I have been working on making this myself but ran into an issue I changed the airports elevation. Wasn't thinking. Now even when I delete my modified version of kogd the default version stays at the elevation I changed it to. Any way to fix this?

Look in the Scenery\World\scenery folder for a file with the airport's code in it, then delete it. Your elevations should be back to normal.

Awesome thank you. One thing i have been trying to figure out is when i an extend a runway the autogen scenery is showing up in the runway. how do i get rid of the autogen scenery so i can extend the runway? i looked threw a few posts on some forums and found an answer but not steps to get to that answer. Any help would be great.

You didn't say if you're using FS9 or FSX. Someone's already done a very nice version of KOGD for FS9. Just search the file libraries here or on Flightsim.com.

im using fsx and i saw there version but i am making it more of a commerical airport.

Here's some geek speak, courtesy of the SDKs.

 

Airports in FSX sit on Airport Backgrounds. Airport Backgrounds don't just apply to airports. Airport Backgrounds can flatten terrain. They can exclude autogen. They can MaskClassMap. And Airport Backgrounds can be made to do combinations of the above.

 

If you are going to adjust the airport, say by extending a runway, you must adjust the Airport Background. It's an easy enough process, if... you remember this tenet about most of the terrain based work for FSX; exclude the existing and add in the new.

 

So simple process to rid the trees from the runway is exclude the existing Airport Background (AB) and add in a new AB.
