• 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.

P3D v4 texturing 3ds max (taxi line)

Hello, many of you guys might of seen me struggling with 3ds max but i somehow understand some stuff and I feel like I am progressing but I am having one problem regarding texturing taxi line.

I made a short video demonstrating how I try to make my taxi lines so you guys know exactly what I am doing wrong?

The problem i am having is that it looks very stretched and not clear.. I have seen so many addon scenery taxi lines 4096x4096 (the one i applied was 4096x4096 too)

Disregard the white background (i didnt make an alpha channel for it to be transparent as im trying to resolve this first!)

to conclude, I most properly do the steps wrong to apply a taxi line texture to my loft which is .5m wide.
Thank you

Have you tested it in Simulator yet ? See if its blurred there . IF the texture doesnt look blurred in simulator that probably means your display resolution is low in 3dsmax you can fix that by clicking the ( + ) [ON TOP LEFT CORNER OF YOUR VIEWPORT] > Configure viewports and then you will see the first tab with resolution see if the resolution for viewport is low there you can change it to 4096 and it might fix your error
