How to exclude and flatten without ADE in FS9?

Post by james84 »

I'm trying to make an ADE9 scenery for Pratica di Mare (LIRE - gonna share it once ready).
The file works ingame very well and with no trouble using MAIW's libraries, but I need to flatten the area surrounding the airport and to eliminate the autogen. ADE9 doesn't allow to do this (only ADEX has these features): what can I do?

Giacomo, I don't want to stop your job but do you know, or have you tried this scenery from Enzo Calcagni? http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=80270
I use it since long time, It's a nice representation of the base.
Here is an old screenshot, I know, you can't see so much....

Thanks Giorgio!
I remember that scenery!
My idea was just to understand how ADE works, and since I reinstalled FS2004 from zero I decided to try to make my own scenery!

Sbuilder can flatten and exclude autogen. You can also modify the airport background textures with it.
As far as I remember it is a little bit tricky to set up. But I think it is quite a powerful tool especially in combination with ADE and its ability to use background images. There are several Sbuilder threads in the Learning Center.

Thanks!
I also made a google search and found Sbuilder, but I am missing an OCX file whose name I don't remember. I'm using Windows 7...

You can Google for that file as well.
