• 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.

what is the procedure for creating and installing a new land class texture as in "barren tundra" etc. I believe they are 8 bit BMP DXT1 256 x 256.

Hi,

I would not use 8 bit, that limits the quality. Dxt1 textures are 16 bit by default.

To get better quality most developers would also use higher resolutions, for example 1024x1024.
 
Awesome Arno thanks for the tip ... I was also wondering how do you make it show in the library so you can apply it in a land class poly in ADE.

Hi,

I think you would have to ask Jon or another ADE user how to show them in ADE as well.

If you put your custom landclass bgl in your scenery folder, it should work to just have the textures in the texture folder of your project.
