SceneryDesign.org When you want to process bigger quantities of data with scenProc the graphical user interface is not always the easiest way to do this. In that case it is much easier if you can call scenProc from a script, for example a batch file. This is already possible for a while, but yesterday I have […]
I need 6 seasons!
I guess you learned at school that there are 4 seasons in each year. But when you start making scenery for Flight Simulator you will see that FS actually has 5 seasons. Besides the usual seasons spring, summer, autumn and winter, FS also has a heavy winter season. This means winter with snow actually. So […]
Placing effects
Although the scenProc tool is mainly used to create autogen files, it is also capable to produce BGL files using BGLComp. A processing step to place library objects this way has been available for quite a while. Today I have added another step that uses the BGLComp exporter, it can be used to place effect […]
FSDeveloper fully operational again
Maybe you have noticed already, but the FSDeveloper website is fully operational again. The fsdeveloper.com domain has been unblocked again, so everything is working as it was before. The fsdeveloper.org domain that we registered as a fallback will remain active as well. As you probably guessed already we were not happy with the support of […]
FSDeveloper DNS work around
To work around the DNS problems of the FSDeveloper.com domain, we have registered another domain. So until the issues with FSDeveloper.com have been solved, you can use FSDeveloper.org to reach the FSDeveloper community. We have also updated the settings of TapaTalk, so for those of you using that app on their smartphone or tablet, you […]
OGR power!
For the new scenProc feature to detect features from imagery I started to use the GDAL/OGR libraries. But since the OGR library supports reading many vector formats, I have now also add a new step that allows you to read in data through this library. It is called IMPORTOGR. The attributes are the same as […]
Vegetation detection tutorial
Here is the video tutorial I promised about the new scenProc feature to detect vegetation. In this tutorial I show how this new feature works and I also try to explain some of the theory behind it. I’ll try to add some information about this feature to the manual soon as well, as I know […]
FSDeveloper DNS problem
As already indicated in my post yesterday there is a problem with the FSDeveloper website. The DNS is not working correctly. We are working with the domain registrar to get everything working again, but since Christmas is approaching quickly now I don’t expect an answer from their support anymore before Christmas. So that means it […]
FSDeveloper offline
As you have maybe already noticed the FSDeveloper website is currently not accessible. The problem has nothing to do with the server, but for some administrative reasons the domain has been put on hold. We are working hard to reverse this and hope that the site is available again soon. If you want to keep […]
Detect vegetation from imagery
In the last months I often wrote about my progress of adding a feature to scenProc to detect features from imagery. My main purpose was to detect vegetation. I have now finished this feature and put it in the scenProc development release. Be aware that adding this feature meant I had to add the GDAL […]
