• 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.

SBuilderX Water Class texture color

I have noticed that the water class textures displayed in SBuilderX preview is a different hue to that which I can save.
While trying to blend my coastlines with the ocean textures smoothly I have been using the same class texture as the water class tiles in the surrounding ocean.

For example I select a water class in SBuilderX with the water class tool and cover the area I am working on, then I use the same water class texture from FSX scenery folder in my ground texture coastlines and blend it out gradually.
But even though I am using the same water class texture, the hue is different than what SbuilderX and FSX displays.

So I used the SBuilderX texture preview of the class texture and took a screenshot, still it does not save the screenshot the same color.
It appears to add a little more to the red channel.

My thoughts are that there may be another colorizing of the texture happening that is not in the image information itself, which would explain why even when capturing and saving the texture the hue is different.

Has anyone else noticed this and can you enlighten me on what is going on?

Also is there a way I can add my own water class texture without replacing one of the defaults? Reason being that I don't want the texture being changed by programs such as REX2.
