• 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.

Hello together!
Is there a possibility to deaktivate (exclude) ALL shorelines in the hole FSX world? Are they defined in special bgl's?
 
...and now the question is:

Why would you want to remove them?
 
The idea to make big poly's I had too but I hoped there is another way...

Why I want to exclude them?
Hm in nearly 100% off all my photoreal captured islands the shorelines aren't in the right position. And the look of the waves.... I don't think they look really natural.
 
Hi jojolino.

You could use notepad to comment all the lines in terrain.cfg that read:

Effect=wavecontroller

to...

// Effect=wavecontroller


AND

Effect=lakewavecontroller

to...

// Effect=lakewavecontroller




That will just remove the waves. Otherwise you could alter your terrain.cfg to not identify shorelines at all. Just backup the original terrain.cfg before you start.

And yes, you could make an exclude poly to remove all the shorelines.
