• 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.

Ground Textures

Howdy folks...I am, perhaps, missing the entire point here. Am I supposed to be able to trace a polygon in Google Earth, and thru the wizardry of FSX-KML, render what I am seeing in Google Earth unto FSX? If so, I am at a complete loss as to how to accomplish this. I have traced a poly, clamped it to the ground , tagged it LANDCLASS_Grass, hit the build button and was told that it couldn't find the .tif. So I re-tagged it as LANDCLASSPOLY_GRASS. This time it didn't complain, and a CVX file was produced in my addon scenery\scenery folder. However, when I went into FSX, the poly was nowhere to be seen. As I said, either I am totally missing the point, of I am doing something very wrong. Also, (and I sorry about this 'cause I know this isn't the right forum) is there any way to rotate the display in SBuilderX? I ask because I can get some wonderful ground textures, but with the limitations of drawing the square, I get TOO much ground texture
