• 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.

Hi,
I always generate scenery MDL when I work with FSDS. No BGL nor aircraft MDL.

Is there a way, shortcut or other tric to compile directly, without having to click File > Create FS Object File > Scenery Object File > Model File...? I know, I know, I'm lazy ...

Thanks.
 
If you have a keyboard with programmable keys you can make some nice lazy shortcuts to do most things with FSDS.

I've got a Logitech G110 keyboard which has 12 G keys which can be programmed to do a serious of keystrokes. So, you could program a key to start with ALT (to display the menu) and then a serious of up, down, left, right key presses to move to the necessary menu item.

For example, I have a key set to fix a polygons texture using the custom texture command. This is programmed into the key with ALT, O, T, DOWN, ENTER. So it takes only one key press for me to do this otherwise laborious task.
