Strange autogen buildings beside Edmonton (CYEG) suddenly

[vipgroup]

I have used addons linker for many years, and often modified my parent folder structure. Today, I was doing the same as I have done countless times before, and when I launched FS2020 at CYEG (using both standard scenery and fsimstudios version), I found a change in the autogen to the west of the airfield, and just north as well.

These buildings do not match the photo scenery, and occurred right out the blue (unless I had simply not noticed them before!) I checked FS2024 and they are not present in that version.

I have tried de-selecting all addon scenery and still these things appear.

Can some kind soul check CYEG and see if you see these infernal monstrosities in FS2020? Failing that, I am open to suggestions as to what the heck I might have inadvertently done, and how I can solve it.

Thanks!

Most likely the last FS update popped in those. Had the same thing pop up on the south approach to B06 (Basin Harbor) Most likely an updated ground texture caused the AI to do something stupid. If you know how to set up and use the SDK, make a quick exclude polygon. If not, there are plenty of Tutorials on YT

Ah, maybe I just did not see them... Now I can't un-see them however.

I threw together a quick building exclude scenery for you. Just put the unzipped file in the community folder. That should kill the oddball buildings

Unexpected gift... Going to try it right now. Thank you.

Buildings gone. Thank you Brian.

Glad I could help. Thinking back, I bet those "buildings" were interpreted by the AI system. In reality I'll lay odds considering the background texture, they were big round hay bales... Had the same issue at Basin Harbor in Vermont which had some random buildings in a field that were likely tents from a campout at the nearby VT Maritime Museum and several other "Buildings" at KPBG (Platsburgh NY) that in other aerial photographs were a storage lot for RV's.
