• 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.

MDLTweak Variables

hi Arno...just downloaded the MDLTweaker and I think Im going to like it, but I need to ask about the Variable values and the minimum and maximum for the conditions. If I wanted an object to appear at only one time of day, how do I get the correct entries for these figures. I see in the pdf file that the miniimum and maximum figues are hexidecimal? Is there a list of examples you can give me if I wanted the object to appear only from 12:00 noon to 12:30pm?

Thanks in advance :teacher:
 
May be wrong here... as I have only used days in MDLTweaker.

12:00 (1200) would be 4B0 in Hex (The minimum value)
12:30 (1230) would be 4CE in Hex (the maximum value)

Now... that may be wrong, but to get the figures, I just used Calc and did the conversion.

Cheers,
 
Sorry, doesn't work that way. There is only a variable for hour of the day and for minute of the hour. So you need to do two checks to get such times correct.

At this moment I can not remember if the values for these should be in hexadecimal or not. MDLTweaker just writes what you enter, so for the NAV2 for example you have to use 1200h and in MDLTweaker you just enter 1200. I am not sure if these variables do the same. I would have to check that.
 
"Sorry, doesn't work that way."

'cause if it did, that would be simple :confused: :banghead:
