• 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.

In MSFS2024 we now should be using Package Order Hints. It tells the compiler what we are making so it can guess the package order the Sim should use. These are the allowed hints:

Code:
BESPOKE_AIRPORT_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override changes in BESPOKE_AIRPORT packages.  
CUSTOM_AIRPORT    These are 3rd party packages that override one or more generic airports or that add in new ones to the simulation.  
CUSTOM_AIRPORT_LIFE    These are 3rd party packages that change airport life (ie: apron services or navigation services).  
CUSTOM_AIRPORT_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override changes in CUSTOM_AIRPORT packages.  
CUSTOM_LOCAL_SCENERY    These are 3rd party packages that contain scenery from a specific region.  
CUSTOM_MISC    These are 3rd party packages that do not match any other hint category available.  
CUSTOM_MODELLIB    These are 3rd party packages that contain models.  
CUSTOM_MODELLIB_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override models from CUSTOM_MODELLIB packages.  
CUSTOM_NAVDATA    These are 3rd party packages that replace all the navigation data for the world.  
CUSTOM_NAVDATA_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override navigation data from CUSTOM_NAVDATA packages.

GENERIC_AIRPORT    These are core simulation packages that contain all the airports of the world.  
GENERIC_AIRPORT_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override one or more airports from GENERIC_AIRPORT packages.  
GENERIC_MODELLIB_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override some models of the GENERIC_MODELLIB packages.  
GENERIC_NAVDATA_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override the navigation data from GENERIC_NAVDATA package.  
GENERIC_SCENERY_PATCH    These are 3rd party packages that override scenery from GENERIC_SCENERY packages.
