Summer Vegitation....reduction...

Postby Fozzer » Fri Aug 17, 2012 4:07 am

Hello Chums... :)...!

There are times, in Southern California, (Central Valley, etc), during the Summer Months, when the vegetation is very sparse, and the ground often very and dusty, with scrub.

Is there a way of reducing the density of the Autogen Vegetation (trees) without reducing the natural density of the buildings, etc, present, to make it more representative of the actual area at that time of the year?

Paul....FS 2004...and a watering can... ;)...!

No, there is no easy way.  You can use the MS editor to edit a set of .AGN files (there are dozens) with less autoggen vegetation and then swap those for the default (but only during the summer and only when your are flying in SoCal).  A lot of work...

As Fozzer said., the idiot I was complaining about was a spammer, not Fozzer at all. :P

Just came back from my mostly raining vacations and thought it'd be fair to point this out. ;)
