• 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.

GIS (i.e.Shapefile) to Autogen areas (FSX)

Does anyone know if it is possible to convert GIS polygon data (specifically ESRI shapefiles) into areas used to autogen aerial textures?

It would save me a lot of work if i could convert landcover data (captured from aerial photos) to agn files which would sit on top of the bgl versions of the same photos....This would allow rapid creation of large areas since I already have access to all this data.

Any ideas?

As an aside, has anyone who has downloaded SP1 tried the annotator tool? Is it now possible to change the texturesheet of the agn buildings? (there was/is a bug where when you try to change sheets and try to save it wont let you- All my buildings are textured as {default?} english cottages which looks very wrong in this part of the world)

Cheers
 
Can anyone help?

The second issue with the annotation tool post SP1 is the most pressing- Are you now able to change the house texture sheets????
