• 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.

P3D v3 How to get a background map in SBuilderX?

I am trying to get any background map to appear in SBuilderX (32bit). The option is greyed out in SBuilderX. I try to load a geo-tiff and SBuilder says it is not in the correct format. I d/l the latest google.dll from here but there are no instructions on how to install/load it? Can't find a User's Manual come to think of it either.

Can anyone lead me the way?

thx,

Clutch
 
Update - In SBuilderX 64 I was able to click on 'show background' and that worked. Not sure where the map came from... is the OSM? But Becasue I use Windows 10 I must use SBuilderX 32, and there the 'show background' is greyed out and not able to load any of my geotiffs.
