• 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.

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    I read through one of the links, and I realized that the way for me to fix my "accidental flattening" issue with the polygons, was to set a fake altitude of -9999 for the LWM and texture polygons, and my hills were visible again! :D 2 new questions: From looking at the project files of the...

    Unhandled Exception/Index out of range when using Traffic and Parking Analyzer

    This was the pop up I received when selecting the files: After that it shut down the T&P Analyzer, and returned me to the main AIFP window.

    My apologies, yes I am using 3.2.05. And thank you for the heads up about the system resource exhaustion! :)

    Unhandled Exception/Index out of range when using Traffic and Parking Analyzer

    I'm afraid so. Also I should have been a bit more specific as well, The issue exists with both the 6 files in question, as well as when I try to analyze my entire World of AI library to see how much traffic my airports can handle. Here's the google drive link...

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    Hmm. Is it possible to cut holes in my polygons in SBuilder for FS9? Im wondering if thats what I need to do to make my mesh working again, since they were able to form terraces earlier.

    FS2004 How do I find a specific stock comms center so I can edit it?

    Currently, my Island airport on the south atlantic rift, it has two Centers in the Comms list. The problem is, they dont show up in the actual atc box in game until Im practically on top of the airport. The only other ATC Comms Center is Atlantico Center at frequency 128.600. Ive searched high...

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    I look forward to hearing what you find! :) In the meantime, from continued work on the project, I have noticed that when I add a polygon of *any* kind to parts or the whole of the island, the polygon seems to act as a flattener, even when flattening is not selected. Right now, I have just two...

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    Yeah here's the file types supported by Wilbur, since that the source of the height data. Provided by cell phone cuz my hotspot data limit is near and reset day is far. ;)

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    I used at least three, Gimp, Wilbur x64 from Fracterra, and Sid Meier's Civilization 2 Test of Time for the original outline/coastline. I used Gimp to help with the recoloring, and Wilbur x64 is a fractal terrain generator. It's GUI is a bit user-unfriendly, unfortunately, but they were kind...

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    Indeed, it is custom fictional. After posting, I made some progress, where after reading up on the inbuilt help and some googling, I was able to get my mesh to appear in FS9 by originally converting from PNG to BMP as I already planned to; however after several recoloring attempts in Gimp, the...

    FS2004 How do I convert my greyscale bump height BMP for use as a mesh in SBuilder?

    I have a greyscale height image for an island I originally made for SimCity 4, but I would like to use it as a mesh for FS9 to import using SBuilder. Looking at the help files, I see that mesh maps are generally green. How do I convert it into a format usable by sbuilder, and how do I actually...

    Unhandled Exception/Index out of range when using Traffic and Parking Analyzer

    While the T&PA works just fine on a few individual files, I have noticed that when bulk selecting large numbers of large traffic files, I get an unhandled exception error, forcing me to either quit or continue. Selecting continue doesn't seem to do anything; the Traffic and Parking Analyzer will...

    FS2004 Can someone improve my ancient model and make it a paintkit?

    I have an old model from FS98/FS2000 that I was able to extract with ModelconverterX and make a .3ds. I originally made it with Flight Sim Flight Shop for FS5, iirc. To be frank though, I suck at advanced modeling and texture mapping, and have zero experience with animation, although I have made...

    FS2004 How do I tell AIFP to update an old Airports.txt file with data from a custom AirportsList?

    The x button is greyed out, rendering it unusable. Im using the most recent update. As for the airports, I didn't fully realize that. Thank you! :)

    FS2004 How do I tell AIFP to update an old Airports.txt file with data from a custom AirportsList?

    When tweaking older traffic files and saving as new filesets, I get a message box that says "The flight plans/and or other data contain errors or other shortcomings. As well, the following airports:" which then fills my entire screen listing every single airport in the text file. The only way to...

    FS2004 Does restricting processor affinity to a single core reduce game crashes?

    Good to know thank you. :)

    FS2004 Does restricting processor affinity to a single core reduce game crashes?

    I tried setting affinity in the shortcut using CPUCount:1, but it doesn't work. Are there any 3rd party apps that can help? Regardless, does setting the affinity to one core reduce the frequency of game crashes?

    I am unable to recover my sources I used for my EVP mods. How do I have EVP show my custom airlines?

    Naturally, I think I lost the original files I had to make my current Evp_accelerated.gvp, which has some of my custom airlines and airports, as well as the update to include the A380 in the AC list. But when re-installing EditVoicePack, they dont show up in the lists, and instead show up in the...
