SBuilderX: making a lake

[José Bourgoignie]

Hi,

Tried to make a lake with SFBuilderX for FSX. Finished a lake for FS2004 (see screenie).
Must I make an extra map for the .bgl ? Because: nothing to find. Or is it the CVX_.....bgl ?
Or is it to early to do such things ?
The way of working seems different from making a .bgl-file for FS2004.

Regards. José.

I had a similar problem with a lake in Alaska that MS left out. Used SBuilderX to replace the missing lake but it would not show. After try several types of Hydro_Polygons I was finally able to get it to show using:

"Hydro_Polygons_Default_Perennial" as the type.

You might try that and see if it works for you. SBuilderX is very limited at this point and hopefully a better version will be forthcoming.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Did the configuration you suggested to do and it worked well.

I have to watch out not to zoom too mach for making the polygon (zoom = 18 to 19 is fine... depending of course of the dimention of the lake).

Thanks for the help !
