Hi
Just wondering why my trees in EKCH is still green like the summer time?
I have checked that the season is set to feb month, but still all the trees i EKCH are green and not in "winter season"
Did i missed something or can i do something about it?
Happy landing to all and happy weekend
Dennis

When 'Custom Trees' is selected, then the seasonal switch (global tab) is required to change tree textures for each month. If 'Autogen Trees' is selected, the seasonal switch for tree textures will happen automatically without any switching needed from the Global Tab.
So, if you selected February with 'Custom Trees', then you should see winter textures everywhere. Could you please give it another go?

Yes of cause Emil
You must also remember to take the season in considering.
The given month in the scenery configurator are not in FSX month setting.
March gives spring texture, but are a winter month so all ground textures are green, but the trees are in winter season.
So feb month in the scenery configurator and in the FSX month setting works for me so i have
winter ground textures and winter trees.
Hopes it makes since?

All months in the scenery configurator are 'synced' to FSX months and seasons.
In FSX, March is spring time in Amager island. Copenhagen airport is within the 'Spring' area in March and so is the scenery configurator. For a large part surrounding Copenhagen, you will find winter ground textures, because that's how FSX defines seasons per area. Have a look at how seasons work in FSX by looking at the attached shots.
the global map show how seasons are distributed in March for the whole globe. The second zoomed-in shot shows where Amager is located. Yellow color represents 'spring', which is surrounded by areas which are facing winter during March.
