• 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,

Apparently I am stuck on the following:
I have a photo real summer day texture and a summer night texture.
And I also have a winter day texture and a winter night texture.
I am at a loss to get the winter night texture in.
I can define the parameters for summer day, winter day and night but cannot find a way to also define a winter night.
I thought putting in
"seasons: summer or winter
variation: day or night"
it would work but it does not.
Working with months does not either.
What else can I try?
 
AFAIK, there is no way to solve it.
You have to compile two bgls (winter day/night and summer day/night) and switch them manually or using custom tool, like Aerosoft's 'SeasonTool'.
 
Is the night texture not simply additive over the relevant seasonal day texture?

Why do you need two night textures?

It is because the winter night texture should not have any green grass in it, to name just one example.
But in some way, and I am still figuring out why it works, it works!?

It is happy hour and soccer as well, so...

Desaturate the night image under your light retaining the light splash colours as required.

It should be additive (as an example, the areas that are black in the night imagery do not display black in the sim. They are illuminated by ambient moonlight)

Hi H,
Yes that is what I did without realizing that that was exactly what you said. Your comment about the night texture being additive now makes sense to me.
Thanks,
Roby
