• 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.

Did you try to make a exclusion terrain polygon for the area where the trees are?
 
Hi
Thank you for the reply
Can I make an exclusion with airport design editor? I downloaded ADE and had a play. Trying to get my head around it. I loaded up my flight in FSX and selected top-down view took a print screen and saved it as a jpeg. Then I opened ADE set up new airport and added my background, Moved the image which has the red cross were the aircraft is, to match the location of the aircraft in ADE (is this the way to do it? )
Selected the exclusion and selected the area with the trees. I compiled the airport ran fsx again and it rebuilt the airport data base, but the trees are still there
Must be doing something wrong

Regards

Hi,

Yes, you can make those exclusions for ADE. SBuilderX is another option.

I am not an expert in using ADE myself, but the workflow you are describing sounds OK. Of course your background image needs to be aligned correctly for the exclusion to be in the right location. And what type of terrain polygon did you draw? There are many types that can be assigned and not all exclude autogen.
 
Hi Arno

Thank you for the reply what type of polygon should I use
Here is what I have done so far not sure If I am on the right track

You would use the type airport background with the exclude autogen option normally.
