• 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.

ok what settings for the polygon do you use to flaten and remove the Auto gen and create new scenery?

LOL here we go again

FSX? Use an airport background polgon with the tag set to Flatten Mask Class Map ExcludeAutogen

FS9? Use the Flatten Tool
 
ADE creates a second Bgl file with CVX in the name if you have terrain polys. Make sure that is installed in the same active scenery folder as the airport Bgl file. When you say it does not show - what do you mean?
 
Ok I have the 2 attached files in /fsx/scenery/101/scenery but the flatten does not appear. I have ORBX loaded would this have a bearing?

Hi,

:eek:I guess it would, because it is a bad idea to put addons in the fsx\scenery folder. Your orbx is probably in the addon scenery and has a higher priority in the scenery list. Hence your own addon will not show or even interfere with ORBX so that both work haphazardly.
Instead, save your addon airport in the addon scenery\scenery (i.e. your ADE airport bgl, your ADE object bgl and your ade CVX) and make sure your addon scenery folder is activated (and obviously higher up in the list of your scenery addons than the base scenery and ORBX).
 
A SUCCESS many thanks Rob

now to re model some items, modify some textures and put all of this together
