AFCAD2 and parking spots on grass...

[Gridley 257]

Is there a way to texture taxiways or a polygon as grass to create off-pavement parking where the plane won't bounce all over the place while taxiing?Thanks for any tips!sg

You could probably add a small fs2002 style invisible ground polygon with surface hardening. Visit http://www.airportforwindows.com/ , download and install AFW, and make a polygon with invisible texture and ensure the hardened surface is selected.Otherwise, visit http://www.scenerydesign.org/ for bumpy. However, I don't think it will do what you want unless it has been updated.W. Sieffert

No, I think the bumping is a property of the grass (I like that btw, grass should not be smooth). Maybe you can use the old Fs2002 technique of defining that area as smooth, but I have not tried if that works with AFCAD scenery.

Thanks for the input - It's not so much the bumpy that I mind (i do kind of find it realistic), its just that certain aircraft have a number of sounds associated with the bumping like tire screetching, etc. which can be quite annoying on length taxiing...I was hoping that it wasn't just an on/off switch, but maybe there were degrees of bumpiness.Thanks again,sg

I have never heard that you can set the level of bumpyness, so I think it is on or off.
