• 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.

    Fix FS2004 lighting effects synchronisation once and for all

    T Thank you for your reply Arno, I will dig deeper. The reasoning behind using the small polygon is to be able to trigger visibility of the effect with custom xml coding. Regards Ed

    Conversion Problem: MCX A320Neo FSX to FS9

    Thank you for the hint Tom, getting there. I naively thought if I imported a FS9 model into MCX and then exported it back to FS9 it would be the same. Clearly this is not the case for transparency and also I feel the alpha reflection is different. (slightly less) But I am very picky about that...

    FS2004 Stacking 'Messages' (font strings)

    Many many thanks to Tom for the inspiration. Line spacing is 16, only enough space for 4 annunciations. There would be more code to shift the L:Scroll,number by +-16 pending the state of the variables. Regards Ed

    NAV1 / NAV2 / ADF id gauge?

    I'm glad you got the help you needed Jont. Mr Tom Gibson is a very helpful chap....especially for us FSniners. Re gauge folders; I tend to leave gauge folders in the default root gauge folder as I am always poaching code from my other aircraft gauges. Looks to me like you are catching the...
