• 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.

Arno, I have just followed your tutorials to add effects...

In MCX, I made a power station look pretty with smoke effects, the export went fine, but in FS I see no effects what so ever, I used the default effects to test it out... then a custom effect... but I dont see any effects in the simulator (FS2004)

Do you know why this is and how to get around it?
 
Hi Darren,

One problem in FS2004 could be excludes. Do you have an exclude for the scenery area where you placed the object? There is a bug that these also exclude the attached effect.
 
Hi Arno,

Well, that did make me think "oh that's why" since I just tested a simple smoke effect which was placed using EZ Scenery in the middle of a runway! and it had exludes all over it!


However, it seems not the case, I re-started my flight sim and the effect was their, so it seems that if anyone is placing their models via EZ scenery, allthough the model is their, the effect will not be their, that requires a sim restart.

Regards
