• 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 No Dust effect on custom airtrips

Hello with everyone

The question I have refers to some effects that occur on dirt, gravel or even snow runways. Well, I tell you that I have created hundreds of custom sceneries recreating the airstrips of the Amazon of Ecuador, but I have recently realized that in airstrips that are modified from MSFS2020 default scenery, I can see the effect of the dust rising from the ground with the wind of the propeller, but in the ones I have created there is no such effect although the characteristics of the runway are made of the same material, whether dirt or gravel.

I would be very grateful if you could give me an explanation of how or why this effect is not displayed throughout airstrip?

Greetings!

Are you using a ground type material for your runway?
The effect are generated based on the ground surface type

Thanks for answering.

Yes I tried using asobo_ground textures as well as dirt textures but no effect is displayed. Do you have any particular ground texture in mind?
 
look for Ground_sand, it has a DIRT surface

most of the terrain / soil materials have a CEMENT type surface,
in the material editor you can open the material inspector and know what are you dealing with
or simply create one :D
