Each shape-file corresponds with one of the material types defined in the materials.xml files. The mapping is pretty obvious. For example, v0_mixedcroppasturecover maps to MixedCropPastureCover. Note that the material types are case-sensitive, so it is a good idea to refer to the <tt>[[$FG_ROOT]]/Materials/default/materials.xml file (<tt>[[$FG ROOT]]/materials.xml</tt> in FlightGear 2.6.0 and older) to hand so you can check. The exception is landmass, which - when used - MUST be mapped onto the type Default. | Each shape-file corresponds with one of the material types defined in the materials.xml files.

Additionally, there are a number of optional arguments, to indicate the width of line data (for roads, streams, railways), how large to make point data (for towns) and how long the longest straight line is allowed to be. | Additionally, there are a number of optional arguments, to indicate the width of line data (for roads, streams, railways), how large to make point data (for towns) and how long the longest straight line is allowed to be. | ||
