September 26, 200619 yr Just thought I would post a little update, comparing the same area (South West Rocks, NSW, Australia) in default FSX and with my update.Don't be too critical :) There are many issues I need to fix, eg adding islands to rivers, more accurate landclass, roads etc.Im just using this area (near my home town) to test my KML (Google Earth) to FSX scenery util.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/157171.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/157172.jpg
September 26, 200619 yr It looks very good. You will make a lot of people happy if you decide to release your utility.Best regards.Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!
September 26, 200619 yr I probably will, as freeware (for non commercial use) :) Maybe in a week or so I will upload a beta to this forum.Also, apparently in FSX landclass/waterclass/population density/seasons etc can be specified using GEOTiff files. So Im hoping I can get it creating these types of BGLs also. I guess the way it would work is by letting the user paint polygons in GE and then I would need to generate a GeoTIFF file from those polygons then feed it to resample.exe
September 30, 200619 yr I have started a manual over at the www.fsdeveloper.com Wiki.You can find the manual here:-http://www.fsdeveloper.com/scenery/wiki/do...manuals:fsx_kml
October 1, 200619 yr Oops wrong link... here's the correct onehttp://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=FSX_KML
October 4, 200619 yr Dear JuiceRabbit:The landclass polygons for cities or forest generate autogen above it?This landclass polygons doesn't have the problems in lwm polygon with grids in FS9 scenery?Thanks.
October 12, 200619 yr Yes landclass polygons generate autogen and it looks really good :)Will try and release the alpha over the weekend. Getting close to finished now.
