• 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.

FSX Sbuilderx Water Polygon Problem

Good day guys! I have a problem about water terrain in fsx. I've set the altitude of the water polygon to be '0' but as you can see at the picture, there is slope on the water.The land altitude is about 1 meter...How to fix this? Any ideas? Please?

The only time I have run into this problem is when I have had an ocean polygon meet a river polygon. The solution was to adjust the river polygon points down to 0 where it meets the ocean polygon, if the slope was small. If the slope was larger I would split the river polygon and create a sloped polygon running from 0 up to the elevation of the split.
 
Yup thanks Mike!...I've managed to find the culprit...the 'main island' somehow need to be at altitude of '0' for the weird slope to vanish...wonder why?
 
The only time I have had an island create a slope problem (when it wasn't caused by an adjacent river slope) is when the island was in a lake. The problem was caused by having Global Mapper "Get 'Elevations' From Attribute Value" using MODE_ELEV_M, the solution was to manually reapply the elevation of the lake in SBuilderX.
