• 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.

Triggering FSX effect with Simconnect

Hi All,

Does anybody know if it's possible to trigger an FSX effect with Simconnect ?

Let's imagine that I want to trigger an engine fire effect if my plane fly one minute long above 25000ft. I know how to get how long my plane fly above 25000ft but I didn't find the API triggering effects :confused:

Advises are welcome.

Thanks in advance ;)
 
I must be possible... I used it in FollowMe to annoy people that are using a pirated version. Have to look it up... hang on...

There is a variable: "ENG ON FIRE:index" ("ENG ON FIRE:1", "ENG ON FIRE:2", ...)

Set it to "true"

Now, as for custom effects... there is a whole thread about that here somewhere.

Daniel
