• 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.

FSX FSDS 3.5.1. Light problem

I created an animated wind turbine with an obstruction light, for FSX. The animation (with Ambient key) works OK, but I couldn't get the lights to work. I read the forum and found many thread about lights, many are about fs9 which is totaly different from FSX, and the FSX ones gave me some ideas but without a positive solution. Another strange thing is, the red obstruction light worked on another computer with FSX SP1 but doesn't work on my computer with FSX SP2.

Am I missing something?

Attached is the wind turbine model.
Some help about how to get a working obstruction light in FSX SP2 will be greatly appreciated.

FSDS Light problem

Hi All,

I am trying to construct a light with a ground beam and I have followed Farfy's tutorial to do so.

The MDL compiles properly and the daylight texture with the alpha channel is transparent but the nighttime light is not there. I must be doing something wrong but I cannot figure out what. I have tried using Farfy's textures as per his tutorial unaltered to not avail.

I attach a copy of the mdl and KFG (as a text file) - anyone have any ideas?
