• 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 Arno
I down loaded the latest developmental release on 10/14/22. The material editor is failing to load my night texture.
I tested the model in MCX V1.5.0 and the editor finds the night texture just fine.
In v1.5.0 the editor defaults to Add Night Texture, but the latest release defaults to Set default transparent, but when I select Night Texture from the list and click apply
the editor fail to load the night texture. I can browse and select the night texture. Not sure if you meant to make this change.

Hi,

I think the problem is your diffuse texture has a relative path, while the emissive texture does not.

Did you use the "night texture" material template to add this night texture? I made some changes there, so that might have given a bug.
 
Hi,

I can confirm there was indeed a bug in the material templates. With the changes I made a few days ago the relative folder information was lost. I have made a fix now and the next development release will work correctly again.
