• 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.

    MSFS How to assign aircraft certain .Fx files?

    So there is no way I'd be able to assign a custom .fx file for a default aircraft? How about a payware aircraft that uses the default lighting .Fx's?

    MSFS How to assign aircraft certain .Fx files?

    I have created a few different lighting .fx files for aircraft in the sim. I know that the [LIGHTS] section is now in the aircrafts system.cfg file. I place my newly created .Fx file in MSFS\Official\OneStore\fs-base-effects-legacy I then change the Systems.cfg EffectFile: file to match the...

    MSFS How do I make my Beacon light visible 360 degrees?

    The video clip was too large to upload so let me try to explain my findings... So I was messing in the dev mode and changed the rotation of the light to -90.00 which you can see on the tail points it straight up, THIS WORKED to see the light visible 360 degrees BUT, I lost the reflection of the...

    MSFS How do I make my Beacon light visible 360 degrees?

    Hmm that is very strange, it has all of the emitters and times to flash more than once. Not too sure why its still being funky but I will continue to investigate. Let me know if you have any other possible solutions.

    MSFS How do I make my Beacon light visible 360 degrees?

    Hey Dragon, Thanks for getting back to me. I've tried your possible solution and had the same results. I did how ever notice that in dev mode I can see the 'user lights' and their individual direction and as you can see in the photo the light is only visible 90 degrees in front of the yellow...

    MSFS How do I make my Beacon light visible 360 degrees?

    I have created a custom triple flash beacon light that is on most GA aircraft for the JustFlight Arrow, as you can see in the video that the light is only visible when im looking directly in front of the aircraft. As soon as I pan the camera around behind the plane the light disappears almost as...

    How to get a consistent flash pattern?

    Hey Dragon, in LM VFX Tool as you can see above in the video you can see the effect working, what im trying to figure out is a way to repeat the "triple flash" strobe effect. It fires off once then doesnt do it again unless I go in the VC then switch to spot view.

    How to get a consistent flash pattern?

    Thank you for the reply, I have FX Editor but for some reason the same fx file that I'm working on above does not show up in the FX Editor for some reason, I keep hitting "restart effect" and im not seeing anything.
