• 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.

FSXA Create road terrain vectors

Hello to all. I tried to convert the shp data of the roads to create the bgl. shp2vec gives me an error probably due to the .dbf file. Can someone help me?

I also tried to understand how to do it with scenproc but I didn't find enough documentation.

Greetings from Italy

Hi,

I have moved your post into a new thread, as it is a new problem.

When you try to process your data with shp2vec you need to make sure that the data has the attributes as specified in the SDK. That means you need a UUID for each feature and also the attributes that tell shp2vec how to process the data.

If you look at section 5.9 of the scenProc manual you find a sample script there to create the terrain vectors using scenProc. All you need to do is adjust the filters to match the attributes of your data. You need to have the development release of scenProc for this to work btw.

Thanks for your availability. very kind, using the example file a little while ago I managed to make the first .bgl with the streets. Preview on the screen. Unfortunately I see the streets if loaded alone, but they do not overlap on my photoreal scenario. I also try with sceneproc dk

Hi,

Did you make roads or freeway traffic? Roads will not show on top of photoreal scenery, they are hidden by it. With freeway traffic you will get the traffic on your photoreal.

I'm trying to create the roads. (freeway is different method? it can be shown on photoreal) Do you believe that these 9 .bgl matters inside the squares, which I know; importing all 9 into sceneproc, (section 5.9 script) could this overwrite the final BGL?
