• 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.

Overview Updates (6) Reviews (2) History

Update to 0.98.21

Changelog (4.06.2020):
  • Huge change! Implemented a new interface to set up textures, synchronized with the node tree of the material. Read about it in the support thread and in the updated wiki!
  • Fixed issues with the detail and bump map scaling
  • Updated armature animations. It is now possible to assign individual bones with different animation tags in Pose mode.
  • Visibility tags are now displayed in the same way that animation tags are listed. This was done to de-clutter an unreadable drop-down list when too many visibility tags were present.
  • Added leading "/" to the paths of the P3D/FSX SDK. This should help the addon finding your SDK properly.
  • Fresnel map texture filenames are now correctly converted to .dds/.bmp
  • Changed the default reflection value of specular material to "0"

  • Tested and approved for Blender 2.83!
