Greetings!

Does anyone know how to remove autogen trees/buildings in FS9?
On my airfield there are consistently trees in the middle of the parking area, as well as buildings I cannot remove.
I have tried a variety of exclusion rectangles that don't work.......
And keep being haunted by BrandonF's reply to another post on this subject! Grin

If it is for FS9 then an exclusion rectangle set to exclude all is known to work for trees.�

If that does not work then you might need to use an exclusion made with SBuilder.

Thanks Scruffyduck for that: it is for FS9 and I've tried exclusion rectangles for "everything" to no avail.
Would love to try an SBuilder exclusion; but how does one do that when the airfield was made with AFCAD2 which isn't recognised by SBuilder? Undecided

Well you will need to create a separate bgl file for the terrain elements. You are not loading the AFCAD file into SBuilder but creating a separate background flatten/exclusion in SBuilder and then create a bgl file for them. I have some tutorials (bit old now) on www.scruffyduckscenery.co.uk. ; Click the Tutorials link and then look at Airfield Regression etc.

Many thanks Jon for pointing me in the right direction: I've downloaded the Airfield Regression tutorial and can already see this is going to be much more than just interesting reading!
Can't understand why I missed all this good stuff, including all about different layers and inserting all kinds of polies.
A whole new world of scenery creation opens up!
