hand painted airport aerial photo

Featured Replies

Hi GuysI have searched for some tutorials on the best way to take a hand painted aerial photo of an airport and lay it down in my scenery project.I look at scenery's done by fly Tampa and wonder how they got such a high resolution ground texture aligned so perfectly! I have been trying with ground2k however its saying my resolution is too high.Any tips & trick would be appreciated, and if there is a tutorial out there I have missed please post a link.Thanks & Regards, TED320

Hi,If you want to place high resolution images, using Ground2k is not a very good choice indeed. The mesh techniques (resample, VTP) has a limited resolution of about 4.8 meter per pixel.So I think it is easier to place the high resolution image with a tool like GMax. You can then make a grid for the image and apply the textures. With a little tweaking of the generated BGL file, you can make really good looking ground polygons that way.

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