6 Sided Landable Surface

Postby Dornep » Tue Sep 21, 2004 10:25 pm

Im making an elevated radar out post with a runway and heli-pad. I have no clue however, how to get the vertex information i need to make the landable surface.
If anyone could give me a few pointers it would great.

Thanks.

That's looking especially good, Xany!

For the longest time (all through FS2002;)) Gmax wouldn't create a landable surface, but I think MS finally got around to fixing that.

Go look for the FS SDKs, which will tell you all about the abilities of Gmax and its applications to scenery.  Particularly the Scenery and the Gmax SDKs, if you can find them.

The link is in my signature below this message.

Good luck!
