• 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.

Multiple Texture Sheets

Hey everyone,

I am having an issue right now with using multiple texture sheets. Basically what I am trying to do is set up my planes like the stock fsx planes are, with the _1 texture sheet having the main livery and the _2 texture sheet having all of the things that don't ever need to be repainted, such as wings and wheels.

My problem is that the _1 texture sheet shows up on all of the parts that _2 sheet should. The _1 sheet shows up correctly, and the _2 sheet doesn't show up at all. I am not sure what causes this or how to fix it.

The textures look fine in gMax, if that is of any use.

Also, I have my textures named B717_1_T.dds and B717_200_2_T.dds

Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
There is a bug in the FSX gamepack, where FSX materials are given the same name. Just check for duplicate material names.
 
Is that only an issue with fsx materials? If so, it would probably help to know that I am applying my texture as standard materials.

If it is an issue with any type of material, where exactly do I check for duplicate material names?
 
In the Material Navigator, the three colored balls at the top right of GMAX.
 
GMAX (etc.) does not check for duplicate material names, so you have to. :)
