• 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.

Hey guys, I am currently creating some scenery for my hometown at the moment and I have a few questions. First of all in ADE I have 2 asphalt runways and one concrete and I was able to get those working, for some reason all the taxiways have been set to concrete but all show up as asphalt, same goes with a parking lot that I made cement, any suggestions? Secondly I created photoreal scenery and I am wondering how do I create the roads with cars on top of the photo? Lastly, is there a way to configure the way lights show up on FTX global, or are those automatically inserted?
 
Hi BroMo,
cannot answer all questions but try to answer at least two of them.
  1. ADE: If you have problems with runways and taxiways that do not show up with the correct surface, there is perhaps a duplicate of the airport active. You can search these duplicates with a small program of Scruffyduck. You can find it here:http://www.scruffyduck.org/simple-airport-scanner/4584282795
    Did you load the stock airport in ADE and delete or change the default taxiways? Otherwise you have the stock airport and your user defined airport parallel and this would also explain these effects.
  2. Traffic: You can add traffic with SBuilderX (freeware) or InstantScenery (payware), AFAIK the ADE program does not support freeway-traffic
  3. FTX global: I have no idea because I do not FTX global sorry

Hey Jorg, thank you for your help! I found the problem with the ADE texture, and my REX Texture Direct of asphalt and concrete runways was pretty similar so i changed them to contrast each other and have a distinct difference and now it looks as it should. As for the traffic i have both SBuilderX and Instant Scenery but i didn't know that was what i would use to insert the traffic, i will take a look at those later on this afternoon! Thanks again for your help!
