• 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.

Hi
Project coming along OK but having an issue with my texture. The textures show up on all the parts in the FSDS Perspective View but when I compile in BGL only the roof and one wall displays the texture. In addition with the one wall showing .. the other side does not show and it is the same part.

I am only using the 1 texture file and it is in the correct folder.

Need some help in figuring this one out please :)
Best
Vern

Hi Vern

In FSDS if you check the box to add a night texture, make sure that you make and add one to the correct texture folder for the game.

Texture for FSDS something like this (Vern_texture_01) and then the night texture (Vern_texture_01_LM )

You only need to apply the first one in FSDS but FSX or FS9 needs both


H_Farfy:D
 
And if you don't you will get an invisible wall or whatever.

If I have it right---- You chose a texture and check the box for night (_LM) but forgot to make an _LM copy.

In FS9 FS looks for that _LM... can't find it and says- oh well, and continues.

IN FSX IT looks for the_LM, can't find it and says- harumph! no _LM? Well I'll be - I ain't gonna show that texture at all..... so there!" Bob
 
Thanks Bob .. that was part of the problem. The other was .. I use Paint Shop Pro 7 to create textures and I suspect there might be an issue with it and Windows 7 but not sure. Anyway Farfy ran my texture thru his paint program and it now works.

Yep - I have PSP 10 and I almost know how to open it! :)

Anyway- learning it takes quite some time. There is even a class and manual in a high school where I subbed a few years ago!

Don't know why FSDS does that. Sometimes I forget and have to go back and dump the first bmp to get FSDS to "see" the new one. gotta love it I guess. Bob
