How to create a customized background Image for an airport (FS9)

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

 

I have a existing Airport without a photoreal background. So I wanted to make one by myself. The problem is that I don't know how it works. I tried one with SBuilder but it didn't work for me. Are there any other tools?

 

I want to make a background image which is cutted. Not only a square. It should look like the commercial ones (Aerosoft Mega Airports, Flytampa, etc.)

 

Of course I searched in other forums for help, but I didn't understand it, because my English isn't as good as it should be and I didn't have any experience with GMax, SBuilder, etc.

 

Could it be that the PTSim Website is down? I cannot acess to the main site, and the forums.

 

I use FS9

 

I hope anybody can help me
