• 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.

problems with cutting out rudder

Hi there,

A friend of mine is the constructor of a very hot experiemental that I started to create in FSDS V3

Everything was fine so far, but I have some problems with cutting parts with the boolean operation. I wanted to cut out the rudder from the fuselage and also the canopy.

So if want to make the rudder I get the error: Part is self intersecting Tool is self intersecting

and if I want to cut out the canopy it creates a lot of parts but none of them are visibel.

How to go on now

Thanx

MAIK

I have attached my fsds project (just a part of it). I already split the polygons from the fuselage which I want to cut but still nothing happens. As you can see in the part list I have made a couple of tries but still there are only two parts. So somebody please help

THANX MAIK

Maik,

I downloaded your zip file and it seemed to work just fine for me in FDSD3. I've re-loaded it here after boolean.

thanx for your work, but I can not see the new parts. Have you seen all the tool_bool*.* parts??? I tried the boolean before but even in your reload I can only see the two main parts, the tool and the rudder itself:banghead:

No parts are hided, is that another bug of FSDS ?? I even tried to cut with other shaped tools because on time I couldn't do the boolean because my part seemed to be to difficult to cut. It was a complete wing with a winglet. I had to rotate the winglet to a straight wing and then the boolean worked. But there is nothing to simplify on this part, isn't there?
