• 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.

non-manifold surface in object.......... when trying to do a boolean operation. What does this mean? I know that something is wrong with the object, but what? And how to correct it? Bob
 
What I do on FSDS boolean operations is to split the polygons that are going to be abused into their own part. I'll also do a "check parts" on them to retriangulate "non-planar" polygons, and that *usually* fixed the problems.

THEN I perform the boolean operation, all the while making the appropriate chants and incantations, while taking in the special incense ......

IF the gods have been satisfied, the boolean clunks happily to completion!
