MSFS20 FS2020 Detail Textures

[Nagmaal]

Hi,

I am having a issue when importing a model into FS2020.

I have traced the problem to the Detail Textures. Work Perfectly without them, gives issues with them.

My knowledge on correctly using detail textures is non existent. My research has brought up nothing.
If anybody can point me in the right direction, I would be grateful.

I need the same help! Please someone know how work detailed texture in MSFS?

why do you need to use the detail texture at the first place ?

Perhaps it is an enviroment texture.. ie rainy or snowing no one seems to b3 sure. It has been included in the toolset so how to use it woukd be nice. For instance , msfs uses them inside windows for the view into a building. So my guess is instead of texturing a model where the windows are, you draw an interior, to baking an albedo texture but have a second one for window/glass details.it seems whilevtge main albedo handles the window frames

This is all the info I've seen in the doc's so far: Good luck and let us know if you figure it out.

Detail Color(RGB) Alpha(A)​

When no blend mask is specified, the detail basecolor is interpreted as a linear texture ranging between 0 and 1 of which the channels are blended with the primary basecolor in a linear fashion. In this case, the detail basecolor textures are interpreted such that a value of 0.5 will produce no changes, values below 0.5 will darken the primary basecolor and values above will lighten it. Painting the vertex alpha channel allows to define how the map impacts the base color.

Detail Occlusion(R) Roughness(G) Metallic(B)​

When no blend mask is specified, the detail occlusion-roughness-metallic texture is treated as a linear texture with values ranging between 0 and 1. The values will be added to the primary Occlusion(R), Roughness(G), Metallic(B) in a linear fashion: a value of 0.5 will produce no changes, values below 0.5 will decrease the primary values and values above 0.5 will increase them. Painting the vertex alpha channel allows to define how the map impacts the occlusion-roughness-metallic texture.

Detail Normal​

When no blend mask is specified, the detail normals are added to the primary normal channels. Painting the vertex alpha channel allows to define how the map impacts the normals.

BlendMask​

When this texture is set, the Detail map slots became a secondary sets of texture The BlendMask is a textures maps used to blend between Base and Secondary slots of textures

Yohan, 'I just Tried to use those windows you uploaded (converted from 3dmax) swapped into my model in place of the windows I had already, that have been in game for a month now. Those windows use detail textures and guess what.... epic fail! Not only did the model fail to load, it then caused the builder to remove 3/4 of my models and textures! I had back up if file so no big deal, I pulled the windows out of the project and rebuilt, no issues. Something somewhere does not like those extra textures at all.
