How do you make a water polygon (lake or river) follow the terrain?? I think that it used to be -9999 for FS9.

Hi Dick.

This is the path to my SBuilderX "Tools" folder:

C:\Program Files\SBuilderX\Tools

Inside that folder is the 'Polys.txt'

That controls the poly properties in SBuilderX. You'll need to add:

Code: Select all

[Texture.381]
Name=Legacy_LandWaterMask_Water_NoFlatten
Color=FF638AC2
Guid={5835459A-4B8B-41F2-ADC1-DEE721573B28}
Textures=000b2su0.bmp
Type=HPX

I place these lines after the other HPX types to keep them together ( Above the Airport Backgrounds ).

That should give you non-sloping water.

Thanks-Worked! I had avoided the texture stuff but looks like it is a piece of needed knowledge.
