I've uploaded a new version of AFS2 Grid Generator:

v1.3 changelog:

- Add support of vegetation files "mapt_*.ttc"

- Add Geoconvert boundaries coordinates into general grid information

In order to help creation of .tmc file, for each square you will have [Lonlat_min] & [Lonlat_max] informations (to avoid creation of no desired tiles at borders: min value are rounded to 2 digits upper value and max value are rounded to 2 digits lower values)

AFS2 Grid generator 1.3

Thanks. Hmmm...interesting. Did you scan the whole folder vegetation? This is the only one with tree information. I cannot scan the whole folder as your tool does not scan mapt files. I copied the files that cover Switzerland into an own folder, deleted the t from the file name (mapt --> map) and made a scan. As I said there are no trees missing in the switzerland scenery, hence the files are complete. Can you please tell me what file names you have where my files in the kmz are missing.

As you can see I have 8480_a640 and 8500_a640. What is in between?

between your two tiles in your screenshots:

84c0_a640

Steam Games\steamapps\common\Aerofly FS 2 Flight Simulator\scenery\vegetation\mapt_10_84c0_a640.ttc

Strange but at home, I have all "mapt" tiles for Swiss DLC.

You must have a leak somewhere May be you have to dowload swiss DLC and install it from scratch again...

!?...... teasing

Interresting 🤔 i will have a look too

Sorry not at home... but i will think about support more prefix for a next release Tom 😉

Great document for all developpers here. Thank you so much Antoine !

Interesting infos but could you please tell us what is the default mesh resolution in AFS2 ? When I mean default I mean outside the special areas (ie. not the US West Coast nor area with addon) and thus anywhere in the globe.

Apparently the used elevation data are not the SRTM 1' (30 meters) or even the SRTM 3' (90 meters). I don't think the last one takes too much size, at least by download, but on DVD it's another story off course...

- default whole world about 150 meter/pixel -> Level 7

- USA DLC about 20 meter/pixel -> Level 10

- Swiss DLC about 10 meter/pixel -> Level 11

Mille fois merci Vogel pour ton lien. Je vais analyser celà en détail.

Sinon, je voudrais avoir des fichiers .spc qui traitent séparément les objets. exemple un fichierbuilgings.spc, fichierarbres.spc, fichierforet.spc etc ...

j'ai regardé ton dossier 'martinique' et j'ai vu que tu as fait comme ça: commercial_buildings.toc; industriel,

végétation, lumière etc.

Tu ne voudrais pas me donner tes fichiers, afin que j'analyse et que j'apprenne ainsi plus facilement. merci

Pas de problèmes, je t’envoie cela dès que je rentre à la maison (dimanche).

About vegetation:

Look at here

Désolé mais malheureusement ce n’est pas possible si tu ne disposes pas des sources. En théorie, il faudrait pouvoir décompiler les fichiers BGL de fsx pour en extraire le Mesh sans compter tout le boulot ensuite pour rendre ces fichiers digérable par geoconverter... bref, c’est pour l’instAnt mission quasi impossible.

Great work Thomas ! I'm so pleased to see someone working on this airport

awesome work guys !

I don't know if it's could be useful, but is it possible to do something in Aerofly with that ?

may be have a look here:

I could be wrong too but unfortunately no, in geoconverter transparency is managed only in ON / OFF mode ... no smooth transition or gradual attenuation possible. For masks, it's white (255) or black (0).

that is why it is all the more necessary to work on imagery (especially on the coastal areas) and to take care of transition between |Imagerie sea<> IPACS sea| in another software before running in geoconverter.

Personnaly, in my last work, I use Trespassers Sea Color RGB: 0-11-24 that fits perfectly to the default IPACS's imagery in Antilles area.

I think that RGB sea color depends mainly on the water color of the images used by IPACS in the area concerned by your work.

Quote from Trespassers

Non la dénomination est trompeuse, mais [lonlat_min] = coin NW, et [lonlat_max] = coin SE...

A+

Antoine

... comme quoi j'en apprend tous les jours... Je ne sais pas comment j'ai réussi à m'en sortir jusque là

<[vector2_float64] [lonlat_min] [9.140625 42.81017101]>

<[vector2_float64] [lonlat_max] [9.84375 42.29984498]>

correspond à

<[vector2_float64] [lonlat_min] [Longitude Min Latitude Min]>

<[vector2_float64] [lonlat_max] [Longitude Max Latitude Max]>

Je peux me tromper mais Je suis donc un peu étonné, n'y aurait il pas inversion des coordonnées de Latitude ? Ce qui donnerait:

<[vector2_float64] [lonlat_min] [9.140625 42.29984498]>

<[vector2_float64] [lonlat_max] [9.84375 42.81017101]>

Désolé, cette question ne concerne pas AeroScenery mais ...

j'ai constaté sur mes images côtières effectuées en 1 Tuile Level 9 -Large, Zoom 17 et Generate AFS levels 9,11,12,13,14 ...

la mer "monte" sur le relief côtier ce qui est simplement "affreux" ! ceci visible bien évidemment en survol très basse altitude environ 500 pieds.

Y aurait-il quelque chose à faire ? ... j'en doute.

Bonjour,

Je pense que cela est du à la basse définition des données d’élévation par rapport à la résolution photo mais je peux me tromper. La solution consisterai à générer les dalles d’élévation d'une résolution supérieur, mais là... ce n'est malheureusement pour l'instant pas possible avec AeroScenery et donc sans mettre les mains dans le cambouis

Pour la Corse, en attendant la mise à disposition hypothétique en open data d'un MNT du littoral Corse par le Shom/IGN avec leur excellent produit Litto3D, des solution permettents déjà d'obtenir un relief d'une bonne résolution grâce au programme Européen Copernicus : https://land.copernicus.eu/imagery-in-sit…u-dem-v1.1/view.

not sure to understand well what you need, but you could generate a Level9 grid in kml format with AFS2 grid generator https://flight-sim.org/filebase/index…grid-generator/

And Look at it in Google earth, you will find easily name and area if you follow Ipacs namming logic... this Rodeo post could help here : Scenery Loading Distance

WoW ! So Quick, So Great !

I'd prefer to keep focus on OpenStreetMap. There are tools to convert a shapefile to the OSM format:

• https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Software_…ort_a_shapefile
• https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Shp2osm

thanks for the answer 😉
