FSX | FSX-SE Scenery Design Forum - How To

Hi team,Firstly, let me say how nice it is to be on board. I have a question regarding scenery. but I will advise you all that I am VERY NEW to this part of FS2002. I have got the hang of aircraft, sounds, etc, but I am just starting out on scenery.Firstly, I do have a lot of the apps required (Airport 2.6 etc) but what I need to know is this;I have imported a fair bit of scenery that was developed for FS2000, and hats off to all of the creators out there, because your work is brilliant. The one problem that I have found is this; On some airports, that have had new taxiways, aprons etc installed, when you taxi over them, your aircraft reacts as if there is no surface in p…

Hello!I'm looking for freeware sceneries for the new FS2002 and I hope that you can help me finding them (if the exist):- Bolzano (South Tyrol)- Antalya (Turkey) - D

avsim download site says it's shareware...so what's up with this registration key????? any help would be greatly appreciated

I am very new at this scereny stuff. i need to no how to move jetways into place. i am trying to edit some of the oringal scereny and i dont no how. can some one help. Thanks

HELP!!!! my computer crashed and i lost the number for my SimFlyers KMCO version. i want it back but i lost the number what do i do?? can some one give me it or help me out??Thanks

My directory for api/projects/textures keeps changing??? Very inconvenient as if it does not remember my default preferences I keep having to hop around teh directory structure to find the relevant directory. Preferences point to the relevant directories but everytime I for eg. save an api or paste a texture from a particular directory, that last directory used becomes the current directory for all future categories...??? Now I dont remember this happening previously....only since a new install. Using Win2000.Anyone else having this problem? Solution?ThanksShez

How do I add a way to when you pull up to a gate it will dock with you. Just like the jetDock by SimFlyers??? i need help please

Well, here they are:I have an object (a simple box) but one of its sides is being considered as two polygons (one with two facets and the other with three). How can I 'merge' both polygons into only one? And after I do that, is there any way I can simplify the polygon? (because two triangles are enough to draw a square, five is a little too much for me).Thanks a lot.Rafa

Dear All:I have made an apron texture parallel to my airport polygon 154 degrees, the texture is 26x256 pixels, but ASD2.1 shows the polygon with white color, if i chenge the texture to the r8 format the texture appear , but it loss colors.Is there way to change the SCASM source code to allow me assign bmp textures to apron polygons and add nigh light effects to the ground polygons?SCASM can compile 512 x512 bmp textures for ground polyogns (Apron polygons) ?Thanks.Alfredo Mendiola LoyolaLima PeruThanks.Alfredo Mendiola LoyolaLima Peru

Hello,I'm trying to develop some AI flight plans, in some airports, I haven't enough parking places or for example, in Point

Hi All,I have created a test airport (actually an attempted recreation of KRYY out in the middle of the Atlantic) and was very successful in creating the runway. However, using the Create Taxiway feature doesn't seem to result in visible taxiways when the compiled scenery is viewed in FS2002 (although runway shows up just fine). The taxiways show up clearly in Airport 2.60, but not in FS2002. All settings in the Create Taxiway dialogue are default except for the width. Any ideas?Thanks for your time,Doug MiannayWoodstock, GA

I just installed PIC and I got these errors; have any ideas of why?

MS has released a new SDK for GMax, that includes a tutorial for creating a house in GMax, how to apply the textures and how install in FS2002 scenery. zone.msn.com/flightsim/Very good tutorial.They also released SDK to make cab files.Dave/KAZO

Greatings,Finaly I got some corage (although not a lot of time) to experiment MASM to compile scenery.I constructed a model in GMAX which successfully appears in the FS2002 world. But what I realy miss is the possibility of editing the object

Hi ,I am a newcommer on fs design i have read in fs that i can build my own adventures and lessons but i dont know where to start and what to do maybe its not easy to build this i dont know i would be happy if some master can show me the way.Thanks for everyone.

I have nearly completed my first pure BGLC airport and will hopefully upload it into the file section later today. I will include the source BGLC files, new include files for MASM/BGLC, and a fairly rough description of how to do it. This should be of interest for people who want to learn how to use the new mesh features (water/flatten polygons and decal polygons).I will hopefully also have some time to test my airspace bgl and wipe out the last bugs. I will also include a source file with some very brief documentation in this file.Watch out for these files, which will hopefully appear today, and if not over next week:Ryans Creek aerodromeNew Zealand airspaceCheers, Chris…

Hi people !After public request, you can now use FsRegen to modify the GUIDs of existing objects. Why ? To make them NOT working. Why ? So you can make objects with the same GUIDs as the ones you change, replacing all objects of the standard library to your liking...BACK UP YOUR FILES FIRST !! FsRegen automatically does it for you, but since it's alpha I would be cautious. I tested it on my systems, but you never know....Another thing that slipped my attention was that the MS libraries increment the FIRST two segments of the GUID for successive objects in a library. Do the same with your libs. The increment button changed to conform.Click on the blue version number of FsR…

I have been to FS Insider site and the SDK page but see no Terrain SDK for download. Where can I get it ? Don't I need it to use LandClass Assitant ?SteveCYYZ

I placed some effects with the BGL Placer application in Effects SDK and the resulting file that it created was an Excel comma seperated data file. I dragged this to the BGLC to compile a BGL but get nothing.Is the BGL placer supposed to create an Excel file? It seems to me it should probably create a simple text file. Also, will the BGL be created inb the same folder as the BGLC application?tanks in advance for any suggestions or info!

Hey everyoneDoes anyone know if/when FSSD 2 or an updated version of fssd are going to be released? I am asking because i am creating scenery for fs2002, and am wondering whether to wait ( i am in no hurry) for any fssd II or whether to just go ahead and buy FSSD.Any assistance would be of great helpCheersJarrad

I would like to make small contribution in making pains of learning gMax easier by recommending site with quite good tutorials for fundamental techniques used in gMax. www.passion3d.com. But do not get distracted by some really cool pictures of wide computer screens. Head straight to gMax tutorials and download at least one to try. I have them all and play them often. They have no sound, but surprisingly IMHO that does not diminish their educational values. Ted

I have released my current version of ACT scenery for the Australian Capital Territory in Australia. These downloads provide photo textures, autogen scenery and limited 3D buildings for the upper 2/3 of the ACT for a download of less than 5MB.I have uploaded my scenery to my old site for download as separate files or at AVSIM bundled under ACT2002.ZIPYou can download at http://members.ozemail.com.au/~paeet/Note this is a beta. I would like to do more but am jammed for time (again)so I thought I'd upload so you can use it.I still would like to do night textures and maybe seasons (these could use the same technique) but don't know when I'll get the time.I would like to than…
