• 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 versions and P3DFSX toolset versions

FWIW

There are different reasons why one has to use an older version of Blender.

I'm not sure that in some cases one is not using the older version of Blender because they saw somewhere that the toolset was created for that particular version, e.g., 2.8x of Blender.

The Blender version number that is in the toolset is, according to the bl_info paragraph in the Blender manual "the minimum Blender version required to run the script".

That particular toolset will work on newer versions of Blender, until Blender makes some change to the Python API that breaks it.

For example, when Blender 3.x was released, either of the toolsets 0.98.21 or 0.98.34 would no longer work with it. However, those toolsets have the minimum Blender version of 2.83.0 and work with 2.93.11.
