Fraid postings like yours, Hyperion, never get much of a response because designers are always too busy with their own ideas and projects

But that's why people like YOU get involved in scenery design! We all have no experience to start off with and our first efforts are nearly always pretty lamentable by the standards of the 'real' designers, but it's amazing how quickly you progress once you get the hang of the basics. And there's always loads of guys ready to give help and advice on this and other forums who'd make you very welcome.

Here's a shape I made using EOD (easy object designer) - it's 'round' but it could easily have been egg-shaped by pulling the coords of one side out a bit. And you do it all visually so you can't make mistakes.



So how about it?

Give it a go

Great stuff.

Get eod from Matt Bruchner here

http://www.echos.ch/eod/

You can create virtually any object you want using it, including walls, buildings, towers, trees, vehicles - you name it. Don't forget that FS2002 comes with a bunch of textures in its ..FS2002\TEXTURES folder which you can use for all sorts. Plus, if you've downloaded much scenery etc from third parties, that's also available for you to use before you start thinking about making your own (that comes later).

You'll also need a scenery program to let you place objects in the 'real' world. The one we all seem to prefer here is FSSC (Flight Simulator Scenery Creator) by Derek Leung. Get that here

FSSC contains lots of goodies to help you design sceneries, including all you need to make runways and taxiways, 'kits' you can assemble easily to make buildings to your own design, objects like hangars, vehicles, windsocks etc etc etc. Too much to list.

Both progs are Freeware and you'll be amazed just how much you can achieve by spending nothing more than time.

Good luck - keep us posted. We will always lend you a hand. I guarantee you will enjoy it once you've made your first scenery - and you'll probably become hooked like the rest of us!
