Tree felling

Hi,

I recently used the freeware Autotrees program to plant trees in my FS9 UK VFR scenery and although it's brightened up the landscape, it's planted trees down the runways of some airports !! :o

I know that I can manually delete the trees from scenery tiles but anybody got an idea how to identify the particular tiles from within the sim?? With crash detection off I can of course run through the trees but it's hardly realistic ... ;-)

There is actually a free tree felling utility (Try to say that tree time in a row) available at least on Avsim .. The actual filename has slipped my mind at the moment though...

Whoops "Lumberjack" is actually for FSX... sorry.

If you want to identify the tile, try Tcalc2004 (http://www.scenery.org/design_utilities_e.htm)

Thanks

Saved me the effort of finding that link again.

The topic crops up now and again by which time I've forgotten which bookmark it is :doho:

Dave,

Thanks very much for the help - a combination of the tcalc program and autotrees enabled me to clear the runways of all trees. Brilliant :flying:

I think that all the people who helped on this post should take a 'bough'.

Well,

Dave G's knowledge of scenery tools shows he's branching out from aircraft design ;-)
