Taxiway marker removal?

Postby gypsymoth » Mon Dec 27, 2010 6:15 am

I've turned the default Waddington AB into a WW2 RAF base & I have unwanted taxiway markers showing.   Exclusions don't work neither does my turning down autogen - they remain even when at zero. Is there a way of getting rid of these markers, please?   Is it possible to removed them from FS9 altogether even?   ::)

Hello Dave.  Thanks - I'll try that trick but these are small black efforts with no numbers....I'll get back to you when I've fiddled about  ;)

I might be wrong in this, but keep in mind that if you disable the Taxiway signs aptsigns.bgl in the Root Texture folder, then that will affect ALL airports in FS9, not just the one that you are wanting to work with.

Now JFK, LGA, LAX, ATL, CLT, and every other one around the world does not have signs.



if you are talking about the Taxiway "lights" the little blue lights on the sides, get AFCAD 2.2.1

Yes it will remove ALL default taxiway signs - as I mentioned in my response.

I know I would not want that but perhaps he does.

You're right Dave, I do want them removed.
I've installed Golden Wings 3 & as WW2 military airfields didn't have (as far as I know?) these signs, I don't want to see them.

Another thought...if I got rid of the texture for all those light poles, etc that sprout in the middle of road or along side, would they go away too?  If so, what's the texture for them?
Thanks.

Don't argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Thanks Joe....that works a treat.  Getting rid of them in the UK is all I really wanted & it's great not to have them.   8-)
