Hi,
While waiting to get the aerial view of KBHM from 1970 to align with other Geo-Reference images, I guess you can call it, I've been working on the ground terrain for the Alabama Mega Scenery Earth around the airport. Unfortunately, I could not find a bitmap and all the images are bgl files. I didn't know if it's possible to convert a blg file to a bitmap so I had to get the image from a top down view screen shot from inside FS and export it into Gimp. What I've done is cloned out everything that did not exist in 1970 and shortened the runways, otherwise they'll show up in the sim. I have it completed and I opened SbuilderX to compile the image. I selected File-Load from disk, and a box pops up saying that I may need to calibrate it, since the image did not come directly from the SbuilderX background image. Now the problem is that I do not know what the 4 coordinate positions are so that I can calibrate it. Is there any way to determine the unknown coordinates of the 4 corners of an image that was modified?
Ken.
