Removing scenery objects in FSX

[Bill Kestell]

Hi!

Is there a way to remove the US Carrier from the Guam scenery and the US Destroyers from the Pearl Harbor scenery?

I want to establish a Pan Am series of bases (hopefully) and these scenery objects are just in the way.

Thanks!

You could try opening up the nearest airports to the object with ADEX (Airport Design Editor x ) and remove using the in-built exclude function,
Also,Have you try'd lowering your scenery complexity slider.

Do you have the SDK installed?

If so, create a new text document and name it something appropriate.

Copy and paste the following to that new doc...


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<FSData
version="9.0"
xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="bglcomp.xsd" >

<ExclusionRectangle
latitudeMinimum = "N13.448"
latitudeMaximum = "N13.45"
longitudeMinimum = "E144.632"
longitudeMaximum = "E144.636"
excludeAllObjects = "FALSE"
excludeLibraryObjects = "TRUE"/>

<ExclusionRectangle
latitudeMinimum = "N21.3754"
latitudeMaximum = "N21.3837"
longitudeMinimum = "W157.9901"
longitudeMaximum = "W157.9837"
excludeAllObjects = "FALSE"
excludeLibraryObjects = "TRUE"/>

</FSData>

...and save.

Copy the file to ...\SDK\Environment Kit\BGL Compiler SDK\, then drag and drop it on BglComp.exe

This will generate a .bgl file with the same name as your text file.

That .bgl will remove the Guam carrier and the group of ships on Middle Loch. It will not remove the Missouri.

If you want to remove the Missouri you would have to add another ExclusionRectangle section.

Hope this helps.

cheers,
