Can you zip up the .SBP file for your project and attach it to a post?

Sure, here it is!

I'm trying to exclude trees from the area and put grass layer on the runway. The line is just for marking the true position of the runway. Airport itself is Mänttä Sassi unofficial landing strip.

I have manually created the exclude file and done somewhat succesfully VTP2 poly with Ground2k, but I don't like that software.

Hi Matti.

The default AB files ( Airport backgrounds ) use VTP layer 7 and an "assembled" texture:

1189 Low Sparse Grassland

This will automatically rid the autogen from the airport area, and will eliminate the need for Excludes.

Attached is a zipped file as an example.

The VTP SCASM code looks like this:

Code: Select all

Set( BUF 8192 )

Header( 1 63 62 25 24 )

VTPFileHeader( 0x100 )

:cell00

VTPArea( 1 1 20 15 )
VTPLayer( 7 1 1 0 )
VTPTexID( 0 0 )
VTPPolyCount( 1 )

   VTPPoly( 2 5 0 )
      VTPPointXY( 9252 8653 )
      VTPPointXY( 9144 8678 )
      VTPPointXY( 9025 8704 )
      VTPPointXY( 9019 8696 )
      VTPPointXY( 9246 8644 )


VTPIndexList( 1
        436 79 0
        )

VTPTextureList( 1
        1205 0 0 0 4
        )

VTPEnd
It compiles with SCASM version 2.96 available from http://www.scasm.de/

If this does not compile, then the problem isn't with SBuilder, but lies somehow with either your version of SCASM, or some regional settings problem in Windows.
