| "Himalayan Peaks" LOD10 Mesh, Volume 6 - Jammu and Kashmir |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Highly detailed terrain mesh of the Jammu and Kashmir areas, N31-36 E76-78. The files in this package are based on Shuttle Radar (SRTM) Version 2 data but with many of the void areas, especially the most significant sections, filled with elevation data generated from topographic maps by Jonathan de Ferranti. While Jonathan's work is unrelated to flight simulation he kindly gave me permission to compile his data for use in FS. The result is a wonderful improvement in detail and accuracy over any existing mesh file, freeware or commercial, based on SRTM or DTED data alone.
Due to the large area of the Himalayas I've compiled the source data as two separate series: the "Himalayan Peaks" series covers prominent mountains and ranges in higher detail and locally overrides any existing LOD9 terrain mesh. In addition, a LOD9 "base mesh" series covering the entire Himalayas will be available for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| Scotports Volume 1 |

File Description:
It is well noted that Scottish Airports are very neglected by scenery developers in FS9, mainly the smaller Airports. Therefore I decided to do a little something about it! - Using the wonderful Airport Design Editor (ADE), I have constructed these sceneries from scratch, after deleting all of the disappointing default buildings and objects. The airports included are 99% realistic regarding runways, aprons and taxiways and general airport layout, however there may be a one or two minor discrepancies due to FS limitations. I have also added fictional ILS to runways which don't have ILS in the real world. All scenery objects and textures are by Sidney Schwartz (especially for ADE), of whom, without his long hours of work, none of this would have been possible. Airports in this package are: Campbeltown (EGEC), Eday (EGED), Kirkwall (EGPA), Sumburgh (EGPB), Wick (EGPC), Inverness v2 (EGPE), Islay (EGPI), and Dundee (EGPN). All these airports are served by Loganair.

| CFM International CFM56-7 v4 |
|
File Description:
New version of the popular Boeing 737NG soundset, this time exclusively re-built for Project Opensky 737-800. A few changes except the new cfg is a new interior spool sound, making it sound a alot more authentic to the real deal. Also new roll and wind sound to enhance the realism.
I've also added the "hum" you can hear just before the spool kicks. In this verion you can hear it from cockpit as the exterior remains the same.
I've also fixed the spool pitch because i noticed that in the earlier version the spool was a bit off. The POSKY 738 has very powerful engines and take-off thrust should be like 90%. I've built it after a Ryanair video by Christel Jenny Sinsen where i estimate the thrust being around 90%. This by far the most realistic CFM56-7 soundset today and are very close to the real thing. Created with FS Sound Studio. Enjoy!

| Deer Valley FC Resort & Roosevelt Lake |
|
File Description:
Deer Valley Resort at Roosevelt Lake Scenery. -
This is a fictious Resort at Roosevelt Lake by Grapevine AZ USA.
Its basically a fly-in resort for the Deer Valley Flying Club members to relax, do some fishing, go to the Amusement Park and have a general great time. But the resort is now open to the public. If you dont want to spend the big bucks, there is a small campground located nearby.
I suggest a float plane or helocopter for the trip out and back. If you're a competent bush pilot, you might be able to land on the grass runway, but its a very difficult strip. Fly a STOL plane or you wil not make it.

NOTE: This scenery is frame rate friendly, but I would highly suggest turning off ground shadows.

| Updated night lighting for Airbus A320 and A321 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This an OPTIONAL night light upgrade for the Project Airbus A320 and A321 and includes reshaped and brightened engine landing light reflection. Most important and noticeable upgrade is the wing lights (due to FS limitations, these will turn on with the landing lights, however in real life -depending on airline SOP and pilot preference- these are turned on with the landing lights for takeoff and landing so the effect of doing this is the similar). Wing lights illuminate down wing reflection and the sharklets are also illuminated. I've also now added light reflection on the standard wingtip fence. NOTE: For the FS9 models only but it does work in FSX. A318 and A319 update will come at a later date however, you can simply change the name of the wing and engine texture files to make them work. Textures only, you need the freeware Project Airbus A320 or A321 and any livery you wish to use this on to work.

| Franks Updated Scenery Items - Part 1 |
|
File Description:
These files contain GMAX designed scenery items for use in FS2004 utilizing the new FS2004 BGLComp SDK.
The true inspiration for these designs comes from Frank Betts over at Franks Hangar (http://www.flightsimsetc.dhs.org/) who originally designed these items as macros for use with Airport and FSSC programs. Frank was gracious enough to allow me to redesign them in GMAX for use in FS2004 and beyond. While I may have taken some 'artistic license' on a few items, they are basically identical to those designed by Frank. Most use the identical textures designed with Franks macros, but a few additional custom textures were added.
All files also contain the original GMAX source files, so if you feel the need to alter or improve the fies, please feel free to do so. All I ask is that you share your improvements with the FS world as freeware.
This is Part 1 of a series of files that will eventually update all of Franks macros to GMAX files.

File Description:
Exploring Mt Rainier Natl Park v1.1
UPDATE! Includes missing textures which resulted in some users experiencing CTD and freezes. A complete remapping of Mount Rainier National Park in Washington State. Based upon commercial topographic maps, the designed scenery includes, every hiking trail drawn in meticulous detail including every real life switchback; every lake and small alpine pond 20 feet in diameter and over, modified landclass of alpine, forest & rock; every perennial and many intermittent creeks, all steams and rivers (many braided), a complete glacier mapping of every glacier with custom textures and ice fields on the mountain, a complete mapping of all rock faces and rock, moraine rock deposits, glacier outwash area, mudflows, roads, swamp and marsh areas. Includes some effects. Designed to compliment UT USA and any LOD 9 or 10 mesh. Works well with FS Genesis LOD 10 mesh and Birds Eye View Textures. By Bryan Wallis and Lou Frost.

| Bella Coola Valley Landscape Enhancements |
|
File Description:
One of the most spectacular watersheds of British Columbia's Midcoast, the Bella Coola Valley looks pretty boring in its default FSX rendition and the oddly shaped default Bella Coola River cuts deep into the terrain. These files provide a terrain mesh made from CDED1 0.75-arcsec data (multi-LOD, with maximum resolution of 38-m grid spacing), updated land class, water class, and seasons files, and accurate placements of lakes, rivers, streams, roads, and bridges. Also added are the glaciers of the Monarch Mountain Icefield as well as several forestry roads and clearcuts in the side valleys. Main roads have vehicle traffic moving in both directions. Coverage area is N51*45'-52*40' and W125*35'-127*25'. These files are fully compatible with other landscape enhancements for FSX, such as FS Genesis North America terrain mesh, Cloud 9's X-class, Adam Mill's ground texture replacements, or Flight1's Ultimate Terrain Canada/Alaska.
