• 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.

MSFS20 Lights don't work in MSFS

Hi all, I need some help please, with the building lights

I create a building with some lights, with Blender (Add light : Cone, point ... )
But these lights don't seem to work in MSFS.

I use Blender 3.1 with the official plugin MSFS2Blender from Asobo.
Before, using Blender 2.9 with the plugin Blender2MSFS Toolkit 0.40.00 I had no problems.

Is there something I'm forgetting ? Something special with the new plugin ? I try with the light attached or not with the same problem

NB : If I try to add Light via MCX, it work perfectly.

I join a test file :)

Thank you Dick
I just tried it, but no changes. The lights don't appear in MSFS
I'll check it, and try it again ....
 
Yes. I see
Punctual lights need "KHR Lights Punctual" It seem . I haven't. Maybe it's why I have this problem
 
Ok Dick. I see the light with the file you send me.
what changes did you make on my file ?

More, with my file, activating Punctual lights, I've a compilation error : :(

The newest official Asobo Blender exporter (version 1.3.3) is made for Blender 3.6. I suggest that you install and try Blender 3.6 and newest version of the exporter, included in the newest SDK (v 0.24.3)! Many benefits from that... You need to have the "Punctual lights" ticked in the settings for the exporter (it was not in your file).
 
Yes, but I tried with "punctual Lights" ticked. Light attached at an object. Same result, the light appear in MCX. But I've the error above during the compilation with fspackagetool. I don't see what is this "Spot orientation"
I'll try to install Blender 3.6 with the plugin Asobo 1.3.3 :)
 
Yessss.
With Blender 3.6 and plugin Asobo 1.3.3, there is no more error and the lights work, finaly !!!

Thank you so much for your advises.
