I have been creating scenery and using Ortho and have what be a silly question. I have the continental US done at 16. Now I am going back and doing major cities that I fly frequently at 19. All is great except, the default trees drive me nuts! I don't think that Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City has trees on the 30 yard line. And I know that many building in Southern California don't all have roof top forest. The only two solutions I see are: 1. turn down graphic settings to low or minimal (that is unacceptable as I lose my night lighting and cars) or: 2. Use WED to create exclusion zones area the metro areas? Anyone else have a different idea? Thanks in advance.

I have been using BashIT-TreesWest xTreme Trees East and West, which is new payware, and I'm very happy with it. I'm using Ortho ZL17 for all of the US, and this works perfectly with it. I've checked out quite a few areas and have not seen trees in stadiums or building, and even the roads are clear of trees. Brian did an amazing job with these packages to make sure the trees are where they are supposed to be. And for only $10 for each package, it is definitely worth the money in my opinion. These two packages give you complete coverage of the entire US including Alaska and Hawaii, and is so simple to install. He even offers a free demo, so you can check it out before you buy. I bought East at SimMarket, but West here at the Org store. The demo is available here at the Org free downloads area.

thanks....I will look into it...what I would really like is just a simple way to eliminate the trees altogether from XP. I find flying over nothing but Ortho with added roads and light from XP is what I prefer. But I will look into add-on. Again, thanks!

dvlourie thats a problem with XP, trees all over the place, one way of minimize this is using OSM based sceneries, like w2xp http://simheaven.com/simdownloads/w2xp-sceneries/ although doenst solve all the trees problems, it helps a lot.
