• 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.

Cannot Get Lights to Export

I'm having an issue where no matter what I try, I cannot get light objects to export with a few new models. I was trying to add 2 spot lights to the exterior of a building object I created.

I've added the lights in Blender, exported the object, but they don't show up on the building in the sim; I'm at my wits end and can't figure out what's going on, I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction to look in order to troubleshoot...

For the record, I'm using Blender 3.1 with exporter 1.1.6; when compiling the package it is showing that it builds successfully, with zero errors or warnings showing in the console.
Interestingly I am able to add additional lights (or remove them) to objects that are already in my scenery and already had lights attached, they simply will not show up when adding them to new scenery objects.

I've attached my exporter settings and here's a link to the .gtlf file of one of the objects that isn't working, if that helps.

Thanks!
