I have tried uninstalling the add-on scenery that I downloaded from SimV and reinstalled with no luck. I also have looked in all my scenery folders for other KMCO add-ons and found none. I am sure this has been asked before but how do you remove these. Thanks, Dave in KALN
If you are looking for another airport called KMCO you will never find it because it has a different name. I have no idea as to what the name is but I can promise you that there is a default KMCO more than likely it is in the NAMERICA folder but not 100% sure.
If you use airport design editor you might get lucky and be able to remove the trees. What was the name of the file you downloaded It is possible that you missed something. Some scenery designers will use what is called an exclude command that you have to add to the scenery in order for it to work correctly. The exclude command does exactly what you would think it does it clears an area of everything kind of like erasing a blackboard. You do not see this a lot and the designer will make a comment about it in the readme file.
But removing the default KMCO scenery is not going to solve your problem as I fly in and out of KMCO a lot and can tell you I have no trees anywhere on the airport or taxiways.
Your problem definitely is in the new KMCO you just added
Something you can try that might work is to make the new airport the last item in your list. One of the nasty thing FS does is when you add new scenery it wil put it at the top of the list sometimes you have to put it at the bottom for it to work correctly. you can moe it down the list in the scenery add area you just have to keep bumping it down till it is on the bottom.
This may sound odd but you have to remember that FS draws scenery in a certain order and whenever you have two things going in the exact same place it can make a difference as to which is displayed first as one will overwrite the other to a point. You have to pay attention to where the two scenery's are being placed as you have to make sure that the one with the largest area is displayed last this effectively removes the first scenery by replacing it with the second scenery.
Think of painting a wall that is 12x12 if you paint the entire area red than come back and paint an area 11x11 on the same wall blue it will leave some red still there. Do the same thing but in reverse order paint the 11x11 first than the 12x12 second you will not see any blue as you covered it with the red
FS does the same thing.
I hope this makes sense to you.
