• 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 Guys
let me first thank you for all help I received for on this site, and fourm.
there is the question I need to ask, can fs2004 use texture bump maps, if so how can they be compiled with the main texture as I know the water textures have bump maps. what I am trying to do is create textured grass ground polygons, and seen as though I have some quality grass textures with bump map channels I was wondering if I could use these?

cheers, hope to hear from you soon

Peace and love
 
Hi,

No, bump maps are a new feature added in FSX (for 3D objects). It is not possible to use them in FS2004. The waves indeed use some special textures, but they are hardcoded in the scenery engine. So these effects can not be achieved elsewhere.
