• 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.

Ground poly and Actigate's rain detection...

Hello everybody...

I am working on a project trying to add a layer over my runway representing a rain layer with water reflections... although I manage to create ground polys through fs2002 SDK tweaking *.asm file, I can not find out where should I add the piece of code, getting it from Actigate_SDK, in the *asm_0 file generated from FS2002 SDK... Specifically, I am talking about the rain detection which I 've already managed to succeed it through FS2004 SDK... finally, is it possible?.. I’ve tried also to compile, simultaneously, both variables through SCASM code but without any luck... any help out there?..:eek::whiteflag

Hi,

For a ground polygon, I think I would put the check for the rain condition in the main ASM file, not in the _0 one. I would place it just before the ADDCAT command that you added for the ground polygons. That why the polygons are only drawn when it is raining.
 
:wizard: that works great!!!.. thank you Arno!!!..
If somebody wants to try that just add this to *.asm file...
Code: 
    ;ADDOBJ      OBJECT_0_SCALE
    ;SHADOW_CALL OBJECT_0_SCALE
    IFMSK lbl_end, usrvr5, 2
    ADDCAT	OBJECT_0_SCALE, 40
    lbl_end label word
 
The ActiGate SDK lists them all, but for weather it is only rain and snow at the moment. There has been some requests to add visibility but I haven't had the time to add it yet.
