• 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.

FSXA Texture mapping

Dear friends,
since 3 days I've a problem with textures mapping in FSXA and I'm not able to find a solution, so maybe someone can help me to solve this infamous problem.
I built hundred of gmax object and they were exported as well but this texture problem make me crazy.

My gmax model is correctly mapping with psd texture with right material and it's exported in the right way as FSX MDL using dds texture.
On FSXA this object show another texture with rondomize mapping.
My texture has been exported with dxtbmp tools with vertical flip as usual from .psd file to dds (dxt1 no alpha) as well.
Gmax show the correct mapping and texture in its views but FSXA show this particular object with another texture and unmapping.
I map the gmax model for 3/4 times (I don't remember as well how many time re-mapping it) and I changed the guid name, the texture name and MDL name every time before the export because the duplicate bug is know by me.

Please someone of you have an idea about this problem, it's seem that gmax don't compile the correct texture and mapping as well.

I hope my problem has been explain as well and if you need any further information please don't hesitate to request it.

Thank you very much for your help in advance

regards
 
I'm guessing you have a duplicate Material name in your Gmax scene.

This will confuse the exporter and only the first instance of the Mat name will be used.

As a matter of habit, i name each material in relation to the texture, which makes things easier, but also prevents duplicate entries
