• 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.

    Hi. It looks like the «sail» material slot in the current Blender plugin (v5.4.3) does not support the alpha channel. Respective parameters disappear when choosing that material. As expected, to manually inject the alpha node in the graph does not help. Anyone found a workaround how I may pinch...

    KC-390 - Doubt about ScenegraphNodes.

    I doubt it, but is there a problem with having so many ScenegraphNodes? When I look at other aircraft, they don't have this excess of nodes in the same animation. My concern is whether it interferes with the optimization of the aircraft or even its effect/animation.

    Hey guys! I'm getting into aircraft design for the sim. At first, everything was going smoothly. Now, when I export the different LODs (exterior and interior) in the Simulator, the "interior" is shifted down the z-axis compared to what I'm seeing in Blender. Any thoughts on this, anything I...

    X-Plane - Blender: Ropes in 3D objects?

    Hi, how do I get ropes in 3D objects in Blender? To make 3D objects more realistic, it would be helpful to display simple "ropes". One possibility would be very thin real 3D constructs - i.e. an elongated triangle. But that robs space in the texture and computing power. Lamira herself shows...
