Fences

Postby ivormills » Sun Dec 19, 2004 7:10 am

Hi,

I am trying to put a perimeter fence around a scenery I am bulding for CFS1, using Airport 2.60 Win98.

I have tried a few of the macros available but always get the same problem, the fence dissapears at certain angles then only appears in sections at a time as you approach then dissapears etc.

Any help would be much appreciated

The problem may be a display problem from the use of transparent parts/textures to give the effect of a screen mesh. Try creating your own fence as a .bgl Using Abacus Airport and Scenery creator or Gmax. Failing that try, adding the fence macro with FSSC as a .bgl produced, after everything inside the enclosure has been produced as another .bgl . Got objects outside the enclosure? Produce them as a third .bgl. This may help solve some of the transparency dropout.

Hi Glitch,

Thanks for your reply, it sounds to me as if you know my exact problem! Yes they are wire fences with transparency. I will give your instructions a try and let you know how I get on.

Many Thanks
