• 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.

Hi i have made my gmax light pole and assigned the LIGHT_NAV_ name to the object material and so on . Now everything works fine in fs2004 but the light is on in the dawn/day/dusk/night is there anyway i can make it only appear at night. I used mdltweakerII to apply a condition to make it appear at night but then in the morning the whole pole is not there so its applied the condtion to the whole pole + the light . Is there anyway i can make the pole appear dawn/day/dusk/night but the light only at night.
 
Hi,

To add a condition to the lights only you will have to tweak the ASM code of your object manually.

Basically you need to put a IFIN1 command around your lights to add the condition. Something like this:

Code:
IFIN1 nolights, 028Ch, 2, 4
; your light code goes here (BGL_LIGHT commands)
nolights label word

If you do a search on the forum you should find more code examples (if needed).
