..mmm...it's not what you want for the FLATTENING process..it's an EXCLUDE utility for getting rid of roads , lampposts pylons etc which can't be got rid of by the usual programs which remove trees, houses etc...
I tried Flattex too and found it very messy adding to the scenery.cfg file....advised by members here I now use Flattenbgl...this produces a .bgl file which you just put into wherever you find is suitable...it is nice because you can flatten areas of all shapes not just rectangles........
Try Excludebgl for those odd trees and other things that seem to grow where you don't want them...........this as it says produces a .bgl, much nicer than messing with the scenery.cfg.
Hope this helps....commoner
