• 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 all,

I'm going to install an update of the forum software now. So this means the site can be offline for a short while. Sorry to do it a bit unplanned, but I now have the time to do it, so I better just get started :)
 
Hi all,

The software update has been applied to the forum, resource library and the tapatalk plugin. Everything should be working again, but if you see something that is broken, please let us know.
 
An option to tell Tapatalk to get lost permanently would be good, but I think the forum software is pretty good anyway.
 
I think there's an option to not get the tapatalk notification anymore, isn't there? Of course that only applies to mobile devices.
 
This forum software is top shelf, the best I have ever seen for both PC and mobile devices. I have only run across one other non-related forum using it.
 
Yes, I'm quite pleased we moved to the XenForo forum a while back. It's really easy to use forum software (also for us admins running it).
 
I like the new feature indicating if someone is online on the top left corner of the avatar :)
 
I haven't noticed that many new features yet, except for the online indicator. So it's probably mainly fixes or I have missed some things :)
 
I noticed that when I select new posts I have tabs for new profile posts and new resource. The new profile post seems to be showing everyone's new PMs? Or is this something different?
 
No, a profile message is public on your profile. That's not the same as a private message.
 
Ok Arno just making sure it wasn't an error, wouldn't want anybody knowing my evil intentions. :eek::p
 
Still in the way that it also happened before the update?
 
Yup. Browse a subforum, then go back to the main page and you'll be logged out.
 
Very odd Bjoern, is that using the main page link or the back button? Creaky old IE 10 here and I've not had that problem. :confused:
 
Beats me. I have Firefox too, whatever the current update is, and it behaves.
 
Logged in while browsing the MCX forum, clicked "Home" and was not kicked out. I guess it's dependant on the relative positions of the Moon to Venus and Bill O.'s eyebrows. :confused:
