• 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.

FS2004 Excluding Default Bridges

Have been having trouble excluding a default bridge north of KRFD Greater Rockford airport. Tried Exclude Builder, Sbuilder and ADE9 with all items selected. Also, removed the default road leading up to the bridges. Nothing seems to work. Appears to be an Autogen type I guess. I wondered if anyone has used Defarea 2.0 to accomplish this.
 
Sbuilder9 is the tool to use:

"
VTP Scenery
VTP Exclude Polygons


You can exclude default roads, polygons and other VTP scenery by using a polygon of type equal to "Exclude". The exclusion is on an Area and on a Layer basis. You should press F3 to display the LOD13 grid. Every LOD13 square entered by the exclusion polygon will be candidate for exclusion. The other thing that you need, is to set the layers to be exclude. In FS2004, default rivers are in Layer 4, roads are in Layer 6, railroads in Layer 5, coastlines in Layer 8, bridges and airport polygons in Layer 7 and electricity pylons in Layer 4."

Excellent! Thanks a lot. I had been using the Exclusion selection button on the right side of the Tool Bar and I guess that was the problem. Did exactly as you said and selected the level 7 for exclusion. Now I can make a proper bridge. Thanks again!
