• 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.

Abuou ground texture design with GMAX

I wanna ask something about making airport.
It's the first time that I make the airport by myself.
I have to make some ground texture,such as taxi way , gate number and red zone for dangerous, but I'm not sure whether should I firstly make a plane or a polygon in GMAX. Should I add any code in the file of ground property ?

I had read ''How to create the polygons'',but result is like this:
2008011611343863.jpg

the new ground texture and default guound texture aways flashing
My question is: i can creating a ground texture on gmax,after export as .xml and .mdl files, need modify .xml code? If need, what's the key code?

Need helps,thanks!!!
 
Yeah did you use the fs2002 gamepack and edit the asm files and adjust the layers? from what it looks like you have not edited the asm.
 
I saw fs2002 SDK had lot of tools ,
to edit asm's tools it's a plugings for GMAX or a stand software??
 
OK , now i export .asm files

which code can set adjust layer??how to modify?
IN this file,include building and ground texture,i think the ground texture need a single file to save,is it right?
 
Now i follow the Wiki's "Ground polygons with Gmax - How to create the polygons" to export .asm file, the g_0.asm file like this:

but i havd a problem ,in Wiki's "Ground polygons with GMax
" said find this field:

OBJECT_0_START label word
IFIN1 OBJECT_0_FAIL, image_complex, 2, 32767
ADDOBJ OBJECT_0_SCALE
SHADOW_CALL OBJECT_0_SCALE
OBJECT_0_FAIL label BGLCODE

but in my .asm files can not found.

why?

need help

thanks ~~~~~
 
Also from the code it seems you are using the FS2004 GMax gamepack, not the FS2002 one. You can only tweak the FS2002 output. The tweaks do not work in the FS2004 MDL files.
