    VTP excludes for CFS2

    Currently doing a revamp of the Carolines Islands for CFS 2

    Works great in a "Rhumba World" install, but trying to improve it's usefulness by excluding the stock VTPs using EXCL8 v2, following a suggestion from Jean Bomber.

    I created excludes for layers 8, 16 & 32.

    The excludes work great, removing the coastlines, but the stock rivers on large islands like Ponape remain

    Any suggestions? Is it as simple as creating excludes for all the VTP layers (8 to 32)?

    OK, I think I got it to work:

    I had some old layer notes about earlier FS terrain

    Dan Hamblin layer notes for airports
    Layer Number What is it for?
    4 Ground, seed
    8 Ground Polygons
    12 Rivers
    16 Roads
    20 Lines, Taxiways
    24 Runways and Taxiways
    28 Mountains

    so I ran excl8 again, choosing to exclude all the programme defaults (layers 4, 5, 6, 7, 8), plus every +4 after (layers 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 & 32). That seems to have worked.

    Now, on to relocating/ replacing some airbases ...
