Delete big Trees
Is there any way to modify the FS2020 to remove those annoyingly large trees? It takes a lot of the realism out of scenarios where there are exaggeratedly tall trees.

In addition when flying above 2,500 ft the autogen is disappearing and only remain the big trees and is very ugly too, I prefer in any case that I do not appear more

There is a mod to make the trees shorter and more realistic

Thanks for that link. I'll give that a try. But it's not just the trees that are larger. I fly X Plane 11, P3D v4.5, v5 and FS2020. The scenery is a different size in each of those simulators. With the trees and buildings looking the smallest, then P3D they get a little larger and then in FS2020 they are huge. It's like there is a magnifier on the ground view in FS2020 to artificially make everything larger.

Thanks man, its very helpful. I downloaded it yesterday and tried it, I noticed a great improvement but I was not convinced, until I entered the file and started to modify the sizes of the trees myself and now I am more satisfied with the result.

I am surprised that Asobo has delivered with such bad parameters, trees that reached 36m high is crazy, it took out a lot of realism, now after modifying they were more realistic and it only took a few minutes.

Now the next thing would be to see if they can be mofidized so that the houses don't appear almost all as apartments :steamhappy:

OK, there is a V4 of this mod called shorter trees . I've tried to replace the 10-asobo_species file in the first directory below but the tree sizes did not change in game. Next I tried to follow the instructions on the mod page and put the folder in the community folder in my appdata folder - no matter what I do the tree sizes are not changing.

Anyone who's using this mind sharing with me how you got it working?
