Adding Taxilines??

Recommended Posts

Guest GabrielR

Hi, what is the best tool to add taxi line markings on top of an existing (defult) apron?I did them with Gmax, not a lot of succes, given the fact that in order to mantain the resolution I would have to use DTX1 w/alpha textures with very high resolution.Tried with the Taximarkings SDK... no succes, if somebody nows how to do it that way, any help will be appreciated.

Both FSSC and Airport support drawing the taximarking commands from the SDK, so I think one of those two tools is the best option to use.Arno

Thanks... I just DL FSSC and read trough the tutorials and managed to solve one of my big time problems. adding taxi marks over an existing apron...I also need to draw lines over the apron, different to the taxiway lines those that serve to mark the security areas for the services vehicles etc. I use the object line give a width of .3m, choose a color and draw the line, but in FS the line always appear white, no matter what color I choose, how can I set lines in different colors?Thanks

Colored lines don't seem to work anymore in Fs2002, they always appear white. So you can best make a small texture with the color you want and use that on the line.
