Is there a way to land on a bridge or park a vehicle on it? I tried to slew a car on to one of the bridges in the New York area, and it's just like the bridge was not there, the vehicle falls into the water. Same goes for a plane landing on a bridge (I tried it with a STOL on the Liberty Bridge near Venice... plenty of room there)  Cheesy

You need to make a hard deck for the bridge ....... the same as for Aircraft carriers.

Like he said in order to land on any object you have to set it up with a hard deck in order to land on them but you could do this if you were building the bridge or building you wanted a helo pad on. But you can not edit existing scenery to do this but you can replace it it with another one that will allow you to do this. 8)

I see... too complicated.
Too bad, I will not be able to take the screenshot I wanted to take.  Cry

It's not that complicated if you want to make your own custom bridge. Just following the SDK's provided by Microsoft and you're good to go. I have a few tutorials on my website that can help you with better understanding the SDKs [follow the link on my sig]. But it's ok if you don't want to get too involved with such development. Remember, it becomes hard if you make it feel like it's hard.
