• 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.

    MSFS20 Build error MSFS2020

    Hi guys! Got a question for you all. I've always been building liveries out side of the SDK, because when I try to build one with the SDK I'm always getting the same error.

    MSFS24 MSFS 2024 Liveries

    Hi everyone! I had prepared a series of C172 livery packs for MSFS2020 which I was hoping to launch for MSFS2024 as well, but it seems that Asobo has changed quite a bit to the default models due to the use of dynamic liveries. The liveries look wonderful in MSFS2020 and are working fine...

    MSFS Materials

    Good day all! I've been struggling with MFSF again. I'm trying to create good looking ground polygons for my project. I've got really nice textures made. In Prepar3D they looked fantastic!
