Hi all,
seasonal texture switch functionality is obviously not present in FSX.
The only ways seems to either rely on landclass editing and custom autogen definition or asking the user to replace textures by hand (or via an extra application).
On the other hand Orbx, FT & Co. obviously found an automated method to change their custom nature textures. But they probably don't want to share or open their technical solution for others ;-)
In my EDAH FS9 project I used images of the real tree type that is present in that airport. And I would like to keep that option for my FSX EDVK project.
Wouldn't it be possible to develop something like ONE standard module/framework on which many scenery designers could rely on? Maybe free to use for freeware scenery projects and fee-based for commercial project (just like FSUIPC).
Excuse me if it sounds naiv, I can image this would be a complex project and there may be a reason why something like this doesn't yet exists.
But even though I decided to post my thoughts.
And I would support the development $-wise.
Anyone?
Cheers Volker
