Scenery design PROBLEM!!!!!!

Postby PlutonianEmpire » Fri Sep 22, 2006 3:27 pm

I'm working on a scenery i made for fs9, using Airport for Windows 2.60 and Rwy12. The problem? the polygon's are covering the airport i made with AFCAD. It's extremely frustrating. How do i get the afcad airport to show through the "airport for windows 2.60" polygons?

Can anyone please help me?

Providing everything else is correct in the afcad, it may just be a matter of elevation. Try raising the afcad elevations (reference point and runways).

Make sure your entering the correct units, meters or feet.

Nope, didn't work. all I got was mid-air levitation over nothingness, 10 feet above the northern ice cap (the whole scenery is at 0.0 MSL) I think I'll switch to SBuilder instead for ground textures/polygons and see if that works.

Now, another problem that has been running concurrent with the polygon problem: the roads (made with airport 2.60) won't show up.

the polygon's are covering the airport i made with AFCAD.

I don't like Airport's polygons, i use AFKAD's apron poly's, they always work for me. I only use Airport for placing macros and roads. As for your road problem, try playing with the layer level, detail level and visibility.
