• 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.

Problem with strobe effect

Hi guys

I have a problem with a strobe effect that I am using as an anti collision light on a pair of chimneys. I have made an xml file placing the same effect in 16 different positions on the 2 chimneys. When I start looking at the scenery in FS9 or FSX, the lights are perfectly syncronized to begin with, but after a few minutes the blinking becomes more and more out of sync. On this picture you can see that only 2 of the 16 lights that should be in the circles blink at the same time... :mad:

Is there any kind of solution to this problem?

I'm thinking you probably need to use a controller_fx to control (and hence synchronise ) the effects.

This would be instead of placing the fx directly.
 
Hmmm, I have never worked with controller effects before, and it looks like I will have to start all over again finding the exact coordinates for each single light then...

Maybe I should just live with the missing sync.

Regards
Kim
