endlessly you will indeed need to use CAT. By default all GMax animations loop without an end.

If you still have trouble with the opening order of your animation, it could be that you need to add some keys manual to make sure certain parts remain static till there.
