• 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.

FS2004 Smooth Flatten/Terrain - How to?

Hey there,

I came across a problem that I have no idea about to solve...
I'm using a quite big Groundpolygon in my scene which comes a long with a big area to apply a flatten to.
The problem is that the terrain isn't smooth at the edges of the flatten-area.
Is there any chance of fixing this problem?
I know, there is one.
But I don't know which program to use and...how to.
I would be very pleased about any kind approach :)

Best regards!

Hi,

I think the best solution is to try to use a smaller flatten if possible. Else you might try to have multiple flattens to make a more smooth transition.
 
Hey arno,
thanks for your reply!

I thought about multiple flattens, too and tried it with SBuilder.
But defining some flatten-layers and then generating a flatten-bgl didn't work.
I'll post a screenshot of that setup-later.
Or what is the best way to define mutliple flattens?

Doing a smaller flatten is not a solution for me.
The thing is that the terrain itself is quite uneven itself...
(Mountains in the South, Flatland in the north)
 
SBuilder kind of makes a smooth transition, at least it did on my machine. Mind you that mesh is highly dependant on the end users settings tough.
