Hi guys,

I'been flying with Fs for years now. I am always looking up for new airport scenery, but now i decided i want to make my own.
what program can I use to build a new airport? I have used Afcad 2 to design the taxiways, but when i opened the airport(EHLE) some trees and house blocked the new taxiways, how can I remove them? I downloaded gmax, but i dont know how to convert .gmax files into .bgl files. I also would like to know how to design a full functional airplane for fs2004.

thnx

Welcome Maxx,

Can't help with aircraft design but for your airport scenery design I suggest SBuilder.

It has tools for nearly every aspect of scenery design. Though it appears a little intimidating at first, it's GUI and toolbar make it quite easy to use.

Scenery.org has a section of tutorials on using SBuilder's many tools. Also a tutorial on installing SBuilder and updates to have the latest version. You'll also find a section of GMax tutorials that may help you.

Check out the SBuilder forums. Also  SbBuilder updates for the updates needed to provide the latest version-V2.06.
