Hello, odds are good that one of you knows more than me: Is there any software around, be it free or commercial, that does conversion of grayscale bmp's into fs2002 mesh?any help is greatly admiredFrankwww.jodok.com

Hi Frank.Try Grises50, courtesy of the Scenery Hall of Fame:http://www.scenery.org/_downloads/grises50.zipYou may also want LODCalc, by Richard Marklew, available right here at AVSIM, to help you calculate the required extents of your DEM:http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=...hor=&CatID=RootDick

A useful tool I use to make meshes is FSTerrain by Martin Wright, a pretty user friendly and hassle free tool for creating mesh terrain based on DEM files or greyscale images.http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/index.htmTry it, you won't be dissapointedEDITED: And it's free ;-)--Daniel R. Careri

Thanks for the hints.I mentioned that I might be an idiot: I easily can import grayscale and do all the settings but no .bgl file is written when I push the respective button.What did I overlook this time?regsto all patient readersFrank
