Confounding land class problem!?

[Gridley 257]

I'm using Russel Dirks' EZ-landclass at the moment for my new england and florida keys sceneries, but I've run into three stubborn tiles:This one is from the florida keys:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/103513.jpgAnd here's one from the south shore of Massachusetts:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/103514.jpgThe problem is that they are either entirely textured, or entirely empty, rather than filling the area behind the shores as they should. I have played with many (if not all) combinations of adjacent tiles with no effect beyond this on/off result.Figured I'd ask the experts! Is this a polygon problem, or a landclass problem? Also, I've been putting my LC files in the same folder with the rest of the scenery - would layering the polygon/vtp scenery above the LC be beneficial in this regard, or in general?Thanks!sg

Hello Scott,the thread http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...24916&mode=full (Sorry guys - More Ground2K help please) might give you a solution: You should surround your new islands with a large water LWM-polygon.Cheers,Edgar

Thanks, Edgar - I'll look into that.With respect to the second shot, which is a peninsula rather than an island, I would think a water LWM polygon which matched the peninsula and the edges of the LOD13 cell would suffice, no?Thanks,sg

Hi Scott.Yes. you just need an LWM water poly to mask away the unwanted landclass to water. LWM = Land-Water mask.Dick

Thanks for the input - I'm just curious why they weren't there to start with - this is all slarti output, and is perfect otherwise...c'est le sim!Best,sg
