• 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.

I have noticed that the work to make with FSX KML must be limited by LOD 9.
I have had problems in several airports that are constructed right in the boundary between two areas LOD.

This is correct? The border or limit is the space of LOD 9 or LOD 11?

How is solved this? They know some way simpler that to draw in GE the LOD space?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards

I think you mean QMID boundaries. ??

The stock FSX polys will have boundaries on QMID11 size squares. If your airport or water or whatever polygon is split on one of these boundaries, you will have to make sure your exclude poly covers both.

One of the things that FSX_KML may get in the future, is an overlay grid of the QMID11 boundaries. That would be useful because we could see exactly where the boundary is, instead of having to ALT-TAB to TMFViewer and get coordinates.

At present you can see the QMID bounds in TMFViewer if you load in a stock cvx bgl.

I did not know you were in Usuhaia, that is a neat place on the Beagle Channel if I recall correctly.

Correct. Note that FSX has the concept of both QMID and LOD. They are different from each other by 2.

QMID11 == LOD9 == clip boundary for (most) vector data.

Thanks very much.

Ushuaia is a nice city and have a two airports (SAWO and SAWH) near of Beagle Chaannel in the south of big island of Tierra del Fuego.
