Hi All,
I have seen tutorials which state that it is impossible to hide the windmills with polygons or exclusion rectangles. I can vouch for this being true as I have tried both to hide three wind turbines which got generated at Jennette's Pier on the outer banks in NC USA. You can find them right along the beach just south of the Wright Brothers Memorial. I am able to hide the auto-generated buildings at the Wright Brothers Memorial, which were way too large and don't match the real world. The ground images will do until better 3d models can be made into a package, for pilots flying over the Wright Brothers Memorial.
My problem is with a very well known landmark just south of the Wright Brothers Memorial, Jennette's Pier. It's right on the beach just south of the Wright Memorial. There is a ground photo of the building and the pier going under water right where it should be. You can find the pier quite easily, just look for three windmills rising up from the center of the pier. LOL This is my problem. Even if you model or find a model of the pier or just try to replace it with a better image, the windmills remain. I believe the only hope for this area is divine intervention by ASOBO, perhaps on a future patch or update, still I wanted to ask the excellent FS Developer community if anyone has a solution or work around for me?
I know it is a very big planet with an impossible amount of terrain and billions of structures and the auto-gen is our best bet (only hope), but of all the locations that may need some special love (USA Update?) from ASOBO/MS, one might think that the area around the "birthplace of powered flight" might be first on the list to make beautiful, in the ultimate flight simulator. Thanks all.
