• 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.

FSX Airport plateau problem

I am currently making Malta scenery, and created mesh from SRTM data. However, my problem is that default airport is on higher altitude than correct mesh, and runways & taxiways & their surroundings are bit higher than rest of the terrain.


Ok, so this is what I have tried to do so far: I first created big flatten poly around the airport and set its altitude as 64 meters. Then I created Exclude all airport boundaries poly over it, and changed airport altitude to 64 meters in Airport Design Editor. Now most of the area is fine, airport is at correct altitude, but for some reason there is still some amount of terrain over runway. I am also making photoscenery, thats why weird ground color.

This is what it looks now:

I would highly appreciate it if someone could help me about how to correctly do this.

Hi

Did you put airport altitude stub generated by ADE in the Scenery\World\Scenery folder by any chance?

You just have to change the altitude of the airport and make the flatten polygon, automatically Ade create a cvx file with the new height in Fsx/scenery/world. Always work.
Edit: at least in the latest release of Ade.
