I got told to follow this tutorial to gain some knowledge about scenery design and how GMAX works and that. So I thought let me give it ago but I am encountering some issues which are causing me to stress a lot. So I done the section where it wants me to get the average coordinates, I have done the section where it wants me to convert the values within MCX but now I am on GMAX and I am clueless.
What the exact issue is that I got told to create a plane I press plane on the right hand side as shown on the right hand side of the image.
I created the plane with 1 segment on length as well as width.
Now, it tells me to convert it to editable poly which I simply right click then convert to editable poly. Now, that's done I proceed and it tells me that I need to go to vertex and choose vertices in vertical. I didn't do that because I can't find it.
I am stuck where it wants me to create a material. I will put some images to help you guys understand what I mean so its easier for you to understand.
So I am in the material navigator and I pressed new as I want a new material.
I pick standard from the list and this is what I get...
So far so good, I want to use the satellite image as suggested so it could help me when plotting the taxiways and runway. so I press the box next to diffuse then another window pops up then I press Bitmap then I browse through to find the image
I found the one I wanted and whenever I press it gives me a error. I have different file types for example BMP and they won't work either. When I try use the BMP it gives me an error unsupported image file type. Its a pain and I have nothing else then report it here so you guys could help me. Thank you in advance.
