• 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.

I wrote it here because any other forum seems to be right for it.

I´m searching a program with i can remove the autogen trees and flatten the area from some ground waves.

I tried excbuilderV2 thats ok for excluding.

Then i tried sbuilder but it don´t get it working the exlcude, it won´t compile the bgl, i recieve all the time an error and found anywhere a solution for it.

Now i ask myself which will be the right program for my problems?

I don´t need creating an airport, only the 2 things mentioned above.

Do you have suggestion, would be a great help for me.

Oh i forgett i use FS2004

I think SBuilder is probably the best tool for what you want to do. What errors are you getting?
 
OK if your problem is that your machine is set to a comma for the decimal separator then SBuilder will not work and requires that you set it to a point.

I switch back and forth all the time when developing my software. I use the Regional and Language Settings in the Control Panel to change it and in Regional Options select English(UK) to get the separator as a point and German to set it to a comma. This changes some parts of the display but not much. Try setting to English and re-start SBuilder - at least you can establish if that makes things work.

Also there are some tutorials on my website that show how to use SBuilder and I thinkthe first one on Regressing Airfields covers flattens and excludes
 
Dear Jon,

nothing of your suggestion work. I changed the location and region and all i can change to egnlish UK. But when i do so i get the "runtime error 13" i look at the ptsim forum but there is no answere. ahhhh damn
 
Well Luis sometimes posts here so maybe he can help
 
Hello Tabbi,

You need to set the decimal separator character to "." instead of ",". But you can keep all the other regional settings.

I could not quite understand the exact problem that you are encountering.

Kind Regards,

Luis
 
Sorry english not my native language.
But i solved the problem!

Jon was right with his hint to the setting changes.

THEN i install sbuilder NEW.

So you have to change the setting language etc. to "english UK" BEFORE installing and use it the first time.

And now it works. Hope also next time starting my PC.

Many thanks to you both
