• 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.

You want the green walls to be partially transparent?

Perhaps your alpha channel is not surviving the conversion from BMP to DDS? Open the DDS texture in DXTBmp and see if the alpha channel is present in the upper right of the screen.
 
I think the problem I have in the configuration of the texture in 3ds 'm missing something tutorial for beginners looking but can not find
 
Hi,

I assume you created a FlightSimX material in 3DS? If so, down near the bottom of the material dialog box is a button named Set Default Transparent. Have you pressed that?
 
You need more than texture's alpha channel to control transparency in FSX.
You need to set default transparent and set up Z-alpha test and Z-alpha write.
Try searching with "FSX transparency".
