Post by Jason32 »

Morning all,

Just a quick question to see if anyone can help me please.

I have painted and installed a Fs2004 aircraft in FSX, but it doenst have any bump mapping or self shadowing/aircraft shadowing on itself, does anyone know how to add them? or know of any tutorials online i can use?

Thanks all.

Hi Jason,

FS9 aircraft don't have bump mapping or self shadowing regardless of which sim you use. The bump mapping etc needs to be 'built into' the model. A model built using the FSX or P3D SDK should have it, but it won't be backwards compatible with FS9.
