• 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.

FS2004 ULE - Exporting animated parts ( Gmax)

I am preparing my hierarchy for exporting. I don't want animation in the first of the "LOD" exports but the root of the animation is linked to the fuselage. How would I place my animated parts into a later export but still have it linked to the fuselage, which went out of Gmax in the first export?

Hey Doug,

It might work.

If you export different sections at a time, if the fuselage is part of an LOD and the parts linked to it are in the same LOD, and you export them separately, I 'think' they will still be linked to the fuselage in the sim as they are written as being linked to the fuselage in their Hierarchy.


You'll have to experiment on that to make sure it works. I think it would. But if they are not attached in Hierarchy, then they will not be in the sim either.
