• 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.

    P3D v5 Trying to solve Comms issues around OrbX KPSP

    Hi Tim, Thanks for the link. So I gave this a shot, deleted both 126.7 frequencies from KPSP, and it appears to be working. I've only done one flight since, so fingers crossed. I think I'm getting handed off directly to Los Angeles center at the other frequency, not SOCAL Departure, but...

    P3D v5 Trying to solve Comms issues around OrbX KPSP

    Also, totally recognize this may be outside of the scope of an "ADE" question, but I suspect this community knows how to address the issue better than others! TIA!

    P3D v5 Trying to solve Comms issues around OrbX KPSP

    Hi all, When flying around Palm Springs using Orbx KPSP, using VoxATC for ATC and AI, I get dual comms between "Palm Springs Departure" on 126.70, as well as SOCAL center on the same frequency, and they conflict with VoxATC and the AI. According to charts, I don't think there is a "Palm...

    So I rebuilt the stock index and now have successfully loaded NSAS into ADE!

    Issue with P3Dv5 American Samoa - Z08 or NSAS?

    I'm having an ICAO issue I believe in P3Dv5. Was trying to fix sunken plane using Orbx Pago Pago scenery. Orbx uses the ICAO "Z08" for Ofu airport. However in P3Dv5, both NSAS and Z08 exist for the same airport. When trying to open stock airport in ADE 1.79.7439 DEV, only Z08 is found, but...

    Concrete?

    Sorry I missed this - I have been out of town a bit. I'm happy to share my very early work. I have taken GaryGB's suggestion and I'm re-learning SBX to generate the photo tiles. I may also add toad suck! :) - first I'm modeling that really nice terminal building.

    Concrete?

    Thanks for the reply, GaryGB. There is no "stock" airport in this case. It's a new airport built in 2014, so does not exist in P3D yet. Also, since it's new, there really isn't any great imagery that I've found where it's complete. The only sources are pretty low-res (as in the google earth...

    Concrete?

    Does anyone know if there's an easy way to get nice white concrete textures like this in P3Dv4.3? I've tried assigning the obvious options in ADE, but they're all very dark... Here's google earth which is what I'm shooting for: Here's what "concrete" (top right apron and taxiways) and...

    Autogen annotation tool question

    They are hard to select. Press the select button or the (S) key, then draw a small poly around the edge (it doesn't have to cover the entire polygon) and you should see the polygon change color slightly. Then just press "DEL" and it should go away.

    Upgraded PC, more VAS OoM CTDs...

    No offense taken. This isn't so much intended to be a tweaking discussion as a VAS utilization question related to differences in hardware performance. That said, I have had enough useless conversations on AVSIM that I'll find somewhere else. ATB!

    Upgraded PC, more VAS OoM CTDs...

    Hi all, Long time since I've posted here, but I know the experts read posts here, and my discussion is probably quite technical. I recently got back into simming, first because I inherited a slightly older (but capable) PC, then I had the opportunity to move to a pretty much top-line PC in the...

    decompile seasons.bgl?

    That's exactly right, Holger - and thanks for the reply! Do you know of (or have) a high-quality wgs84 geographic map of north america that has a resolution corresponding to a couple of pixels per LOD? I might hand draw a series of monthly seasons overlays just to test the application...

    decompile seasons.bgl?

    Hi all, Long time no post! After a hiatus, I'm back trying to code my snow-cover application. Basic summary, I can use various freely available sources for real-time snow cover to create a seasons.bgl reflecting actual hard-winter conditions. The problem I'm having is creation of a...

    seasons.bgl?? which forum?

    Another option would be to try GIMP, a really nice freeware image processing suite very similar to PS. I find it handles the many different image file formats and compression routines very well - much better than PS in many cases. http://www.gimp.org/

    3DS MAX 9 and FS9/X?

    Is it true that there is currently no way to use 3DS MAX v9 with either game pack?

    AFCADWarehouse.net

    Great stuff David. One thing I'd love - a zip with all the best-rated FS9 and FSX AFCADs for each airport (in other words, no duplicates). I am not a big fan of AI, but there's many simple options out there, but no way to get AFCADs without downloading them individually...
