| Sorted POI global cities and airports pack for FSDiscover! |
|
File Description:
README:
FSDiscover! Global Point of Interest pack.
Here is a poi pack of roughly 147 000 cities, 40 000 small airports,
1 177 seaplane bases, 4695 medium airports and 475 of the largest
airports.
Airports are split up in categories, small, medium, big, seaplane base.
Cities are split up into files of 10 000 cities each by size.
There are 15 files for cities.
The smallest cities are in xaa, xab, xac, xad, and so on.
The biggest cities are in xam, xan, until xao.
You should open the files in notepad to see for yourself which city
files to activate in FSDiscover! to balance clutter and detail.
This has been my main problem with the default populated places list;
there is no way to sort by population size
Compared to the default FSDiscover! populated places here are some
notes:
I have noticed that in the default FSDiscover! set for europe and many
other places, the coordinates are placed like on a "honeycomb" grid
which obviously is not very precise. In general, in terms of city map
precision, this pack should be better.
In the default pack, in an area I am familiar with, a city was placed on the other side of
a river compared to reality. In many other areas, you can clearly see
that the cities are not well-aligned with Ultimate Terrain europe or
even some places in UT USA. My theory is that either data was not super
precise for europe to begin with or that the dataset has been arranged
in the honeycomb grid fashion perhaps to reduce clutter or something.
Mostly though, the default populated places FSDiscover! file is very
useful for really small villages since these tend to be forgotten in
other datasets. The problems come when you want to filter out smaller
villages or airports. This is where this pack comes in handy.
Since no data is perfect, you can use this pack alone or in
combination with the FSDiscover! defaults. Personally, I put the same
files in both "Documents/FSDiscover Files" and
"Program Files/FSDiscover" so I can pick and choose a useful combo
from relevant sets inside the options.
Personally, I prefer the cities from this pack and the rest
(mountains, rivers etc.) from the default FSDiscover! pack.
INSTALLATION:
Just unzip the archived files into "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\FSDiscover Files"
or "C:\Program Files (x86)\FSDiscover!\geodata" or both!
I do not know if the geodata folder is completely overwritten some
times or not so keep that in mind. (probably safe, though)

| Real Gates for Default Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH) |
|
File Description:
The airport has added to 125 REAL gates/parkings with REAL preferred gates, from the default 42 parkings. And, I collected the gate and parking information by using an actual airport map. Tower view is added and you are now able to view from the tower.
I have corrected the position of the VASI lights for 25R, it was moved from the left of the runway to the runway of the runway. The runway 7L/25R is now available for landing only, which is similar to the reality. As cargo jet uses runway 7R/25L for landing and takeoff, I didn't closed for landing for this runway. Besides, overrun area is added at both ends of both runways.
