• 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.

Hello :-)

I want to add a photorealistic Layout with SbuilderX to a airport scenery. My problem is that the coordinates of the photoscenery don´t fit to airport. The runway in the fotoscenery is beside the airport scenery and some other things as well.

Is there a way to give the photoscenery a new position (new coordinates)?


Thank you,
Holger
 
Hello Holger,
usually the airport has the wrong coordinates, not the background. So you will probably have to edit the airport itself.
 
Hi,

I would first double check if the photo scenery is placed correctly, but as said most often the airport is wrong. So once you are sure the photo is right, you better update the airport to match the photo.
 
Thanks for your reply!

You are right of course that the airport has the wrong coordinates. But my basic thought was that it could be much easier to give the photo.bgl new coordinates than to give all bgl´s of the airport new positions.

I was hoping that there is way to replace the photo.bgl in a way like instant scenery can do it. Also I tried to open the photo.bgl with modelconverterX in intention to add new coordinates with the wizzard but it can´t open it.

Thanks,
Holger
 
Hi,

You would have to compile the photo bgl again with resample to move it. But that assumes you have the source files. Then you could give them an offset. But I would not do that, since you are making your scenery less accurate.
