Changing runway texture

Postby TheEagle » Thu May 27, 2021 5:13 pm

I'm creating a new airport, and want to change the runway texture without using WED - is that possible ?

It depends on what exactly you want to change. If it's the appearance of the runway, this is done using Materials/regions/*.xml, where e.g. it is defined which texture to use for concrete and which for asphalt runways. One possible application of this are the yellow-marked runways in Norway (or used to be, since they started to abandon this special feature)
