• 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.

Hey,
i build a hangar in sketchup with doors and windows in these doors. Inside the hangar are textures at the walls. The textures opacity of the doors and walls are set to 100, the opacity of the windows is 52. I export it to gltf and compile the textures and the model with ModelconverterX. Then i place it in MSFS. But when i look from the side on the hangar, the textures on the (insite) walls are shown before the textures of the hangardoors.
Any idea?

It's really better to have the windows as a separate part. Right now, the windows and walls are set to "Blend," when you want the windows to be Blend and the walls to be Standard. It is a little tricker to do when they use the same texture, but to trick MCX, while in Sketchup you can make a duplicate of the main texture with a slightly different name. Paint the windows with the new name texture. That will get the walls and windows from Sketchup into MCX as separate parts. Then in MCX you can make your Blend/Standard settings, remember the wall will still be set to Blend, because MCX detects transparency! Anyway, set that to Standard, then for your windows, point the texture source to the main texture, the parts will stay seperate and you won't have to deal with doubling up your textures in your Project folder.
