• 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.

Runway end strobes

I customized an existing effect to simulate the runway end strobe. It is working fine. The size and flash rate are just what I want. I created a model in Sketchup that has two of these strobe units 300 feet apart and then used MCX to attach an effect to each of the strobe boxes. It works great in P3D. It looks realistic and all BUT they get out of sync. When I start P3D they are flashing together but within a few minutes they are out of sync. Anyway to sync two effects together? Thanks in advance for the help.
 
Another question also if you don't mind. I created a pretty realistic looking approach "rabbit" with 5 strobes. I modified the default fx_flashbulb effect and call it fx_flashbulb2. I then modified another controller effect to call this flashbulb effect. When I look at it in FXEditor it looks fine. I placed the effect using ADE and I don't see it in P3D. I then created a model and attached the effect to it using MCX. I see the model in P3D but no effect. I am attaching the two files in case anyone wants to look at them. Thanks..
