• 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.

P3D v5 Germany Photoreal

Hi Matthias,

interesting, those are much more generous conditions than I remember from when I last checked. I suppose the geospatial market is increasingly shifting to 3D content, which seems to be their new "prohibited conduct" type of data (If you think commercial imagery is expensive try licensing 3D building data :oops: ).

In any case, great project you've got going there; as an ex forest ecologist I particularly like the variety and distribution of tree types.

Cheers, Holger
 
OK.

It seems that I am missing one of your regions.

The area is south and west of Stuttgart:



If you cou;d search for any one of the following agn files and tell me which region it is in I would be very grateful.

(All of the agns should contain heavily wsooded areas).

Oh, indeed... Especially LIDAR-Data or in any way processed data (building footprints, high resolution DEMs, etc...) are very, very expensive.
I tried to find data for countries where the data situation is much worse than in Central Europe (Africa...). In vain.

Yes, I spent a lot of time to get the treetypes as exact as possible. But I think, the result is quite good!

Thank you.

That worked great.

How are you getting on with Munich? This seems to be the only area I am missing.

Yes, of course it has a watermask! ;)
I am using a self-created photoscenery, the imagery is from google maps, the watermask is based on OpenStreetMap data, and there is also a blendmask for the states...
But wait until tomorrow... :cool:

Good morning everybody, the first pictures of lower saxony have arrived!

These POI-Models are from ORBX Germany, but fit perfectly to the scenery.

Matthias, did particular post sparked my interest. With the recent release of FlyTampa's KLAS, there's been a renewed interest in photoscenery over OrbX's landclass-based scenery with some users, since the desert areas look about a million times better with photoscenery versus the standard landclass approach. Some people have therefore purchased beautiful Megascenery Earth v3 packages, and I have to agree that the clarity of the imagery is pretty amazing. Of course there is only summer included, but frankly, I wouldn't be too concerned with that in desert areas such as Nevada and Southern California. However, I think it'd be sad to get rid of all the autogen, as well as the POIs that come with OrbX's SoCal area.

You have demonstrated in this thread that it's entirely feasible to make your own autogen for these large coverage areas, and in this particular post you demonstrate the ability to merge you photoscenery with OrbX's POIs. My question is: how did you manege to do this merge? This would be my prime requirement before even starting to try to make any autogen for the LA or Vegas areas. Did you simply position your scenery below OrbX's regions? Any help would be appreciated!
 
Oh, I have just removed the "Custom"-Entry of ORBX GES/GEN and then placed my scenery below the other ones... That's all!
 
Hi Mathias,

Can ypu please tell me which download includes 011222113220331An.agn ?

It is just north of Saarlouis-Duren near the French border.
 
Hallo Matthias,
I love your autogen for Germany, how is it going with the Belgium plan?
Thanks and kind regards
Rudi
