• 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.

GMax Missing Utilities

If i load the default gmax all the utilities are there. But when i load FSX GMAX these are now missing. How do i fix this? Or what file is causing this?

I have checked my GMAX with the FSX SDK installed, and I have all of the utilities listed. So it's not the SDK itself.

I would start by checking the ini files found in the FSX SDK's folder in the GMAX gampacks folder. Mine is called FSX_GmaxGamePack.

In the gmax.ini file there is an entry:

[Utility Sets]
ModifierSetName0=
ModSetEntry0=1010183319 1606892208 307388827 306186243 1924876789 -1482568881 1470835552 1493529333 1855492501 1576747447 1698601430 1759998750 -1479269395 1692309753 -1923732607 0 1163371204 1600820 761473067 1521299528 929757223 190734547 81152088 382825757

Is yours the same? If not, you might want to try this? Back up first.
 
Both the default gmax.ini and the one from gamepacks both have

[Utility Sets]
ModifierSetName0=1

Not like yours. And since the default gmax has all the utilities it must be a file that is messed up. i also tried your code just in case and did not help.
 
SOLVED: I had a backup plugin.ini and this fixed it. i was looking at the old one and i am not sure how the link to the default plugins folder got altered. That was strange.
