• 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.

Effect on specified time in MCX

Hi,

I am struggling at the moment at a very frustrating point. I got some nice apron lights and I only have to give them controllers so that it only is OFF at DAY and ON at DAWN/DUSK/NIGHT. I had a .MDL file and put it into MCX. I added all effectpoints via MCX and I read something about xml codes etc about controllers, but there is also an effect parameters tab where the:

Preset DAY/NIGHT
Preset DUSK/DAWN

Are located. When I add them both the lights aren't working and when I only do DAY/NIGHT (0/1) it is off during the DUSK/DAWN. How can I fix this problem so that the lights are burning at Dusk/Night/Dawn via MCX?

Thanks for the help!!

Regards, Tim
 
have you placed the effecto twice, I mean you need to attach two effects, one for day night and the other for down dusk (or something so)
 
Thank you!! It worked. I thought that MCX already got an option to split the DAY/NIGHT preset and the DAWN/DUSK.
Thanks anyway!

Tim
