I have spent nearly 6 hours cycling through TMF Viewer, the scenery design tool, google earth and start/stop FSX (to view the result). It has been a total waste of my time BECAUSE I have not been able to work on the scenery/terrain itself due to the time spent getting the right exclusion polygon.
Too little here and it does not fill properly, too much and then a whole huge landmass appears beyond the boundaries. This must be one of the most annoying FSX features.
So... in order for me to get down to the work I want to do I would like to know if there is a tool out there where I can select my QMID area and it would spit out the correct polygon coordinates for the EXCLUSION polygon and avoid those large square landmasses. Something like that would make our scenery design more productive, perhaps I don't know where that tool is so I would like to know.
TMF Viewer only gives you 6 decimal digits for the coordinates and that is not enough usually the trimming is beyond the 6 decimal digit resolution.
