• 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 YRED redcliffe (question about ftx autogen and legal matters)

Hi,

I'm in the process of creating a few smaller Australian airports.
And i have a little question. I have FTX Australia, FTX trees HD and Global Base installed.
I have created the AGN files for autogen trees but i'm not too sure if its using the ORBX trees.
The default description file is used. Is the annotator using the autogendescription file which contains the orbx trees ?
I don't want to go through legal problems when this scenery is released.
Any help will be great !
WIP shots custom buildings will be added !

Regards
Ridz_YSSY

There is a set of autogen configuration files in the autogen SDK which should not have been replaced by the ORBX Addon.
So you can use these to avoid including 3rd party stuff.
 
There is nothing to worry about, legally. You can annotate using the autogen GUID's added via FTX Global, Australia, etc.

The only advice I would give is to make sure to include a default version for users who have none of the above.
 
All the Australian autogen used by Orbx is just the default autogen with custom upgraded textures, so go for it

The most used trees are the tc_pine_scrub, tb_eucalyptus gum/ tb_eucalyptus savanna, tc_Olive trees, and tb_maples and tb_populars

All these trees can be selected using the default groupings, so then it works with and without Orbx regions, though I bet most aussie simmers would have FTX Australia, its pretty horrible in default!
