• 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.

Hi,

Background images do not show up in FS, they are just for the ADE program.
 
Hi,

I'm not sure about a particular image but if you got it from google/bing/yahoo maps then you can use SBuilderX to add those to FSX. SBuilderX is available in the downloads section.

That is correct. ADE uses background images to help place the airport. To add photo scenery you need to use a tool such as SBuilder (FS9) or SBuilderX (FSX).
 
Thank you for your help.

I have got from google earth but i edit it now the file such as 11mb .png

https://www.box.com/s/b03rsj9y14305le5paxk here is file.

Just is there any way to make it like copy/paste to fs9

(i tried to find out with sbuilder but it does not opens bgl file.)

The thing is just i want to paste this image to 3rd party airport...


Sorry for my bad english.
 
Hi,

With SBuilderX you can go to the location of the image and then compile it as a photo scenery. But I think you also have to be careful of using Google maps because they have strict terms of use. :(
 
SBuilder does not need to open the ADE file - you compile your image into completely separate BGL files.
