Lawrie, thanks for all the great scenery these last few months ; it seems like theres something great showing up every week.
I have a question about that Dargaville bridge- how did you move it?
I'm trying to exclude the Kaipara Flats big topo bridge that almost butts into the runway, and nothing works. Excbuilder and Flattex seem to only exclude default scenery, unless I'm missing something obvious. Is there another way to do this?

You would have to rename one of the topo files from something like bru99**60 to something like this "bru995**0.bak" this deactivates the file for the bridge but also takes other object out as well in the area ...
you will find the file in the topo folder ,,problem is you have to find what bru file it is ,try the bru files first ....
plz back up the files before changes ...

Hi Hugh.

I DIDNT move the bridge at all,............... i simply constructed a completely new one from FS9 default bridge components, in exactly the same location as the original Topo bridge that only went half way across the Wairoa River. The new bridge in the same location automatically excludes the original agn bridge. Used EZ Scenery to build the bridge.........................

It worked! Placed a smaller bridge in same location, buried it till it was at road level like the small bridge in the google image. Starting to look like a rural airfield now, thanks!

I would upload them if there was interest, but need to get permission to use a couple of voz fences, or sub other ones. All Kaipara Harbour rural fields with a couple of unlisted strips, Kaipara flats is the only default one.
