• 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.

Special effects parameters

Hello
I use Prepar 3d v4
Does anyone know where to find out the parameter list for the special effects?
So far the only parameters I know of are:
YEAR, MOY, DOM, HOD, MOH
Are there more parameters than the above?
For example in ADE, I choose the special effect FW_show1.fx (or any other effect) and I want to add some parameter to it to get it to start when I shoot it with the F-16's barrel.
Is this possible?
Thanks
 
ADE will not help you modify a model. ADE is an airport design editor. You can search for "prepar3d v4 sdk" and read the special effects section. Bear in mind that there is a lot of preparation to get an effect to render on demand. You will have to place the origin of that effect exactly on the model where you intend it to be visible, you will have to define a unique user action, or key press, to activate the effect and you will have to compile all of this into the model. It is an order of magnitude, or two, more complex, than creating an aircraft livery.
