• 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.

FSX Problem with creating textures

Hello Arno. I do not know what happened. I'm using the MCX few years, from the beginning when it was created. The first time I got such an event. MCX not create texture. Just as the picture below.

All parameters are OK. The problem I have now on my two computers. The program is updated each time a new update. Earlier everything worked.
More details: the option Material Editor / Drawcals I use Predict drawwcalls and next Minimize drawcalls. After this does not create textures.

I hope to see you again next year, on 12 GFSC in Paderborn.
Best regards and please help.

Important information:
This error is in the current version 1.4.0.0 r2383 DEV 2013-06-11.
1 or 2 updates ago, everything was OK.
MCX version 1.3.0.0 does not have this error.

Hi,

I am not aware I changed anything recently to loading the textures. Are you sure the requested bmp file is in the right folder? Often collada files use relative paths for the textures.
 
No matter the type of graphic file, or even type of object (mdl, bgl, collada). The result is always the same.
 
Hi,

I must have missed the part about drawcall minimizing. When you minimize the drawcalls the textures are not saved automatically, you need to do that from the textures tab.

But after minimizing them you should see the texture in the preview.

If that still fails, do you have a sample object for me to check?
 
Hi,

I was just checking another bug report I got earlier this week by email and there was indeed a bug in the code that refreshes the preview. This caused the drawcall minimizer to not work correctly. In the next development release it will be fixed.
 
Arno, this happens with any type of object (as I wrote above). Here are a few snapshots:
