• 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.

Photogrammetry Airport Exclusions

Hi All,

I'm working on a couple of freeware projects one of which is an urban airport in a photogrammetry city. Photogrammetry is pretty good but the default "airport" scenery extends aprons and OSM buildings quite a ways into the photogrammetry which looks pretty poor both at a distance and on the ramp. I can't for the life of me find out what property of what object exludes TIN and photogrammetry from arround an airport. The data definitely exists, I've seen the whole airport in photogrammetry when loading up the project for a few seconds, I just can't find out how the boundary between is set. Any help is gratefully appreciated.

Polygon of type Buildings | TIN

Thanks for you're reply. In the scenery editor there is no polygon object listed under the airport in question. The only way I can find to overide it is with an exclusion rectangle over the airport object but that removes all OSM buildings and then applies the apron texture to the TIN buildings. What am I missing here?
 
Also I've tried adding polygons with excl. OSM builsings and force TIN but that only does the first half. It's almost like there's a hidden exclusion tied to the airport but not actually part of the airport if that makes sense.
 
Is the photoprogrammetry from Microsoft? Or was it created from another source?
Is it possible you are seeing the airport for a few seconds before the photoprogrammetry layers over it?

If the photoprogrammetry is from say Google maps, then there is no tin or data, there is just one giant sheet of 3d model to deal with.

You may be able to raise the airport over the photoprogrammetry, and even build on top of it. But you cannot remove anything with doing it in blender.
