• 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.

Problem with FSDS 3.5 Materials

I have worked with several 3d programs such as GMax and 3d Studio Max 7 TO 2009 but am having a lot of problems learning FSDS. I am trying to apply textures to 3d objects I have created in FSDS and I am using .bmp textures as per instructions I think. I can convert them to .dds but am not really sure how they work. My question is, as I have a lot of .bmp textures on my computer for all these other´programs that I use, I try to use some of them but when I hit F4 or open the texture under Parts_Texture, the texture doesn't show on the Part Texture Assignments or the Texture List, so it is not being used or applied. I know I am doing something wrong, but can you tell me what it is?
 
You have to Add a texture to see it on the texture list.
F4 -> Select -> Add -> Browse
