und ganz frisch lackiert

would you like them less perfect?

A bit of roughing up is always nice... we'd have to impose on Antoine again though

Currently these water towers all share the same raw silver texture.

If you create a new texture using the same mapping then you just convert it and overwrite the current one, just like for any repaint. No need for Antoine.

If objects need a different mapping, then they must be reimported in 3DSmax and recompiled.

In case you want to reimport towers, or add further objects in the xref library, the most convenient format for importing objects into 3DSMax is the wavefront .OBJ format with .bmp textures, with explicit namings following IPACS conventions.

For instance, Tee_40 is not an explicit name to me for an xref object ; water_tower_tee_40 is more explicit for an object.

You can easily convert/rename textures and generate .obj files using MCX in order to get the desired input format for 3DSMax.

BTW if anyone has AC3D, you can also try importing objects and generating an xref library. There are good chances that it works too.

Cheers

Antoine, unluckily the texture has to be resized in case of concrete, so that replacing the ttx only does not show the desired result.

So I will rework the models with that texture.

Hello Phil,

Have you made any changes?

Wanted to create a none ICAO airport but impossible to save/ upload it:

Get these two warnings resp. error messages:

I'd like to get an account on FSCloudPort Phil but you cannot be reached. you have too many conversations going on.

Can you help me?

Hello Phil,

Are there any news resp. can you fix the issue?

I tried it yesterday unfortunately without success. Editing, however, works without problems.

I would like to add three missing airfields for my project Vancouver BC area. May I send you otherwise exceptionally the *.tsc base-data so that you can manually integrate them into the database and I will edit them afterwards?

Kind regards,

Christophe

Thanks Phil - works fine again for me!

Cheers,

Christophe

Hello,

Cannot access to the objects properties anymore in fscloudport : can create a runway, add a tower or a house but cannot choose which tower, which house, etc.

Is this a known issue I could fix ?

Kind regards

Jean-Paul

Hello Jean-Paul,

For me, it still works very well. I have tried it both, with a new and an older airport.

I'm still able to change the tower model and choose different objects models resp. to change it.

Have you tried it with different Browsers? Maybe a firewall- resp. security- setting?

Best regards,

Christophe

Thanks for your answer,

Yes tried with 3 browsers before asking : don't understand, never had such problems (Adblock and Ghostery are not activated). Maybe the last W10 update ?

Curious to see how cloud port works to submit airports. I've requested access. I was looking at AC3D but that looks like a huge learning curve, even with the tutorial samples.

AC3D is pretty easy to use, Rodeo has some great video tutorials on how to create airports in AC3D, if you follow the tutorials you’ll get good results. There are also a couple of tutorials from other members on doing crossing runways, and one on adding taxiways. Can’t remember at the moment who did them.

I apologize : So long time I did not use fscloudport that I forgot I had to "hold the click" on the object... I was desperately (conviced) I had to use "right click"

So I looked at the video tutorial and immediately felt ashamed !

Sorry guys and thanks for trying to help the ...... boy I am
