• 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.

Hello!

I was watching a youtube video on how to make Taxiway edge lights:
At 5:10, He said that you would need "A texture that is completely black with an alpha map" I tried making it myself with GIMP, but with no luck. I did have a look through the MCX manual and noticed that I could invert the alpha channel to become black. I tried that as well but still didn't work with the final steps that the person had on youtube.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, is "Nightmap texture" now called "Emissive texutre"?

Correct about the map name, it's emissive texture now, but the rest remains the same.

Can't help you with how to make the texture though.
