• 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.

    I hope that you can explain this difference to me, so that I can adjust my fx-file to show the effect in the right timing.

    Thanks in advance,

    Sorry for more than 1 message: max 420 characters ?

    When I start P3Dv3 and go to the location of the lighthouse I can see my lighthouse with the light effect nicely but there is one strange thing. The lighthousecharacter is Fl 2 W 5s, which means 2 white flashes every 5 seconds, as far as I know. In FXEditor the effects shows this cycle correctly, but in P3D the cycle takes about 15 seconds: 2 flashes and after that about 15 seconds dark.

    Therefore I made an effect with FXEditor and attached this effect the my lighthouse with MCX, made a new BGL file and replaced the old one. I placed the new effect-file in the Effects folder of P3Dv3.

    Hi Pierrot,

    I write you this message because I saw that you are busy with lighthouses and so am I. I build my lighthouses (around Ireland) with SketchUp and after that I convert and place the lighthouse with MCX. I also want to add an effect to the lighthouses with a light that has the characteristics of the lighthouse in the real world.
