A question about removing terrain and adding water in p...

Does anyone know how I can remove flat islands in the water and then fill these particular areas back in with water textures?Thanks for any suggestions.:-) Cheers,Mark.

Sure, Mark, but do you mean FS 9 or FS X?For FS 9, simply draw a Water Mask over the island (and this should also work with FS X that is supposed to be compatible with previous techniques, but I haven't checked yet.)For FS X, things are a little more complex, but not more difficult. You can exclude the entire Hydro Polygon and draw it again.In FS X, also, there are problems with the water having terrain spikes that display as rock. If this is your problem, Dick Ludowise and I will release a fix shortly.Best regards.Luis

Do I need a special program to do this? If you could point me in the right direction, that would be most appreciated.:-) Cheers, Mark.
