• 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.

FS2004- Thumbnail collection for ground textures?

I am experimenting with FS2004 ground textures.
They are located in the scenery – world – texture folder.
I have been clicking on each one individually to see what the numbers (e.g. 003b2su6.bmp) look like, very time consuming.
Question: is there a collection of all the thumbnail image with corresponding texture number to refer to make this visual inquiry easier?

Thanks
Jay
 
Hi Jay:

You may wish to review the info in this thread: :idea:

https://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/custom-land-class.426177/post-639049


You may also wish to review this non-visual guide to the file naming used in the FS2004 SDK: :pushpin:

[FS2004 SDK install path]\TERRAIN_SDK\TerrainTextureNames.doc


PS: IIRC, Holger Sandmann had once posted a visual guide to land class textures for FS9 in the past, although I am not sure it is still online; this is to be distinguished from the FSX land class reference Holger kindly restored to the FS Developers resources area.

Hope this helps. :)

Thanks again GaryGB,
Another collection of excellent information, a big help.

It would be interesting if anybody had a copy of the, now lost - landclass table compiled by Gerrish Gray.
