• 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.

so hello everybody, I and some other guys working on a freeware project for LLER airport in Israel south region
Preview3.jpg


I almost finished working on the buildings so I moved to the night lights
we used dynamic lights for the apron so no problem there. the problem is with the streetlights
I made a model with a base texture that I put there a spootlight (as shown in the image below)

after converting with MCX it look like ok but here the problem starts
some of the lights simply disappeared , they only appears when I'm turning off the No Z Write, So i get the flikering problem
I was fighting it and going into google to find solution but with no luck, so probably I spent 3 hours with no luck looking for a solution, that why I come here.
I noticed that the only place that the lights work are the tiles on the Ground poly that dosen't have alpha, I used PNG texture on the border of the Ground poly. so I suspect that there is a problem with blending lights on a transparent surface, if there is any option that can solve it
