I just purchased FlyTampa scenery for YSSY Sydney and they had trees on the runway,needless to say i wasn't happy. I watched your tutorial and removed the trees ,many thanks to you and your efforts .

[@patriotsix5880]

Thanks for watching and I am glad you resolved this issue. In my opinion FlyTampa is the best. I can assure you it was not a FlyTampa issue. I have seen the same issue before in the middle of a runway in a different airport. The Sims AI generates trees. The AI attempts to determine if a tree is needed based on aerial imagery. Sometimes, it misses. That is why you will see misplaced trees on bridges and buildings. However, now that you know how to remove trees, you can get rid of any that are out of place. Good luck and happy flying.

[@patriotsix5880]

@@DistasterArea I understand that. It is straightforward stuff but like everything else, you have to get used to doing it. Once you get used to it, it is like riding a bicycle. In the beginning, I noted every single steps for reference. I haven't touched the notes in almost two years because all of the steps are firmly committed to memory through repetition. There is a thought process that probably everyone that contemplates building science has to overcome. Once you realize that every single thing you do lives in a folder and is not a permanent change, then you can relax because by pressing delete, all of the changes are gone. I think some believe they will make mistakes that permanently impact the simulator. Not true. A simple delete brings everything back to normal. Good luck in your journey.

Normally terraforming is the SDK tool you use to improve elevations, ETC. From what I have seen, terraforming only works on the stock Bing mesh. That said, I have not tried every possibility including Orbx. I wish I could tell you more but you are outside of my experience with Orbx.

Thank you Sir! I subscribed. Thanks to you, I managed to removed the trees that spoiled LSVE Altiport de Croix de Coeur in Switzerland at my first attempt! There were big spruce trees that made landings and take offs there more difficult than in real life! So, you helped me fix this!👍👍 It was a small polygon. Now, there are HUGE areas with trees that should not have trees, or much smaller ones, in the world, ie South Africa. I tried but failed to make HUGE polygons. I need to do polygons like 20 by 20 km. How do I draw the polygon? Can I just use the drone, Control + Left click mouse, then move far away with the drone, then set another polygon point? I struggle to swap between polygon drawing and moving with the drone, then continue making the polygon... Or should I just make a small square polygon, and then, somehow, change the coordinates of the 4 corner of the polygon? It this possible?

[@patriotsix5880]

Hmmm... I think you can simply zoom out the amount necessary to see the entire area you want to make the polygon. I have made some large polygons before. Maybe over a kilometer square. I am not certain how big of a polygon you need. If you still have issues maybe you can shoot me a screenshot and I can look for myself.

Not Europe, but I just want to remove/change vegetation in the Amazon forest (don't worry: I am not Bolsonaro, more like an updater of the recent forest cuttings, as Bing imagery is a few years old), and South Africa.

[@EmissionGaming]

Great Tutorial, works great, but unfortunately it seems to just "hide" Tree's instead of removing them. I removed a couple massive Tree's infront of a RWY but now I just crash into absolutely nothing as if the Tree is still there. Is this normal, or may I have done something wrong?

[@patriotsix5880]

Thanks for watching. I am still trying to figure out the answer since I rarely fly where I have removed trees. I can think of one instance where trees were generated in the middle of one of the runways at Chicago Midway. I used the normal SDK process, and the trees were gone without any issues. To my knowledge, trees do not have collision textures. I could fly through the ones at Midway, but having trees in the runway is an emersion killer. It makes me think there is something else there. I would crash on one of the runways at JFK for a while. Nothing was visible there, yet I would hit something invisible that would destroy the plane. The Creator finally fixed the issue. It is a long shot, but you might try going to the location and adding an "ExclusionRectangle" and tick exclude all objects. You'll need to resize the rectangle appropriate to the required area. If you are okay sharing, what airport and runway are you working on?

[@jurrich]

You seem to skip over a pretty important step: if I click "save" on the scenery, it asks me where to save, despite having the SimpleScenery folder copied from the SDK into my documents, and having opened that already. Why is it asking where to save? What am I saving, for that matter?

[@patriotsix5880]

Thanks for watching. In older SDK iterations, you had to set the save path. It is unnecessary in the newer SDK for the past year or so. All you are saving is an updated XML document that points to all scenery objects you select and writes the GPS location, elevation, and lateral orientation. If you have the updated SDK, please tell me what kind of project you are saving. Typically, simple scenery projects do not need the path identified. If you change the name of the top-level XML document in the folder from ScenrySimple to something different, it may ask for a path. I am unsure because it has been a while since I have renamed that XML Document. Please let me know, and we can decide on the next steps.

[@patriotsix5880]

Hello skyloops. I am goign to repeat your question as I understand it. But if I need to interpret it correctly, please help me know. You built a package to remove trees from an airport, and it works. You removed the file from the community folder, but the trees are still missing. Based on that logic, did you happen to restart the simulator after removing the package from the community folder? Any time you add or remove a package, a restart is required to clear the memory or to pick up the new addition. If you restart the simulator with the file removed from the community folder and the trees are still missing, I am unsure what to say. I have never seen that situation before.

[@patriotsix5880]

I assume you are referring to the Developer Camera. It is like the Drone Camera. You can move with A, S, W, and D keys. You can raise vertically with R and fall vertically with F. You can rotate with number keypads 4 and 6. If you get all out of sorts on the vertical plane; you will eventually. Number Keys 7 and 9 will change your azimuth. Typically I drop all the way to the ground to start by using key F. Then I rotate the camera with my mouse to get the camera in control. You will learn what I mean. LOL, The camera can be a wild stallion at times. Bu mouse it is left [Control] always down and the left mouse button to spin freely. You can use your mouse wheel to zoom. It eventually becomes muscle memory but it is awkward at first.

[@patriotsix5880]

I know your question is rhetorical and not specifically directed at me to me but, I will give it a shot. I don't know. It sounds easy but I assume there could be unintended or undesirable consequences. I see plenty of areas where vegetation is not detected by the AI and rendered but that is probably because I induce other maps as opposed to Bing. I would think the engine is tuned to work with Bing Maps. Funny story. I have the KMDW Chicago Midway payware airport and I have departed and landed there several times. Of course, I checked everything out after I downloaded the purchase. One night I landed like normal and right in the middle of the runway I see this thing ahead. it is dark and I am thinking what the deuce is this. As I got closer it was a group of trees smack in the middle of the runway. I think I was still at 70 or 80 knots when I figured out what I was running into.
