• 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.

FS2004 Problem with effect settings, Day, Night, Dusk, Dawn

Designing an airport in ADE for fs2004. Have effects attached to 3D models. Steady red lights ok, strobes ok. Have steady white lights that come on when the sim starts at dusk, night, dawn. Off during the day. Problem is, if I switch from dusk to night, night to dawn, steady white lights go out. Reloading the sim at dusk, night, or dawn, lights come on. Other lights unaffected. Any ideas?
 
Is this an ADE issue or are you reporting an issue with AFLT? If the latter, could you be a little more specific as to what you believe is the issue and send me your Project Folder for the airport as well as the ADE-generated .bgl.

Did you attach the effect twice to each scenery object? ( Param=Day=0,Night=1 for the first and param=dusk=1,dawn=1 for the second)

<SceneryObject
lat="34.8174769431353"
lon="-77.6260082423687"
alt="18.288M"
altitudeIsAgl="TRUE"
pitch="0"
bank="0"
heading="309.237670898438"
imageComplexity="NORMAL">
<Effect
effectName="fx_obslight_2.fx"
effectParams="DAY=0;NIGHT=1"/>
<Effect
effectName="fx_obslight_2.fx"
effectParams="DUSK=1;DAWN=1"/>

Problem solved. Imported a 3D model of the object, added 5 effects, duplicated them, and set the originals to Day/Night, the duplicates to Dusk/Dawn. Works.
