• 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 All,
Does anyone know how to modify the Parking spot numbers - by default they use Black on yellow but I want Yellow on Black.

That texture appears in the Markings\Colored_Markings as the 3rd Item but there doesn't seem to be anyway to select it or change it. Any thoughts?

The other thing is the parking space numbers appear to only allow Numeric. So how would I get 41A in Gate G for example?

At the moment you can't do what you want with taxy tools

The method everyone Is using is making markings with Square aprons with a Custom material and a Custom texture
This Is the right tutorial for you



You can have Yellow on black using default tools by overwriting the default texture with a modified one, of course this Will change every other items using that texture (taxi sign included)

OK thanks. Does this apply to Taxiway markings like this? If YES, I assume I'm going to have "hundreds" of textures - especially for the parking spaces o_O

Yes, same for taxiway markings. You can help yourself in future projects by making a material library out of anything that can be reused.
 
Thanks for the help. I’ve watched that video and have done painted lines.
do you know anything regarding the alpha numeric gateways?
 
Alpha Numeric SOLVED
For those that are interested.... to achieve the following:

On the Parking spot for G41:
Name = GATE_G
Number = 41
Suffix = NONE

On the Parking spot for G41A:
Name = GATE_G
Number = 41
Suffix = GATE_A

Probably obvious now I think about it.... :laughing:
