Using this scenery and flatten: https://flyavagroup.org/index.php/website/download_category/61

Now that I have used it, there is barely any autogen - none on the approach. Before, there was tons.

Any ideas?

Thanks

The flattening contains a remove autogen instruction most probably. So if the scenery does not have its own trees buildings, you clear out everything from the scenery below. You could do your own flatten without delete autogen.

P.S.

I downloaded the scenery and rework the afcad. Looks like even default is cutting out a square in the autogen houses. Also satellite scenery of the city in files Photo01.bgl to Photo10.bgl are removing autogen buildings.

I think I could fix it.

Here you can get instructions and new afcad at P3D5 altitude etc.

Do you or somebody interested in Africa now a decent Lagos airport scenery?

P.S. I also quickly fixed FNLU_Objects.bgl, which contains parts of the city and coast objects. With P3D5.3, they were skyscrapers standing in the water. Moved them behind the road and also reduced them. According to Google Earth, there is not that much of a skyline today.

Another P.S.

I modified FNLU_Objects.bgl, since in P3D5 with ORBX Africa, I had buildings, palms etc. in the water. So to get this FNLU_ObjectsP3D5.bgl, download again.

Yep that was it - removed the photoscnery and then mucked about in ADE with it. Cheers 😄

I found,  there is still a problem. In some of the scenery files there are many exclusion. Deleted them all now and hope to get autogen on all sides of the airport. Maybe then even sat scenery can be used. Will test first, then uplaod. 

I found also Luanda City made the autogen dissapear. I tried recompiling the bgl without autogen suppression but it didn´t help. So make sure to keep it away.

The scenery looks nice now in P3D5 but it´s difficult to modify. The static aircraft are in FNLU2.BGL, FNLU3.BGL and FNLU4.BGL as one object. So it is not possible to repark them to add more parkings for military AI. So if one wants more AI, removing the statics completely was the choice. 

File is updated right before this post.

It is about time that these autogen exclusion problems in the ESP software were fixed. They have been a persistent PITA for a long time.
