You want to work with EF6 model without generating *.csdl / *.msl / *.ssdl, don't you?

Please enable the DbContext template in your *.edml model via Model Explorer > the Templates node and set its Fluent Mapping property to True. Also select designer surface, press F4 (Properties) and set Metadata Artifact Processing to Do Not Generate Mapping Files.

Refer to http://blog.devart.com/entity-developer ... plate.html.

Is that what you need?

If you want not to generate some entities, please remove them from conceptual (CSDL) part of your model. In this case, you can leave them in storage (SSDL) part or remove them from SSDL as well.
