• 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.

Basics

Thats where i actually got it my info from...i searched all day yesterday and never thought of searching the avsim forum since Combat Flight Simulator 2 used the same effect engine...then i finally saw it. Its to bad you can only edit certain wav files (ive noticed that some wav. files are not used with fs2004.....yet the names are hard coded and still available)

Here is a light saber i made for JeffS which uses a controller for the distance. Once you come within the distance you will see the lightsaber and the sound of the light saber for a couple of seconds(thats how long the wav. file is without restarting again. Just put the controller and effect in the effects folder and wav. file in the sounds folder and place the controller only using attachpoint in gmax or by placing in xml. Also place the texture in the effects/texture folder.

IMPORTANT!!!! You can not change the wav. file name as this is reconized by the sim. Like i said, there are only a few names that can be used. Also, if you have done this before and have used this file name, it will be overwritten.
