• 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.

FS2004 FS9/FSX XML coding

Hi there,
I am using a simple visibility based on the tailhook position condition for FS9, and are working 100% in FS9. But the code slightly differs in FSX, and I want to know if it should work if I include both codes in my Makemdl.XML? My model are working fine in FSX, except for that visibility condition.

The code for FS9:
Code:
<part> 
		<name>Static_optics</name>
       <visible_in_range>
         <parameter>
			<code>
(A:TAILHOOK POSITION,percent) 99 &lt;

			</code>
         </parameter>
        <minvalue>1</minvalue>  
      </visible_in_range>
	</part>

If I am correct, FSX just use <visibility> instead of <visible_in_range>?

Cheers, Jakes
 
FSX exports do not use MakeMDL, so there is no reason the FSX code should be in the MakeMDL XML parts file...
 
Then why does the the visibility condition don't work in FSX? sorry, but I never exported for FSX, I just try to make my model compatible for FSX :confused:
 
Possibly because you haven't defined a key command for the tailhook in FSX?
