• 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 made my first PBR test yesterday and unfortunately not very successful. I wanted to keep it easy and made a simple cube:

I downloaded a few pbr textures from textures.com and prepared them how it was shown in this tutorial (red channel metallic, green channel AO and alpha channel smoothness:


I checked all the Exporter-settings and everything relates to the correct SDK for 4.4... also I am choosing to export it as a 4.4-bgl. But in the simulator it lools more or less exactly like in this MCX preview. Something I am missing?
 
Are you using the latest MCX? The first version with PBR support had some bugs in the exporting.
 
Hello David...

Can you share your simple box... maybe with more eyes looking at it... (of course - with the textures too).

Thanks for the offer. But actually it is working now. I was reading that Leonardo suggested to update Client and Content if you want to use their new PBR models. And I only updated the Client, since that usually is sufficient... Seems that this time it was not.
