• 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,
Recently i tried creating effect using blender attachments and convert using MCX. What i found is, the effect is far away from the actual position. I have tried all the other options in the Earth Curve Corrections too.

Image 1:
Green cirlcle offset position, Yellow circle = actual position

I am not sure, is there any other ways to correct earth curve correction.

I have attached the effect mdl file with textures that i used in this link (https://goo.gl/EMwPMj). Please guide me.

Thanks,
Manochvarma Raman
 
Hi,

Effects are very tricky, it seems to have their own offsets when far from the reference point. This seems to be a kind of bug in the scenery engine. The earth curve editor has either the option to correct the attachpoints or to correct the geometry.

But it is still best to keep attachpoints relatively close to the reference point of the object, as that minimizes the problem.
