Fences 14 types

---------------- Using fence hints


Fences are produced without end posts the idea being to daisy chain them together (easier than putting one
post on top of another). There are individual posts to add where required at the end of a line or if two ends
meet. There are also no-post sections to use if two posts meet. All fences extend below ground so they can be
raised if required (untick the ‘Snap to ground’ in the ‘Properties’ window then adjust ‘Offset to ground’ ).

Procedure
1 Determine heading
Check angle of road (fence line) by placing a long fence section scaled up to match the full length of the fence
line. Adjust the direction (fine tuning by entering adjustments in the ‘Heading’ box). Adjust the height of the
end of the fence by using the ‘Pitch’ (or ‘Bank’ depending on the original design angle of the fence). Leave this
fence section in place to help with alignment of the rest of the fence sections.
OR
Use Google Earth and its ruler to get an angle (adjusted by 90 180 or -90 depending on design angle of the
fence).

2 Adding fence sections


A good idea is to use the ‘Duplicate’ button in the ‘Scenery Editor’ box to copy the ‘1 Determine heading’ fence
section. Adjust the ‘Scale’ back to 1.0. Use the ‘Replace model’ button in the ‘Properties’ box to change the
fence type to what is required for the first piece. Using the ‘Duplicate’ and ‘Replace model’ buttons will save
time placing additional sections. For long fence lines raise view point high up then use the ‘Duplicate’ button to
create new sections and loosely place them ready for the next procedure.

3 Align sections
Place the first section of fence then add second section to the end and adjust from inline then to the side so
they meet. Viewing from the side of the join select the first section and enter a new 'Pitch' (or ‘Bank’ depending
on fence type) value to adjust height to match the second section (determined by the angle of the ground) . If
the ground is very lumpy then shorter sections may be required to stop the fence sinking or being air born at
mid-section. If pitch required is more than about 5 deg then 1 section fences (Pitch 0 deg) may look better (no
match for height possible).

4 Adjust the length (end point) of the fence line to match the scenery
Several ways of doing this.
--For long lengths
-Adjusting the ‘scale’ (entering new values in the scale box is easiest). Best done on the longest sections
or all sections (minimal effect on the height). Pitch (angle) can be readjusted to help match heights.
Height can also be adjusted in the ‘offset to ground’ box
(untick the ‘Snap to ground’ in the ‘Properties’ box).

--For shorter lengths


-Sections can be concertinaed (overlapped). Both sections need to be the same angle (Heading & Pitch)
and scale. Using a no-post section can help and then add a post if required.

HINTS:- this fence has the mesh fixed to one side (as in real life). The mesh from one section has to be
accurately aligned with the next section. All sections must be same scale.
Aligning sections - Start above fence and align 2 sections side to side by moving the second section. Move to
the side about 10m away and adjust the angle of the first section by entering values in the ‘bank’ box so both
sections match vertically .
Adjust length by - small adjustment to scale (all sections) - adding no-post sections – overlapping sections

HINTS:-
The corner posts come with no mesh so use the no post sections as in the example above. Easy way is to
‘Duplicate’ fence-corner-concrete-start-cbj and then ‘Replace model’ to fence-low-mesh-no-post-1s-cbj so
both centers are then in the same place.

This fence has the mesh fixed to one side (as in real life). The mesh from one section has to be accurately
aligned with the next section. All sections must be same scale.

Aligning sections - Start above fence and align 2 sections side to side by moving the second section. Move to
the side about 5m away and adjust the angle of the first section by entering values in the ‘bank’ box so both
sections match vertically . Recheck and adjust side to side.

Adjust length by - small adjustment to scale (all sections) - adding no-post sections – overlapping sections. The
example above shows this with fence-low-mesh-no-post-2m-cbj fence-low-mesh-no-post-1m-cbj
added and over lapped as required. Then adding fence-low-mesh-post-cbj

FLYING GLIDERS (please read)
NOTE:- All flying gliders are available as --- ‘Scenery’ visible 24hrs a day
Or --- ‘SimObject’ visible only in daylight (1 hr after sunrise to 1 hr before sunset)
READ THIS:- ‘SimObject’ gliders have an MSFS bug that causes them to drop back to ground
level when viewed from a distance. This seems to only affect them when they are positioned on
sloping ground. To test for this bug turn on ‘Options > Debug model LODs’ (makes them easy
see). Now go back into the distance and watch the LODs and they will suddenly drop down to
ground level (disappear from high up). If everything is OK they will stay high until the S:0.50
value drops below 0.5 when the model disappears due to small size. Problems or even the
slightest doubt then use ‘Scenery’ version.

Following are flying:- gliders hang-gliders paragliders


NOTE its easy to lose the actual placing of these. Pick your spot on the ground and then raise
them (‘Properties’ box untick ‘Snap to ground’ , enter height in ‘Offset to ground’). Finding
them again for adjustments can be tricky. Try doing Left click drag to check an area of sky OR
by finding them in the ‘Scenery Editor’ window by doing a ‘Search …’ and selecting them there.
Still can’t find them? Then delete them and start again.
Thermal gliders fly in a circle at radius and speed appropriate for the glider type. Several of the
same type can be in the same place by changing the angle so they are on different sides of the
circle. It is possible they may gradually catch up to each other if one skips a video frame or two
so it would be safer to separate them vertically.
Ridge gliders fly in an elongated figure 8 pattern so they should always turn away from the
ridge they are flying in front of (into the wind supplying the lift). The length of the pattern
varies with different gliders (indicated next to the name). The angle to use is the one facing into
the slope. Eg. 0 deg (north) is for a slope facing 180 deg (south). The placement point is roughly
in the middle of the figure 8.

Scale:- scale these and the scale of the path will change as well

These are all ‘SimObject’ (‘object type’ in ‘Object’ box). This menu takes about a minute to load so be patient.
SimObjects cannot be scaled which is why the ‘windy things’ objects with smaller windsocks are included in the
photo. ‘windy things’ is not my library so all credit to trfsto if you use them. This is a small sample of the many
windsocks and flags in this library.

IMPORTANT
All the larger windsocks are based directly on the MSFS stock windsock which will point 180 deg in wrong
direction unless the heading is set to EXACTLY 0. Do this by entering 0 in the heading box.
The windsock at the bottom of the ‘Object type’ list (as opposed to the same one in the SimObjects list) did not
respond to entering 0 for me (because the editor always adds a few numbers to the 0 ie 0.000014).
The solution for this is to edit the ‘Save Scenery’ .xml file .
This is located in your_airport > PackageSources > scen > your_airport_SCN.xml
Save a copy in case you muck it up then open it in Windows notepad. Use the Edit>Find.. menu to locate the
windsock and enter 0 for the heading.

Windsock light

windsock-light-cbj windsock-light-cbj
windsock-orange-cbj

The lights can be seen from a long distance

Hints:-
- Adjusting lights to match windsock.
The lights are already at the correct height. The horizontal position needs to be adjusted. Final adjustments can
be done by observing the direction to move at the top and then moving close the bottom to do them. Entering
the same position in the Lat, Lon boxes does not work because all the figures are not shown there. (you could
edit the .xml).

- Moving windsock and lights


Select both of them by dragging a box using shift + left mouse button
