Help creating a mountain/hill

Featured Replies

Hello! I have recently been souping up the Killeen, TX airport (KGRK) and trying to make it look like what it looks like in real life (it is empty on FS).And anyways, in real life there in a large hill that is right next to the airport and on the game it is all flat around the airport. Can you please tell me how to create a simple hill or give me links that can get me started?Thanks! grin.gif Btw, my OS is Vista (if that means anything) and I am trying to create this hill for FS2004.

Hi,One way to do this is by adding custom mesh (see tutorial in the MSFS Scenery Design Forum - not trivial).I needed the practice, so I created mesh for a small area around killeen, including the airport. See the text file for the exact boundaries. It was created from 1/3 arcsec (30m) NED source data and Resampled with an LOD of 10. You can download it here:http://home.earthlink.net/~smgreenwood/downloads/killeen.zipGood luck, Steve

reminder:You need to set the "TMVL" value to 21 in your FS9.cfg file in order to see high resolution mesh![TERRAIN]TERRAIN_MAX_VERTEX_LEVEL=21Steve
