I have decided to attempt to make my own airport and have watched and read all the tutorials by Rodeo. I have made photo scenery and installed it into fs2. This worked perfectly. I then added the simple airport so it shows in the navigation screen. This also worked perfectly.
After this I downloaded trial version of ac3d, 14 days to make my airport!!!!!
I have followed the video tutorials and copied exactly what rodeo states and have imported the background image and orientated and sized it accordingly. Now here comes the problem, I add a mesh and use the settings rodeo gives in the video, the width of my runway is 30 metres so I put in 3000 by 3000 and press size to and it is absolutely massive. The other thing is it doesn't look like the mesh in the video which is half blue at the top and white at the bottom, mine is just one massive square of the same colour????
My question is, am I missing some setting that needs to be enabled in ac3d which creates the mesh like rodeos. I am a complete beginner and starting from scratch and I know that rodeo says in the video's that some working knowledge is required but unfortunately I don't have any (yet).
I am pleased with how far I have got but knew it was going to well.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks Grant.
