• 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.

Airport terminal lights

Hi all,

Can someone point me to a simple (is anything simple creating scenery?) way to add lights to an FSX scenery (airport terminal)? I'm finishing a small terminal building and has a few lights, inside and out...nothing too powerful. I'm hoping that they can illuminate the ground and the area around the light.

Many thanks!

EDIT: Sigh...doesn't seem to work with Instant Object Studio. Strange...most things do. I set all the settings as per the screens. The one possibility is how I'm setting the textures since the names they use for texture files are, somewhat, different. GMAX seems to have a few more texture options that IOS doesn't have (e.g. smoothness) as well. Transparencies and reflections work well...not sure, yet, what the issues would be with using this for light.

If you have Acceleration that will add some pole lights that illuminate the ground. They are in the FSXP_FillerObjects.bgl and start with Lightpost Object. There are 3 diferent ones
