IMPORTANT NOTE !! This last set (ag tree lib 11),...... ONLY install the following 2 files

ag_tree_lib.BGL
ag_tree_lib.xml




Once you have all these files installed, you will not need to download them
again for any other scenery that uses them.

Okay, you've downloaded and installed the AbacusEZSceneries.exe, correct?

Now, have you also searched AVSIM for each of the other files mentioned e.g. "small airport objects 2 by Steve Ziegler."

I'm not familiar with FSX, so I don't know exactly how the folders are structures, I'm afraid. Though in your 'Addon Scenery' folder, is there a folder for 'Static Objects Library?' If so, install them in here, making sure there is another two folders inside, called 'Scenery,' and 'Texture.'

If you are not seeing any of these folder, create them in the normal way. Then, install the downloaded files to do with this scenery into there, and add it through the Flightsim.

Hope this helps

Have you the Deluxe or standard versions of FSX if you had the Deluxe you could just place FSX default scenery objects yourself and not work about all those horrible object librarys

Its very easy to learn how to place default objects in FSX all you have to do is to activate the SDK packs
anyway dude you could just have the standard version so you are stuck with the Librarys you are getting so ill shut up now

I would advise against installing the tree library -- ag_tree_lib -- if you have SP2 installed, as these trees are not compatible with FSX SP2.

ok i have fsx accel so i wont install trees cheers.

I guess this is going to be an issue trying to get FS2004 airports working in FSX. One simple solution, if you have FSX Deluxe:

Install the SDK;
Install FSX KML (available here);
If you don't already have it, install Google Earth;

Now draw a polygon around the problem airport in Google Earth, save it as a KML file, load the KML file into FSX KML, tag the polygon with 'Airport_Backgrounds_ExcludeAutoGen', then compile.

Then one optional step -- upload the file here:)

thankyou but that seams real hard for me to do im so confused! ill wait til they bring it out for fsx oneday much appreciated for your help!

Bear in mind, this scenery WAS made for FS9 ONLY !!
For anyone experiencing trees in the runway in FS9, drop me an e-mail at snowman@nzff.org and i will send you a couple of exclude bgl files that will remove them.
You just drop the files straight into Motueka's "Scenery" folder, re-start FS, and the trees are gone.
I no longer have FSX, so i cant help you with the FSX problem im sorry..................
