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.

Redtail Ridge Island Resort (AK94)

File Description:
Redtail Ridge is a fictitious place in Alaska, but it's name is somewhat misleading as there is no ridges on the island. The airport boasts a 2300x45FT dirt runway, although it displays as a snow runway. There is also a 10000FT water runway, marked at each end with a red buoy. The airport is mainly intended as a place for the weary bush pilot to go and relax. There is a line of lakeside cabins to stay in, and there's even three little docks for floatplanes to tie up at. Also available are a selection of boats to rent, both sailboats and motorboats. For transportation around, there is a even a rental car angency. If the cabins are filled, stay in the hotel or sleep outdoors in the campsites. Go shopping at the mall or grab a bite to eat at the fast food joints. Anything you need to relax, you can find it here!

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.

SanFran expansion Toolkit

File Description:
Conversion of the SanFran Region from .cpd to .bin for FU3 This experimental toolkit is for region builders, its not a new full game ! If you want expand the region with new material to the north and the east then conversion to .bin is a must. Do not convert if you don't plan to expand or modify texture of the tiles. Then the only results are a larger game folder :-( The quality of the original tiles will not change ! The SanFran region is converted from 10x11 tiles area into a 16x16 tiles area but no new tiles are made north or east as sample, so a lot of tiles are then still missing and replaced by the blank tile (new full water tile). Elevation is not touched by this installation. After conversion you can use aireal pictures from map services to upgrade somes tiles of this area or even create new for the north-east.

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.

North and Middle Farallon Islands Version 3 Update

File Description:
Beta version 3 update: Adds the North and Middle Farallon Islands to the chain. To be used in conjunction with the Southeast Farallon Island Version 3 download available separately. 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. These islands were created as scenery objects instead of traditional terrain in order to preserve detail.

File Description:
Pratt and Whitney R-2800 Radial Engine Sound Pack (for Douglas DC-6, Convair CV-240, CV-340, CV-440, Canadair Cl-215, Curtiss C-46, etc.)

*This is the FS2004 version*
SkyHigh Audio Simulations is proud to present what is quite possibly the most realistic sounding Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Radial Engine sound pack available! This sound pack is designed to work with ANY model in FS9, but moreso intended for Calclassic's R-2800 powered planes like the DC-6, Convairliners, Curtiss C-46, and also meant for the Canadair CL-215 water bomber. This sound pack includes many unique and realistic features, including realistic start up sounds and vintage propliner environment sounds are included. Realistic interior ambience noises such as the touchdown, hydraulic flaps, gear sound, and more are featured in this sound pack.

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.
