• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

MSFS24 Exclude Windturbines Vegetation

Good morning.

I just noticed that the wind turbines in MSFS24 have a vegetation foundation. Does anyone know how to get rid of the vegetation? I tried to put a vegetation polygon over the spot and set the vegetation to 0 (zero) and exclude it. That doesn't work. The wind turbines themselves can no longer be hidden using an exclusion polygon. As far as I've tried, that only works with an exclusion rectangle.
Has anyone had any experience with this?

I am just going to observe that that looks strongly like a temporary solution in order to make a release date, or that the Statue of Liberty went woke and spawned. I mean that you can't exclude it is an even bigger clue. I personally would expect them to be replaced with an update and I'd consider posting this at the official forum to generate enthusiasm to move it up the todo list.
 
That was also my first guess, either as a placeholder or the Statue of Liberty 😄
I'll definitely do that and report an issue.
 
I made a request today and the answer is that the error has already been fixed. It will probably be patched with one of the next updates.

I think it is apropriate - it is after all green energy
 
Just seen your post here Christian with the link to devs reaction. It somehow helped me not to refund which I was very close to do. How things can go in strange ways sometimes.
 
Very glad to learn it wasn't something to do with the poor whales and sound damping :rolleyes:, but instead over an even more nonsensical last minute typo.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
I wanted to ask if anyone has already managed to exclude the vegetation around the wind turbines.
I tried again today and found that the vegetation still can't be excluded.

The default wind turbines can be excluded with an exclusion rectangle. Unfortunately, vegetation cannot.
Do I need to use some kind of trick?
