• 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.

Hello guys,

So i have done the terrain for LWSK and i was keen to try it. I did the platform and used Displacement to create it. I checked everything was nice and tidy. But wait, my FS crashes and the scenery doesn't load. Any ideas?

Regards,

Pere Duran
 
Okay, so i figured out that the problem is either MakeMDL or BGLComp. Any suggestions?

Hi,

Maybe you can explain a bit more what you did. You mention making terrain and platforms. Terrain is normally not done with BGLComp or MakeMDL.
 
So i was just following the tutorial on the Wiki to how to make terrain using displacement on Gmax. Is there another way of doing this? Is it SBuilder?

Hi,

I would only use GMax if it was a very small and local thing I wanted to model. To modify the terrain in a bigger region I would use the terrain tools from the SDK.

You can either use the SDK tools directly or use SBuilderX as a user interface.

If all you want is to flatten some area, you can probably also do it from ADE or a similar tool.

So what kind of changes you want to make to the terrain?
 
In theory, i want to give the phtoreal touch (all my textures are made). Also since i was following the guide for making terrain on GMAX so i also got the modified and realistic terrain .png .
