• 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.

Hey folks,

Me again, and now I have to ask how to add maps for spring/harvest/winter and night. I tried it with the .inf-file of the project, which I want to compile. With SBuilderX it seems to be more difficult...

Anyone can explain me how to add maps to the photoscenery?

Thanks in advance!
 
Hi,

The inf file would be the right place top determine which time of day and month your photo should be used.

Here's the .inf-file:

Code: 
[Source]
   Type = MultiSource
   NumberOfSources = 2
[Source1]
   Type = BMP
   Layer = Imagery
   SourceDir = "."
   SourceFile = "L19X558123X558182Y345982Y346021.BMP"
   Variation = Day
   Channel_BlendMask = 2.0
   NullValue = 255,255,255
   SamplingMethod = Gaussian
   ulyMap =  52.0799279917512
   ulxMap =  11.616325378418
   xDim =  1.34110450744583E-06
   yDim =  8.24269247876735E-07

[Source2]
   Type = BMP
   Layer = Imagery
   SourceDir = "."
   SourceFile = "L19X558123X558182Y345982Y346021_LM.BMP"
   Variation = Night
   Channel_BlendMask = 2.0
   NullValue = 255,255,255
   SamplingMethod = Gaussian
   ulyMap =  52.0799279917512
   ulxMap =  11.616325378418
   xDim =  1.34110450744583E-06
   yDim =  8.24269247876735E-07

[Source3]
   Type = TIFF
   Layer = None
   SourceDir = "."
   SourceFile = "L19X558123X558182Y345982Y346021_B.TIF"
   SamplingMethod = Gaussian
   ulyMap =  52.0799279917512
   ulxMap =  11.616325378418
   xDim =  1.34110450744583E-06
   yDim =  8.24269247876735E-07

[Destination]
   DestDir = "."
   DestBaseFileName = "Photo01"
   DestFileType = BGL
   LOD = Auto
   UseSourceDimensions = 1
   CompressionQuality = 95
 
You also need to tell resample which seasons to use [source3] for:

[Source3]
Type = TIFF
Layer = None
SourceDir = "."
SourceFile = "L19X558123X558182Y345982Y346021_B.TIF"
Variation = July,August,September
SamplingMethod = Gaussian
ulyMap = 52.0799279917512
ulxMap = 11.616325378418
xDim = 1.34110450744583E-06
yDim = 8.24269247876735E-07
