Obstruction Lighting

Featured Replies

Is there a simple XML way to add an obstruction light to a say a 4-antenna tower?I've created the radio tower in GMAX (v1.2) and am happy with the object but I need an easy way to add a red obstruction light. I also cannot locate the attachpoint tool in GMAX.Can someone point me in the right direction (SDK, forum thread) for a beginner's way of adding obstruction lighting?Many thanks.Jim

Hello Jim,Nice tower. If you don't have the FS Tools menu, then you will have to load it manually.1. Go to the MaxScript menu2. Open the scripts\startup folder in the FSX_GmaxGamePack directory (should be in the Modeling S.D.K.)3. Open the bootstrap script4. You should now have the Attach Tool with the FS Tools menuBest regards.Luis

Thanks Luis.I'm running FS2004. I found the ATTACHSCRIPT.ms but I do not have a bootstrap.ms I'm guessing that is the crux of my issue. I also found the Attahctool doc.I think I'll have to spend some quality time with GMAX first.Kind Regards,Jim
