• 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 Runway lighting issue

Hello,

I'm trying to import 3D runway lights from a SKP file. I created it, imported the PNG texture, convert it with MCX to DAE and then MDL.
I made several types of lights : all are columns with 1 light ever x meters.
At the beginning of the runway, there is always green lights, this is a small column as it covers the runway's width.
For the others ones (white lights and red ones), each column measures the total length of the runway (for the centerline for example or edge lines).

in FSX, I placed all of them, everything seems to be ok.
here is the result,
2020-10-8_0-26-46-264.jpg



Then I restarted FSX, and I have the following issue : red lights and white lights are OFF, then ON, then OFF, then ON.... I don't understand why. They are not really flickering, it's pretty slow.
It happens whenever I'm on ground, in flight, close to the runway, far....etc.

I place all lights by creating a library and Instant scenery.
No effect used here, just DDS textures with nightmap textures.

Maybe a LOD issue ? But why green lights appear correctly ? :eek:

Thank you for your help!

Best regards
Enzo
