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.

Hi Michael,
Not sure what you exectly mean with backlit sign, but for the taxisigns I made for airports I usually use the same texture as day and night texture. Then it looks fully lighted at night.
If you are using SketchUp, this would be done in ModelConverterX indeed.

Hi,
Using a night texture you should indeed be able to make it appear like that.
Like I said if you want it lit all at the same intensity, you can use the same texture for day and night. If you want more variation in the lighting, you need to make a special night texture with the effect you want.
