• 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.

    FSX default weather

    Any update to this thread? I recently downloaded and installed the 30 day full version. It works and connects to FSX, but, it does not load any weather, states the file is not available at the path it tries. However, there is no option to try a different pat, or what/where it should be looking...

    FSX Thunder group!

    That's what I thought, but was hoping someone knew exactly if ever released. Thanks.

    FSX Thunder group!

    Any update from either developer on this aircraft? It would make a great modern addition to anyone's hangar.

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    Thank Ed. I'll redo everything and see if that works.

    Please send. I have the NATOPS, are these different? Thanks.

    My FSX -Acc -unusable

    I run FSX on a Win 11 machine. Can't answer for FS9.

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    Thanks Ed. Slowly moving forward. I actually got the object into FSX, but the texture is all black. Do I need to set up my library folder with folders for the model (bgl) and texture (bmp)? I used LibraryCreatorXML. It only created the bgl (as far as I can see and understand at this point).

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    Thanks Ed. That I understand and currently do with several libraries. Also, I'm using FSX. As I'm slugging though this learning process, I have a) made an object, b) saved as a dae, c) exported as mdl, now trying to create the bgl. The bgl is my current road block to this process. Once I figure...

    Just found Library Creator XML, so installing and will see where it takes me.

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    I change PBR to spectral and it exported the mdl. How do I change to a bgl to use with ADE? Sorry for this step by step, but once I get this one completed, I'll have the steps for other builds. Thanks,

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    This is the page I had previously read. And I can not see anything I've done different than what they present. I'll review each step I took again, and see if I missed anything.

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    After several attempts it accepted the ModelDef location. Now I get an error stating the the material is not FSX or PBR, even though I have it set for PBR and it shows "BSDF Principled." Well, at least I'm one step closer.

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    I now have 3.6 and P3D/FSX Toolsets installed. As it would not automatically locate the ModelDef file, i did so manually. When I attempt to export the mdl, I get the same error, ModelDef file not found.

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    Apparently not... As I am new to Blender and the Toolsets, I'm still learning where to find these types of information (your link is to a three year old posting). That link takes you to the Blender2P3D/FSX page that I had read, and it states as a Requirement "version: v3.x or later.", and since...

    P3D v1 Exporting Scenery Object from Blender 4.2

    I created a very simple 4 sided scenery object. I have the P3D/FSX addon installed. I have added a friendly name and generated a GUID. When I attempt to export as a DirectX mdl I get this error message : ------------------------------------------------------------------ modeldef.xml has not been...

    FSX Modifying Virtavia CH-46

    Most likely right. The hardest thing for me in Blender (4.2) is placing a texture on a face. I can make the tanks a solid color, but not properly detailed using a texture. Once I get the model mod to FSX, then I'll try going to MSFS. Will be happy to discuss DM later for help. Thanks.

    Sikorsky H-19 Chickasaw, Westland Whirlwind and Westland Wessex for MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024

    My guess is that an FSX port-over to 2024 will occur for the H-19 and many of the vintage helicopters before a complete new model is built. I've contemplated doing so for the CH-46. But, after reading threads blasting the quality of these port-overs, rather than being happy the aircraft exists...

    FSX Modifying Virtavia CH-46

    With permission, I have begun the first of several modifications to Virtavia's FSX CH-46. I eventually want to offer several versions to reflect the minor changes between different models of he BV-107 (UH/CH-46 A/C/D/E/F, etc.) and the several KV-107 variants. I initially removed many later...

    P3D v5 Double Taxi signs?!?!

    This is an FSX and early P3D issue when using ADE. When you delete a taxi sign, for a default airport, it reappears due to an additional underlying "placeholder" (since I'm not sure what it's called) that calls for basically an auto generated taxi sign. It is the unseen object that generated the...

    FSX New Runway and Taxiways do not show in FSX.

    Using ADE 1.79 I'm creating a mod to LYBE. I added the missing closed runway mid-field and it does not show in FSX after save/compile. I've tried creating this using a runway, taxiway and ramp (apron). No matter which method I use, it does not appear in FSX, although seen in ADE. Any thought as...
