• 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.

Blender 2.70 VC panel lightmap problem(Solved)

Hi everyone!

I am using blender 2.70 and I am having problems getting my lightmaps to work on my VC panel.
Here is what I have done to try to get my lightmap to work.

On my material that is applied to my VC panel, I have added a second texture. I UV mapped it to my panel; I then checked the Emit check box in the Influence section of the texture. It is the only the checked box in the Influence section. In the material and in the FSX properties, I have tried setting the Emissive Properties to AdditiveNightOnly, and MultiplyBlend. Nether made a difference. I have also tried setting the material Emit to 1.0 in the Shading section to see if it makes a difference; it did not make a difference.

What am I doing wrong.

Thank You, Krispy1001
 
Do you have instrument lights in your airplane? Check the aircraft.cfg, might be a solution..
 
Thank you, for your Help Dutcheeseblend!

I found that my problem was I forgot to put my DXT1 file into the FSX texture folder for my test plane. Everything is working good now.

Thank you very much for your help, Krispy1001
