• 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.

Hey.So I am working on my project and all the time there is a wall and I can cross it my self.
My model is working without any issue on diffuse map.
If I am adding BUMP I cant see model at FSX ,just msg:"Visual model couldnt be displayed".
Could u check my Normal Map and tell me what is wrong with it?
Model for FSX.I use IMGTOOL to convert.

THX for help.
 
I see no problem with your bump map at all, so that's not the problem...
 
OK so here is the story.It was problem with Xtomdl.Creating 0kb file.Thats why FSX cant show Visual model because its not existing in the file.
So why this happend?

Whats that mean?"I have a gret lot of parts , bolts and so on ... and only one texture referring to them..".
Split texture on a half and assign to textures and problem gone.
 
Hi,

That message indicates that your part is too complex. It has too many triangles with the same material (more than 65536). That why making two materials fixed it.
