• 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.

P3D v3 How to exclude ORBX FTX scenery

Is there a way to exclude ORBX FTX scenery, namely Trees and Roads with traffic that pass right across an airport ?

I tried with ADE 1.67.586 by creating AUTOGEN and ROADS exclude polygons but it does not work.
I placed the scenery in higher priority than ORBX.
 
To exclude default freeway traffic using ADE you have to use the polygon

Type: Exclude General
Tag: Freeway Traffic

This shows the shape poly exclude that removes the traffic that crosses the 10/28 runway at Atlanta.

You only need to compile the CVX bgl and place that in the same scenery folder the Orbx airport is located in.

Thanks. Any ideas for the ORBX autogen trees / landclass ?

Orbx changes many of the default LC. You cannot exclude their LC using any of the default poly excludes. They also delete some of the stock texture files in the World\Texture folder that control what certain LC will show such as all the ones that are defined as Parks.

Someone else may know how to remove the trees and LC without using a global technique.
 
General road exludes (roads without AI traffic) and trees works like before. Exluding AI car traffic and drawing new works fine. But with LC it is a huge problem. General excludes do not work. At ENDU I managed to exlude LC, but only after getting the specific texture info from ORBX.

Cheers,

I have FSX and ORBX don't know if this working for P3D.
If i have trees on my airport i use "Exclude AutoGen" and in Raw Data View i change the TagGuid to : 5a99bc54-7fc1-45c4-bf60-fcd8dbe2ab9f
You need the ProKey for this.

This is from the ORBX terrain.txt :
// ORBX FTXG_V AutoGen_Exclude custom
[Texture.510]
Name=FTXG_V_AutoGen_Exclude
Color=FFFFFF00
guid={5a99bc54-7fc1-45c4-bf60-fcd8dbe2ab9f}
FlattenMode=none
LandClassRemapType=none
ExcludeAutogen=Yes
RenderToTexture=No
RenderPriority=200000
Water=No

Hope this help,Jan
 
I have FSX and ORBX don't know if this working for P3D.

I would like to try this.
In ADE (1.67.5876) I set an exclusion rectangle around all airport.
Type: Exclude General
Tag: Everything

I see the Tools -> Raw Data View but how do I go to/find the specific Exclude polygon's properties to manually edit them in Raw Data ?
In Raw Data I see a list of all nearby objects but cannot find how to identify the specific exclude and also how to edit its raw data.

Any tips ?

Also you mention this edit for Autogen Trees.
Any tips on how to exclude Car Traffic roads ?

Thanks

Petakas,

My example is for the ORBX trees.
I set a rectangle,Exclude AutoGen,where i want to remove the trees.
Open the Raw Data View,in the left screen is it the last "shape poly" click on this.
In the middle screen look for "Tag Guid" and change it to : 5a99bc54-7fc1-45c4-bf60-fcd8dbe2ab9f
If you doing this correct then can you see in the right screen on top the new GUID.
