• 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.

Hey folks

How can one get a detail map of taxiway signs of an airport depicting the exact locations and inscriptions on them ?

Thanks !
 
Not sure you will be able to get that unless you can deal with the airport management and get their schematic drawing. However, you should be able to get the airport map with the taxi-ways etc annotated, then I am afraid it is down to you to work out what signs go where. That said, do you really need to replicate every sign on your airfield/airport? I believe the SDK has an option to generate signage - assuming you have created taxi-paths.
 
I am actually creating customized models of taxiway signs as they are a bit of a "special" shape in geometry and there are a number of run-up areas with particular inscriptions. I was also considering getting touch with the airport to ask if they could provide me with such a soft copy of their taxiway signage map before asking here thinking there would be a public platform that give out such data that some of the developers knew, which is undoubtedly quite a low likelihood.
