• 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.

    Part of the problem may be that you're trying to use Forest like you would an autogen based tool. Forest does not deal with autogen at all. To create a forest mix, go here: http://lc0277.gratisim.fr/sceneobjects/vegetation/index.html The GUID of each individual type of tree is listed beneath...

    Hello. I took a look at the link posted but I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve exactly. There are many photos in that article. What vegetation mix are you looking for? Do you know the names of the types of trees?

    I have not. I've been taking a break from flight simulation (and coding) for a few months. I can certainly whip something up once I get back in to it.

    Well...technically... Forest can place any object for which you have the GUID. So with a bit of creativity and patience you could in fact place houses. I have successfully done so in limited testing. What you would need to do is define the orientation of the buildings in tree groups such...

    Glad to hear you got it all sorted. I have upgraded almost all my machines to Windows 10 an while it has been a pleasant experience overall there are several OS bugs I have discovered and I noticed that Forest (or rather the click once installer) does not properly register .fdef and .fdefauto...

    You are correct, the treegroup color and tolerance values are what the program uses to determine what image pixels are probable vegetation. The "tolerance" determines how picky the program is - the wider the tolerance the more parts of the image that will be included in a group. My break is...
