Hello,I've taken a two years break from fsx and fully dedicated to x-plane9 to the point where I made my own photoreal sceneries of the italian and UK countries.For as much as I enjoyed x-plane9 I was toying with the idea of getting back into fsx and was wondering how feasible it would be toconvert, or adapt my x-plane photoreal sceneries to work in fsx. Ideally, as the sceneries weight 150Gb, I'd like to keep the current tiles as they are so that I could use the same sceneries on both simulators.Some details about the sceneries:My photosceneries have been created with a program called g2xpl that creates 1x1 degrees set of ortophotos in .dds format.I've got hundreds of folders each one with hundreds of tiles and .ter and .dsf files telling x-plane what to do with them. I've also created a night version of the same textures (still .dds but in a textures_LIT folder) using a program I created called simulnight.I'm aware of FS2XPLANE that converts sceneries to x-plane. I can also access the x-plane .dsf files by converting them into text files.Lastly I can code python programs pretty easily so I could filter and use these text files myself to batch create new .bgl files if needed.I'm just worried there might be something fundamentally wrong with my idea, for instance I'm assuming x-plane sceneries and fsx sceneries both use the same world coordinate system?Also I'm a fsx scenery newbye so I wouldn't even know if the bgl is flat or if it carries the 3d mesh data with it.I wonder if it makes sense to you or I've completely gone nuts! :)Let me know your thougths please!THanks a lotLuca

Hi,I don't think that is easy. FSX stores the textures of photoscenery inside the BGL file. So if you want to put it in FSX you would have to compile the images you have into a BGL file using the resample tool from the SDK.

hmm thanks for the heads up, I wrongly assumed it was possible for .bgl to read external .dds files :)
