• 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.

Removing trees

Hi,
I want to remove autogen trees. I trace polygon around theese, select Vegetation in Properties then put the density slider to 0. But the trees remain. I read on other post that they should desapear.
My polygon tool works to delete buildings, to make terraforming, add or remove water...but not for removing trees, even in 6.0 than 6.1 SDK update.
Any solution?
Thanks
 
Try to place a apron, and on top of that a polygon with grass texture. (Maybe a workaround)
 
Are you sure the 3D trees are still there, or is it perhaps just the ground texture that still has the color & shade of the removed tree? (That had me confused too, when I first started chopping trees...)
Those you'd have to remove via aprons (i.e. put a grass texture on top of the tree outline)
 
11 months later...

I found on the web that one solution for this bug is to renew two files of FS2020 LocalState folder : DevMode.xml and imgui.ini. I try this : save theese files then deleted them from the folder. Restart FS2020 (new files automatically created) and now I can remove trees with the Polygon tool by putting vegetation density to zero.

Then I compare the saved and new files. I note one difference : "Draw Shapes" variable is at 0 in DevMode.xml saved file and at 1 on the new one. May be there is other difference.
