• 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.

Satellite Image size

Hello, I have a problem about the satellite image when applied in blender.firstly, these are my steps in mapping the texture to the plane.

1. create a plane (Unit is changed to meter)
2. applied texture to the plane by following the tutorial on wiki. (projecting from bound).
3. Convert coordinate from sbuilderx into MCX and use the FlatX/Y into the 'dimension' box in blender.

The main problem is now the size of satellite image in blender (I took the terminal length as reference) is not the same as in the real world ( reference from google earth). The size in blender is 300m but in google earth is 500m. What is wrong here? I followed exactly according to the steps available in wiki.
 
Maybe there is some flat earth to curved earth distortion happening.
Which latitude is your project located at?
 
Hi Dave,
the airport located at 5.297139, 100.276864. When I'm using 3dsmax, the problem didn't happened
