Hi Bob:
Assuming I was correct as to the add-on under discussion here (since you did not acknowledge whether I had I.D.'d the product correctly), you may wish to consider the critical reviews in this web page:
Just Flight's NexGen 3D series of UK photographic scenery combines high resolution photographic textures with accurately placed autogen objects and additional custom scenery objects to give a true '3D' feel to your VFR flights.

"
Scenery Manager utility" raises questions as to whether this add-on keeps inserting itself at the
top of the stack of Area layers in Scenery Library GUI.
This may be comparable to the problems incurred with OrbX FTX Central (...unless one creates an "Insertion Point").
If you create a CVX vector polygon to exclude autogen buildings, it must be placed in an Area layer
above the Area layer of any scenery to be excluded.
Thus, you must check what the Just Flight "Scenery Manager utility" is doing with your friend's Scenery.Cfg file.
That would assume it is simply using direct edits to that file, and not also mangling it via a dysfunctional P3D "
Add-on XML From Hell" routine.
PS: I may be mistaken, but I suspect the autogen portion of this add-on may use a new version of this previously released add-on package:

Perhaps you might find this info useful in troubleshooting how the VFR add-on works ?

possible issues with 'problematic' autogen content management XML utility functions, see references to RevolutionX author Jeff Pollard here:
