• 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 guys,

OK not sure this is the best place to post this topic but I have the following problem:

I have a few street-lamps with an attached effect on them.
They display just fine in FSXSP2, but the effects show a big offset in FSX Acceleration version...I haven't tried correcting the offset using MCX since it was fine with SP2, so I m just clueless about this.

Besides, the effect is very close to the ref.point (one streetlamp at 0,0 was exported)

But what sort of changes could the Acc. pack install, that could cause this?
 
Hi,

It's the first time I hear of such a difference between SP2 and the Acceleration pack. I would be surprised if there was such a big difference.

Yes of course you haven't heard such a thing because it doesn't exist...ooops

It appears that the offset was due to WideAspectView in FS. This apparently can 'distort' some effects. Can be fixed by better alignment of the effect texture file..

..sorry!
