Looking for some help

What do you want to do? Do you want to edit a bgl or bmp? Are you looking to swap a bmp in a bgl. something like a scenery bgl file.

It will depend on what you're wanting to do. Lets start you off in this direction and see if its what you want.

Thats all of Robert John's magazines. If your looking to replace a bmp in a bgl, its in one of the Convert old to new models tutorials, at the bottom of the page.

If your looking to do something from scratch then I'll have to point you in a different direction. The more info you give the better reply we can give.

Let me know if that helps at all.
 
John,

if you make a scenery like an airfield using FSSC (Flight Simulator Scenery Creator) it exports bgl and bmp files to cfs2 (or other filght sims).

Cheers

Agreed. FSSC Is what I use along with Maskrider's Blended scenery tutorial: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=49&id=5785 That will help you generate the texture BMPs for the scenery. Use Martin Wright's GSL tool to make the GSL objecy layouts rather that the macros (which aren't destroyable) in FSSC>
