• 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 am not sure, as I don't have 3DS myself (still waiting for the new GMax gamepack to arrive), but in the past we always had to define the night texture as the ambient map of the material you use. Have you tried that already?
 
I downloadad and tried the demo version of 3DStudio and the FSX SDK.
There seemed to be alot of settings in the FSX module, but I did not have the time to test them out.

I do remember stumbling over some FSX light settings, but I dont remember where I found them :(
 
Thanks Arno and knnygar,

@ Arno, I know that the Diffuse and Ambient is working ok in Gmax. I have done buildings in Gmax, do you remember Haamstede in NL2000 :p

Bud set the LM texture on Ambient in 3dmax isn't working :banghead:

So far I have this:

Hi Ruud,

OK (yes I do still remember about Haamstede).

I am waiting for the new GMax gamepack myself, only then will I be able to explore all the changes in the scenery MDL format. So maybe then we can find the answer to this (most users here can't afford to buy 3DS).
 
Hi Arno,

will this help ? in order to let it work correct whit FSX I need to set the Material/map browser to FlightSimX.

So Standard will be come FlightSimX, that's working bud wan I drop a psp file in the FlightSimX turns back to Standard.

Question how do I work that out ?

That's where I saw it :)
If you choose FlightsimX material you get alot of FSX parameters for light and others.
 
I know, bud there is no material in the FlightSimX.
wan I set it to FlightSimX and drop a psp in, its resetting back to standard ?

How do I fix this than
