• 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.

FSXA Train on elevated tract

Hi,
I'm making FSX version of VTBS suvarnabhumi airport.
There is an airport link train that moves from underground to elevated tract and pass the end of runway 19R. So I need this train to be seen while landing at 19R.
The problem is I did animated train in FS9 and it worked fine with two train connected together. The end of the first train will end at the start point of the second one. So they looked like the same train travelling along the tract.

But in FSX, the animation are not coincide. The second one do not start at the end of the first one. Even though I used the same animation.

How could possibly done this with AI? Or anything else? Do you have any ideas about this.

I also attached the whole tract of airport link train and you can see how long it is and it need to be done since it pass at the end of the 19R. The red arrow is where the train goes to underground and the green arrow is the train end (or start for the inbound train). The yellow one is the tract which is 12 meters above the ground.

Thanks for any comments. I really appreciate your help.

Hi,

Can you not make them as one animation in FSX? The 1024 frames limit of FS2004 is no longer there.

Oh really! is that true? There is nothing mention about this in SDK. I'll try that too.
