Hi All,
I've done a lot of dredging of the forums and wiki and can't find much that seems recent that isn't specifically about adding buildings / OSM data so excuse me if it's a covered topic but I couldn't find it.
Here's what I'd really like to achieve: right now I'm not bothered about buildings, roads, railway lines or anything like that. I REALLY want to see nice coastlines and rivers in FG. Smooth edged lakes and raggedy cliffs.
For me it's the one element which seems to draw my eye more than anything. Buildings and roads are wonderful and I know lots of people like them but it's not my goal right now, I want to be able to look at my local coastline and see smooth beaches and transitions into the water.
Would anyone be willing to share with me a specific workflow that currently works for generating tiles with this data in it, and suitable sources for the UK?
Once I've got that far I'd like to build on it and share back with the FG community in terms of files, updating wiki posts and things like that to help others but so far every attempt I've ever made at getting scenery generated and failed -but I'm ready to give it another go.
I have a powerful machine running Arch Linux, and also a Windows laptop so happy to give either OS a try depending on which is going to be easier to master first.
Many thanks in advance!
