• 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.

    Semi-Automated Building Footprint Extraction from Satellite Imagery for Autogen Creation in FSX/P3D

    It is possible that the blob remover tool may be crashing before it finishes. Try running the tool from the command line to see if it returns any errors before it disappears. You can use similar code to automatically open the tool for you: START cmd.exe /k "D:\Program...

    Semi-Automated Building Footprint Extraction from Satellite Imagery for Autogen Creation in FSX/P3D

    Did you reclassify the image after running r.null? If so you should only be left with a black and white image. Your empty space should be fully black now. When exporting did you change the raster data format to BMP, and, in the Creation Tab, ensure that you checked Do not write the GDAL...

    Semi-Automated Building Footprint Extraction from Satellite Imagery for Autogen Creation in FSX/P3D

    I see the issue. The nodata option for r.out doesn't change the null input values but instead represents those output values as nodata. I have long removed QGIS from my PC, but a quick search has shown that r.null may be able to help. I will do some further reading to see if I can guide you but...

    Semi-Automated Building Footprint Extraction from Satellite Imagery for Autogen Creation in FSX/P3D

    Is it possible that you forgot to assign new values to certain classes? How many classes did you use in the unclassified supervision (step 7) and which classes did you assign to be black (value 0) or white (value 255)? I may be wrong but the error sounds like certain classes were not...

    It shouldn't, but if that is the case I will ask the user to move said backup to see if the problem is solved and report back.

    Access to the 'default.xml' path is denied.

    I am getting the following error on a (French) user's machine. I feel I can safely confirm that the error does not come from any particular scenery, nor does it come from a corrupted default.xml file, as I have tested different ones with the same result. ACM succesfully goes through the entire...

    P3D v4 Polygonal vegetation with scenProc v2

    Are you sure that the attribute is indeed type and not something else like name or class, etc. Perhaps providing your shapefile will help.

    Semi-Automated Building Footprint Extraction from Satellite Imagery for Autogen Creation in FSX/P3D

    Any luck @Bungo ? P.S: If the BMP format would limit the size of tiles you could work with, you could possibly try using another format in Photoshop and skip the use of BREC. Photoshop's "Magic Wand" selection tool and "Contract Selection" command could be used to remove small specs. However...

    Semi-Automated Building Footprint Extraction from Satellite Imagery for Autogen Creation in FSX/P3D

    Hi Braedon (and @GaryGB), It's been a while since I've used this method, but I now realize 2 things: 1) This method utilizes the classification tools of GRASS, thus QGIS will HAVE to be used up until at least step 8. GlobalMapper could be used afterwards. 2) @Bungo I have never tried using more...

    Marc, I think you need to take a read of the scenproc manual and the link I sent. Importing shapefiles are done via the IMPORTOGR step.

    OpenStreetMap Datas

    Shapefiles are for everything in Scenproc. If you did autogen already then it is the same procedure. These are my settings. The most important ones for bright enough lights are Destination Blend = One and Source Blend = One. Look on the forums for the other ways that people have created light...

    Marc, if you want only the areas that your photoreal covers, you will have to remove the rest of the data that you do not want. You can manually select and delete the areas that you do not need, or perhaps you can research how to get the bounding areas of your photoreal into a shapefile that you...

    Marc, Bernardo is correct, I forgot that scenproc can filter out unwanted data when you first load the data. Sometimes I tend to clean up my data before loading into Scenproc and I rarely ever use filters when loading, so it slipped my mind. Here is an example of the type of filters that you...

    Hey Marc, the tutorial I wrote used GlobalMapper. In QGIS you will have to open the Attribute Table (1) and then sort by Highway (2). Then you can see the different types of roadways in your data and get rid of the rest. I don't work very much in QGIS but hopefully this can get you started on...

    That did the trick. Weird, I've never had to set this before for P34 exports. Completely looked over it. Thanks a lot Arno. Regards, Zev.
