GMax for ground polygons

Featured Replies

I was doing some test on using GMax for my groundpolygons, but while doing that I discovered that the frames are lower then when I use the SCASM version I made before.I have the polygons in a DXF file and I imported that into GMax. After exporting it to the ASM files, I edited the source to have the shadows displayed correct.But when I loaded this file in Fs2002 I noticed that I had lost 4 frames (22 to 18) and I hadn't even added all the polygons that were in the SCASM file (the one that gave 22 frames).So, I think that using GMax for the ground polygons of a big airport is not a good choice, as you can get better frames by splitting the polygons in different Area's and thereby controlling the visibility better.Arno

If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done.
