Level mapping questions

[lliaudais 2]

I tried it both ways, and it's still FSAltitude for everything except the nearest tiles. Perhaps there's something in the coding of the FSAltitude tiles that forces it into most LOD's.

If all you guys have is bgl files, you probably can't do anything with it.I don't have it to experiment with but..I read the overview at the website about the "cone" of "no FSAltitude" under the aircraft.and also found this link to a forum post about the producthttp://www.flightdecksolutions.com/forum/v...65ee9aa46672c17with some images (see number 5 specifically).I used the tmfviewer to see what scale matched the default scenery range in his image and found it to be LOD12/QMID14.By comparing that image #5 to an image of mine at the same location with default scenery and TileProxy (in reverse of FS Altitude, so to speak...) I can pretty much confirm that the forum poster's Default zone was like the LOD12 (10m)scenery ring.images at medium range; mapping 10,10,10,10,14 so I could have that final ring stand out.Only you can do the actual experimentation and see if the zone is subject to the FSX scenery range slider. If so, you would have to use that to get a larger TP zone. If the central non-FSAltitude zone is NOT subject to the FSX slider then I guess you are sorta stuck unless they (FSA) allow some sort of adjustment later - or find a manual work-around.The product almost looks like it replaces all (?) the background scenery imagery and just leaves a central 'hole' for the detail scenery but only for the 10m ring and smaller (equivalent to oval 5 and up). It really needs a method to adjust the range!Bummer!Loyd

Hey Loyd, I will try as you suggest, it may have to wait few days, I am grappling with my photoscenery making software( global mapper ) at the moment and suffering from a distinct lack of time to cover all the stuff I have a finger in at the moment, despite sneaking out to my workshop and PC's as soon as I get home from work ( much to the wifes disapproval....) I have been wracking my brains to think how they can "force" the scenery to display like that, without using a separate application or hook...... Basically, their "cone" is too small to suit Tileproxy ideally. I imagine if we could set it to display tile proxy out to say LOD10 and FS altitude beyond, it would save much valuable processing work for Tileproxy...Cheers, Mark

It l;ooks like Global Mapper is made to do the job of creating photo scernery but at $299 per licence, it looks a bit pricey for shareware. Otherwise I might have had a go with it myself.IAN

Wouldn't you be better with SBuilderX?
