• 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.

FS2004 "CAT" and "MDL tweaker" on the same MDL ?

Hi !
I've simplified my first idea so i have now only a simple question: is possibile to apply to the same MDL some animation conditions with CAT and some other conditions with MDL tweaker ? I have a truck as MDL and i need to set a NAV2 condition for let my truck to appearing/disappearing and a "beacon on/off"to start the animation of the truck (open a door).
But if i use MDL tweaker for setting the beacon condition on the MDL i don't get the asm file required from CAT for the animation condition...
Moreover i don't know wich value to assign to the variable becon (0282h) for the condition "beacon off"
Someone would have to give me some ideas on how i can solve this problem?

Many thanks in advance to those who will help me.

Hi,

I don't think this works. But if it works, it would be by using CAT first and then MDLTweaker. But I expect that you need to manually tweak your ASM files to get the combined effect you want.

About the 282 variable, it's a timer that is running from 0 to 32767 in a certain amount of time. So it doesn't have an on or off value.
 
Thank you Arno. I'm doing some test but untill yet without any good result. Maybe i should find another way to manage the problem... Anyway thank you for your help.
