• 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.

Missing features?

I have beta version 1.6 of ADE-GP and I am missing some key features that would be a real help:

1) Arc helper shape for drawing curved GP-lines. WHen i select helper shapes it isn't listed like it is shown in the manual.

2) Creating custom ground lines (make GP line) is not listed when I right click.

3) Lastly, when I select the view tab, GP objects is not on the list.

Todd, are you sure you are using v1.60 when you have these difficulties. All three are an integral part of v1.60 - but none are in 1.50.

Over to you, Jon.

Don

BTW, Todd, that is an old release of 1.60. The current release is 1.60.4932 - but, presumably, it should still have those features. There's a link to the latest version in the second sticky above. Don't forget to also update ADE_GroundPolys.dll.

Arc helpers are certainly present in the current beta - they were likely added after the version you are using.

GP Lines are not made from the Right Click Menu (unless you are referring to creating them from helpers) In any case these were available only for Arcs and if they are not in your version then that option will not appear for you.

The View option for GP objects would have been added later than the version you are using - it is certainly present in the current beta

OK, thanks guys. The bottom of the ADE window says it's up to date but I forgot that doesn't apply to betas.
