• 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.

Annotator not saving autogen correct

Hello everyone!

I am currently working on a photoreal area around Munich airport, and I have a problem with the autogen annotator...

I am creating all the polygones for the forests, but only a few of the created polygons get saved.

For the forest areas inside the red circles I have created the polygones five or more times already, but they get not saved:

What I have tried so far:
- Running Annotator with admin rights
- Deleting all the existing agn-files in the folder before saving
- Renaming the folder

An interesting fact is that sometimes the areas are changing, which not get saved...
The area in the blue circle I have created 3 or 4 times, but now it got saved.
The area in the red circle on the bottom has been already saved correctly, but now it is missing again.

Do you have an idea what is going wrong there?
Thank you in advance
Kind regards

Matthias
 
Hi,

Could it be that you create invalid polygons, for example by having edges crossing each other?
 
No, definitly not...
I thought that first too, but even simple rectangles are missing...

EDIT:
I have to mention, that this is the third photoreal area where I am adding the autogen.
On the first and second area everything worked perfect...
 
Do you by any chance have ground polygons in your scenery (or there is other scenery nereby utilizing GPs?). Ground polygons suppress autogen at a radius around them. You can use Arno's MCX to edit their properties so that they do not suppress the autogen and recompile them. I had this behavior once and this is what cured it.
 
Ground polygons would not remove them in Annotator, only in the sim.
