Ground Poly Pictures

Featured Replies

Hello All!

 

 

I have been tentatively thinking about trying to create a ground poly for an FSX airport, however I am very new. I realize that it is quite an advanced techique, however so far the only major issue I have is with the textures themselves. How are the pictures/textures to make the layers (especially the base markings) attained or made? Thank you for your help.

Check this link for some help on that: http://iblueyonder.com/ground-poly-tutorial/

That's where I first read, but as far as I can tell it doesn't actually say how to attain the images.

They don't have everything but almost! You can usually get away with the free 15mb a day limit and find some good quality texture sources and inspiration.
