Hi,I've tried to use comma-separated seasonal textures list directly into a VTP texture list entry but it failed. I've checked the BGL generated against the MS SDK documentation and could not see where the problem was. If I create a texture file with exactly the same name as the comma-separeted list, it is used, so I suspect this feature was anticipated and documented but eventually didn't make it into FS9.Anyone succeeded to do that ?Too bad, since it would allow local use of seasonal lines and polys without modifying terrain.cfg.Thank you for any feedback you might have.Arnaud Clere

Hello Arnaud,I think there is something wrong with the sintax that you are using or I did not understand the problem. Here is a texture list command in SCASM:VTPTextureList( 2 "riospt2.bmp;riospt2.bmp;riospt2.bmp;riospt2.bmp;riospt2.bmp;riospt2.bmp" 1 0 0 4 "riospt1.bmp;riospt1.bmp;riospt1.bmp;riospt1.bmp;riospt1.bmp;riospt1.bmp" 1 0 0 4 )I am sure others can give you an example for BGLComp.Regards, Luisedited: well I am using the same texture for all the seasons but I will bet it works if the etxtures are different from each other

Hi Arnaud,I believe Luis is right about the syntax. You mention "comma-separated" but it's indeed semicolons you need to use.

Hi Arnaud.The problem is in the SDK. As the others have pointed out, the names are separated by semicolons ( ; ), not commas.Dick

I should have guessed: Never trust the documentation... I wasn't sure which bgl to decompile and look at so, thank you very much !Bye
