• 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.

Hi,

Can you explain what you what? More buildings than what? It also depends on tge area if the osm data contains a lot of buildings or not.

Can't help you with the TOC files, somebody with more AF2 experience hopefully can.

Still don't understand your problem with the buildings. Did you check if the osm data of your area contains them?

sorry i thought you were the gut who designed the scenproc program for aeroflyfs2 my apologies i gave up on the OSM stuff i gues i will have to do with the minimal footprints for USA .
I wonder could you point me in the right direction to someone who knows how to add multiple.TOC files to the tmc as shown in above 11s.txt
kind regards,

Yes, I designed scenProc so I know everything of the tool. But I'm not an expert on AF2 scenery creation. The tool was originally made for FSX and P3D. AF2 support was added later.

For most parts of the US there are indeed not too many footprints in the OSM data. So you would have to try to find other sources of vector data in that case.

Maybe you can ask on the AF2 forum for the TOC files? Most experts on making scenery for AF2 are found there. Although they sometimes also visit here.

Oh, it's pretty easy... You just have to scroll down on the page and then you will find a table with the download links for each state of the US...
You can download them and you will find a geojson, which you can open with the Data Interopatibility Tool provided by ArcGIS or QGIS or whatever GIS-Software you have!
