• 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.

FSXA Something about mesh

Tejal,

You have some advice from Lance at LCSims, a mesh expert.

Fraction bits will compile fractions of meters vertical resolution. This is used for high resolution source data which SRTM is not, so you are oversampling meaning compiling higher resolution than the source data. I doubt you will find any terracing effects without fraction bits, try it and see. Also see that the new mesh file is smaller - better computer performance now.

If you use Legacy_LandWaterMask_Water_noFlatten instead of the flatten water poly you are now using, the water will climb up the beach and up the hill and will not create a cliff. I believe your shoreline is not positioned properly, and you will see this by changing the water poly type to no flatten.

The excellent tutorial listed above at Avsim will answer all your questions.

All right, thanks for the tips, well, I have changed the water class to see, just curiousity,legacy_water_etc. and the water was all over, so is not a solution, about fraction bits problably is right, I have used fraction bits and didn't see any progress, I'll take a look to those tutorials, that is the problem, it's dificult to find information about a specific issue. above all the mesh issue. thanks indeed, regards ::)
