Scenery Design Beginner!

[Grover2005]

Hello: Well, I finally have some time on my hands and would like to take the first steps in learning scenery design for MSFS. Nothing fancy, maybe starting with adding some simple elements to a local airport, etc. Is there a beginner, idiot proof, senior proof tutorial that would start me off at the very beginning and guide me through the very basics? I would be thrilled just to learn how to place a hangar at an airport! Thanks for the assistance!

I dabbled a bit myself, but found I didn't have the time to really commit to it - that's what a toddler and a newborn does to a man's free time.

Have a look at ADE fromscruffyduck software. It's a bit easier to use than the SDK

But does it work with MSFS 2020?

Gotta link?, I can only find a version for FS9, FSX AND P3D

Hey there!

I learned to create scenery with the videos of Flying Theston on Youtube. He explains everything you need to know about SDK in his series. You can create scenery yourself after three videos. I highly recommend his tutorials.
Here is the first video of the series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K0XhAf0WYw

The same here: the videos of Flying Theston on Youtube are great.
