• 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, and what ever might sit behind those screens..

Im working on a scenery, and everything has been going splendid the whole day, untill i came across one of my buildings, that has 2 different textures on it.

Only the one part is showed in FS, but, the other is applied, and have the same filename indexeed colors and all that stuff! ( I have dobblechecked!)

Hope you have any solutions, as i dont want to retexture the whole thing! :banghead:

Else its just running on tracks! - Using charts from the Civil Aircraft Administration, as reference, achiving a 100% correct airport :D
 
multimaterials can be flakey. I've gotten frustrated with the concept, seems to be more work than its worth. If you select the polygons for the second material and detach them, they can be textured as a seperate part.

Or you can make multimaterials work...in which case you are patient.

I had a model refuse to display one of the two materials in GMAX!...but displayed perfectly in fs...imagine.

I have same problem...in Gmax only a material displayed, in Fs sometimes yes, sometimes no :rotfl: :rotfl:

Well what I do is select the object and then convert it to editable poly, select the proper polygon and then re-select a new material in the material editor, mapping it as you would a new object.

Then collapse all and go ont o the next polygon, etc.

Hope this helps. :duck:
 
Problem is that its the way i have made it.. Dont figure why it does, but well, its Gmax :banghead:
 
Found the problem! It was the Material, where the texture wasn't assigned to the diffuse channel, but the ambient colour.

Now it looks a whole lot better '
