Hi, if you exchange the terrain, you need to align your data to the new terrain. for this, CE has some align tools. a screenshot would help me to understand what type of data you have and how the terrain looks. let me know .. matt ... View more

Hi. Please start here and watch the first videos .. They explain most things you need to start: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/52242-Learning-CityEngine-Tutorials-and-other-Training Good luck and let me know if I can help further. Matt ... View more

hey .. you're leaving the border shapes away this way and only select inside. offset(rand(BlgOffsetMin, BlgOffsetMax), inside) the code you have is the short form of : offset(rand(BlgOffsetMin, BlgOffsetMax)) comp(f) {inside: DoSomething. | all : NIL } so you have 2 options: ugly: duplicate the shape with the 2 short selectors: Rule -->     offset(rand(BlgOffsetMin, BlgOffsetMax), inside)     offset(rand(BlgOffsetMin, BlgOffsetMax), border) or just go for the comp(f) {} ok ? matt ...

hi .. both the dem ( elevation map ) and the satellite picture must be 1 image each. tiles are not supported. this did not change in 2014. make sure you also read this thread: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/54072-textures-raster-files-concepts-in-CityEngine-ArcGIS ok ? Matt ... View more

Hi ! I assume you mean how to remove the trees in the code, right ? matt ... View more

hi .. are you importing into a georeferenced dataset ? please check the point position of 1 vertex in the Inspector. if it's 'near the cartesian origin', import it in a new scene, then move it to the centroid of your georeferenced scene, save the cej. Then open your scene with the georeffed data and import the cej you just saved into the scene. ok ? m. ... View more

Hi, As far as I understand, CityGML is a data format itself. I recommend to use GDB, then bring this over to CityGML. Note that the 3DCIM (ArcGIS for 3d cities, http://www.arcgis.com/home/group.html?owner=ArcGISTeam3DCities&title=ArcGIS%20for%203D%20Cities) will provide tools to losslessly port data between the 3DCIM and CityGML for the most important feature classes. But I'm not sure if this is still in development. But that'll be the way we go for. Anyway, GDB is the way to go. I hope that input helps. ... View more

hi .. what do you mean by this concisely ? how do i make my already created scene be draped over the imported terrain ... View more

Hi, okay. for CityEngine terrains, the extents of the elevation map and texture map must match. Thus, I assume this is also true if you create WebScenes from ArcScene. please keep an eye on this and let me know if you have more issues. matt ... View more

hi .. hmm. I'm not sure what precisely this is.. can you post the cej file with just these 3 shapes and the texture in a zip file ? lemme know.. ... View more

Maybe try different materials. The other way - which we are reimplementing currently and worked in 2012, but had to remove temporarily due to time constraints - would be to use attribution per created polygon. But as said, that's not in CE 2014.0 and shall be included again in 2014.1 most probably ! How many 'things' do you need to distinguish ? Maybe I have other inputs. matt ... View more
