June 11, 200718 yr Hi there,I know absolutely nothing about scenery design, but have been flying in FS for years. I was just wondering whether it is possible to 'create' and island.Lady Elliot island ( http://www.ladyelliot.com.au/Default.asp ) is a very small island at the very south end of the Great Barrier Reef. As you can see from the website, it has a runway through the middle. THis island is not in FS (too small I presume). I vsisted the island last summer, and would like to fly there in FS. Is it possible to make the island for FS? Or isn't it possible to add landmass? Sorry, it's just I have no idea about the capabilities of scenery design.Regards,Dan
June 12, 200718 yr Author Hello Dan,Welcome to the world of scenery design. It is very much possible to add land masses, and even islands.But, is this for FS X or FS 9? The techniques are somewhat different, but not difficult by any means.To create terrain for FS X, please see:Terrain Design for Flight Simulator Xin the Avsim libary:http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fsxsd&DLID=100997Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.Good luck with your project.Best regards.Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!
June 12, 200718 yr Thanks for the welcome!The scenery would be for FS9. I don't know how that alters things.Thanks for your responseRegards,Dan
June 12, 200718 yr Author No problem, Dan, it could be even easier.Please try SBuilder for FS 9, also in the Avsim library:http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?&DLID=66657and don't forget the accompanying library object pack:http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?&DLID=69398They should get you started.
