• 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.

I got something new and have no idea how I made that to show up. After loading the model it´s not there but as soon as I move around it comes up, with every model I load. Looks like a missing effect or texture but is not shown in the log.
Checked all buttons, can´t get rid off. Please help. Dan

Looks like an effect to me as well, but rendering of effects is off. So then it must be a normal part. Did you check in the material editor if there is a black material?
 
He says it's with every model he loads so it's unlikely to be a model issue, but instead an MCX display issue?
 
Yes, no black color. I also tried to identify it with hierarchy editor. Sometimes it´s a discrete part, but sometimes combined. Tried to delete but I fear it destroys the model. It is not just one part, it is a lot. I guess something with animations.

I have the latest development update. The version before it was there too.

Got it. It was "Screen Recorder" from ZD Soft. It was active in the background after I have taken a short video yesterday to show a friend how a scenery looks and it stayed in the background.
I don´t understand this. It captures the active window and makes this square in the middle. Looking at the recorded video, the square is not seen. I will check for an update on this recorder.
Thanks for your help guys

It might be the recorder interfered with the OpenGL of MCX. But glad to read you fixed it.

I haven´t seen it before and have this software about 10 years, using it only a few times a year. Updating didn´t change a thing and I also don´t see any settings to avoid that. I have the impression, a smaller window like MCX only has this. The Prepar3D window never has it, which I always use full size. At least, it has nothing to do with MCX, what I could not think at all, since never ever such things happen with MCX.
