• 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.

Platforms for FSX?

Finally got around to placing some FS 2004 .mdl/.xml based aircraft Carriers in FSX and everything else seems to work, but the GMAX generated platform. (That old sinking feeling is back.)

I recall a thread that said that this was a problem in the beta, but thought it would be fixed in the release (wishful thinking?). Has anyone figured a work around for this?

...Never mind...I guess we're all waiting for the GMAX gamepack so we can go back and redo all our platforms. Although a quick tool that would turn an FS9 platform into an FSX platform would be nice.

Hi,

Finally got around to placing some FS 2004 .mdl/.xml based aircraft Carriers in FSX

May I ask... are the textures of these aircraft carriers normal ? I used the API Nimitz (from fs-shipyards) and some textures are dark.

The carrier has a dark deck, but that is all. I went with Javier Fernandez' original textures and hull that were for FSDS2, imported it into FSDS3, cleaned it up and put some animation in (radar)...and bgl lighting..and operating blast shields...more flags, rules of the road lighting and day shapes...etc. Oh...and the platform that doesn't work now. If you'd like a set of textures, just private message me with your email address.
