| 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.

| Ground2K for Beginners |
|
File Description:
Newly revised for Ground2K version 4
Ground2K version 4 by Christian Fumey is a very easy to use design tool for Flight Simulator terrain scenery. With it, you can create and modify coasts, roads, rivers, lakes, islands, land and water class, altitude mesh, and textured ground polygons.
This short user guide is meant for beginners, and presents some basic concepts concerning Flight Simulator terrain, and a step-by-step explanation of some of the principal functions of Ground2K.
No technical terms are used here, for ease of comprehension.
An HTML document for universal compatibility.
New sections include:
- expanded coverage of basic concepts and functions;
- common problems and errors with solutions;
- glossary of terms
Very sorry - no support is offered for this guide. For any questions, please consult the AvSim forum dedicated to Flight Simulator scenery design.

| Chatham Islands for Vector Land Class New Zealand |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This project is a modified version of the Chatham_Islands.zip project which allows my landclass and airports to work seamlessly with the free Chatham Islands scenery available from Vector Land Class New Zealand. This package allows the user to switch back and forth easily between the different scenery combinations and also provides standalone Chatham and Pitt Island airports which can be used with the Vector Land Class (VLC) scenery on its own. It also allows the user to take advantage of the 15m terrain mesh and added water detail that comes with the VLC scenery. A modified Pitt Island AI runway is also included that is compatible with the 15m mesh. Chatham Islands/Tuuta Airport (NZCI), Napier (NZNR), and the Pitt Island Airstrip (NZPI) are included here. Scenery was created using Airport Design Editor X v1.47.07, SBuilderX 3.13, and the FSX Object Placement Tool. Scenery objects were added and modified from stock FSX scenery to resemble as closely as possible the actual airports.

| Southeast Farallon Islands Version 3 |
|
File Description:
Complete download: Surf height fix. Also new island texture map. These islands were mysteriously absent from the FS2004 default scenery, probably owing to their small size. When I went to look for them I found a small mountain of water instead of the islands. Most people don't seem to be aware of the Farallon Islands. Located off the coast of California, near San Francisco, they are home to thousands of birds, seals, and some of the largest Great White sharks known to man. All of this is within a very short distance of the city. Today, it is a wildlife refuge and is off limits to visitation by the general public. Those of you interested in more info might check out "The Devil's Teeth" by Susan Casey. This island is actually a scenery object. As such it doesn't have a landable surface. Future versions will have a helicopter pad, a lighthouse, and the 100 year old houses used by researchers.

| FSX Dynamic Benchmark Package |
|
File Description:
This package provide a means of measuring the performance of FSX in a repeatable and consistent manner. The benchmark is a 5 minute long autopiloted CRJ700 flight that starts just after the aircraft has taken off from KPAE, climbed to 1500ft, and reached 250kts towards the Seattle city center, overflies KSEA then heads directly for Mount Rainier. The idea is to get a good mix of rural / suburban / cityscape, clouds, water, and AI aircraft / boats / cars. Use include assessing the impact of FSX setting changes, the impact of different hardware drivers, hardware setting changes and hardware upgrades on FSX performance. It can also be used to comparing the performance of your system to other similarly configured systems to ensure the performance you are achieving is is representative of what can be expected and to compare the performance of your system to hardware component changes or a new system that you are considering upgrading to yourself.

| Stereo Sound Upgrade for Bristol Hercules Engines |
|
File Description:
This stereo sound upgrade of Harry
Follas's Bristol Hercules piston-engine
sounds for FS98 was created primarily
for use with the Handley Page Hermes
by Georg Hauzenberger, but should work
well with any aircraft that was fitted
with these engines. This includes
aircraft such as the Handley Page
Hastings, Grumman Albatross, Nord
Noratlas, Vickers Viking, Short Solent,
Avro Lancaster (Mk2 models) and the
Bristol Beaufighter.
By converting the sounds to FS2004
multiple-engine stereo, the engines
now emit a realistic piston-engine roar
at full throttle, but this quietens
down to a more subtle sound in cruise.
Other associated sounds have been
added - ehgine startup, shutdown and
wind effects in flight. Touchdown
effects will now detect if the
aircraft is landing on ground or
water so you can comfortably use
these sounds with amphibious aircraft.
Requires original FS98 soundpack by
Harry Follas hercsnd.zip (the files
are also distributed with the Handley
Page Hermes and Hastings models and
probably others too.

| Pete & Sid's Viva Scenery Volume 4 |
|
File Description:
This is a collection of scenery enhancements for 81 airports, mostly smaller ones, located primarily in the Pacific Northwest, Alaska and Western Canada. (Yes, there's one in New Zealand.) It was not our intention to do anything fancy or particularly accurate, but simply to make the default scenery less boring and more fun. General aviation AI traffic (using default FS9 aircraft) is also included for some of these airports. The scenery for any individual airport may be removed without affecting the other airports. Some the airports we've done may also be included in Glacier Bay and other scenery add-ons; you'll need to remove one or the other to resolve any conflicts. This scenery was designed to work with Flight1's Ultimate Terrain and has not been tested with the default FS9 scenery. Most of the airports will probably work fine with the default scenery; those airports near water features (lakes, rivers, coastlines) are the ones most likely to have problems.
