• 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.

Effects on objects

Hello there.

I'd like to have some polys have the day/night and dusk/dawn parameters attached to them. I have the respective scripts for multiple attach effects, however lack the coding knowledge to be able to transfer this to this task.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I see from the attach multiple boxes script:
strAttachNumber = 0
for obj in $x* do
(
obj.name = ("light_day_night" + (strAttachNumber as
string))
strBufferText = ("FSXML = <?xml version=\"1.0\"
encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\" ?> <FSMakeMdlData
version=\"9.0\"><Attachpoint name=\"attachpt_whitelight" +
(strAttachNumber as string) + "\"> <AttachedObject> <Effect
effectName=\"FSSE exeter white steady\" effectParams=\"DAY=0;NIGHT=1\"/>
</AttachedObject> </Attachpoint></FSMakeMdlData>")
setUserPropBuffer obj strBufferText
strAttachNumber += 1
)

The parameters are part of the effects... do I need to create my polygons as effects and just use this?... Id rather not as I wish to apply this to some ground polys.
