• 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.

Hi guys. I'm exploring Sbuilder FS9 and I want to make a photoscenery with this program but when I export the scenery some lines appear. It seems like separate Tiles. I don't know why but when I get close to them just disappear :) it is so odd. I hope you can help me with your experience with this software.

Best Regards,

Alfonso

Hi,

Can you tell us a little more about how you made the photo scenery with SBuilder?

If you use resample you should not have lines. Or did you use the higher resolution option using SCASM polygons or maybe VTP polygons?
 
Hi arno. Im a really newbie using sbuilder for fs9. I took the Big image from SBuilder X, I just used sbuilder fs9 to locate the image in the specific coordinates, after that I apply a water mask and a land mask, and night map. after that I just Compile it using the same sbuilder. I don't either know how to use Resample tool for fs2004 and the SCASM to make my scenery. I hope you help me giving me more information about or tutorials. I'll really appreciate that.

PD: I compile in groups either water mask group, land mask group, and Coast lines group and the photo scenery group to not force the computer.

Best regarsd,

Alfonso

Hi Alfonso.

In CFS2, I found that the display engine does not use "0" in the VTP1 256x256 matrix. This was fixed by making a utility to convert all cell 0's to 1's in a disassembled file.

I would have to look at the BGL, and see if it is the same problem.

Hi guys thanks for your help again. Hi luis, I'm gonna see the link and rhumbaflappy this is my attached BGL of the scenery.

Hi Alfonso.

The type of BGL is VTP2, and the BGL is well-formed and displays perfectly in TMFViewer. I think Luis' advice is the best.

If you do not need to overdraw the image with VTP polys or lines, it might be better to just make an INF file and resample the image, which produces a photoreal BGL and textures.
