• 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.

Taxiway_Marks Modifications

Hi all,

Basically what I am wanting to do is modify the Taxiway_Marks texture for better use with FS set without Terrain Detail. You see, when the Terrain Detail slider is set to none, the taxiway_marks texture doesnt use the alpha channel when rendering in FS. This makes the surrounding colour in texture which I want to be transparent, display in Flight Sim. When you move the Terrain Detail slider to Land it renders the taxiway markings perfectly, which obviously means the alpha channel renders.

So what I wanted to do was find out if there was a special colour I could make the surrounding colour in the texture transparent (to dissapear) The yellow texture INSIDE the black borders are the only colours I want it to display in FS.

Or if I could somehow get FS to use the alpha channel for that texture without affecting the adjustment of the Terrain Detail setting altogether.

The reason I don't want to use the Terrain Detail at land is simply because of frames. My FPS goes up ALOT when its off. The blurry ground really doesnt bother me, but the taxiway markings without the transparency does.

Hope you can understand what I mean.

Dave
