• 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.

How To Create An Airport For P3D

Hey,
I'm an aspiring developer for scenery (P3D) and I am just curious if you would be able to help me out with a few quick questions.

How do you convert your model for the airport and put it into Prepar3d (like terminals etc)?
How would I go about creating airport ground textures and placing it into the sim?
Also, how do I go about adding 3D night lighting to the airport?

Hopefully you can help me out with this, I'd really appreciate it.

Depends on the software you're using to create your models, if it's Blender for example, you can use this Addon ---> Blender2FSXP3D

Watch this for an introduction

How would I go about creating airport ground textures and placing it into the sim?
Ground Polys - Here's a great Video Series explaining the workflow (I recommend watching all of his videos) --->

Also, how do I go about adding 3D night lighting to the airport?
Tons of videos/tutorials out there, just search for something like "P3D Dynamic Lights"
You can also easily add (spot)lights to your models via ModelConverterX
