• 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.

Autogen near large custom objects

Hi,

I created some terrain textures and now I am applying autogen trees and buildings with "annotator.exe". All is well except

the augtogen builtings and trees don't show near larger custom objects.

In particular, I have an area with a lot of little houses and lots of trees in an area in between two runways and it will be a gigantic pain in the neck to create them all with "generic buildings" (I will if I have to, but I rather not, and no solution for the trees).

Is there a way of forcing the autogen to show there (inside the yellow rectangle)?

(Picture attached)

Thanks!

Fern

Hi Fern,

You would have to figure out why they are excluded there. It could be because of the runway, then you can do little about it. But it could also be because of a custom 3D object. They usually exclude autogen in a square around them. So if their bounding box is a bit wrong that could have a big effect.
 
Bounding box

Hi, Arno

Thanks.

I am sure it is because of the runway(s). I have re-examined the bounding box of the hangars and they are as small as I can make them.

Not to worry, I'll just add little houses...

Thanks!
