| Crested Butte Ski Area |
|
File Description:
This project adds the ski trails to Crested Butte Mountain, Colorado. This scenery will look best when combined with "FSGenesis-The Rockies 38.2m Terrain Mesh-Colorado" available as "fsg_dem38m_usrk_co.zip" at avsim.com, or comparable mesh. The free FSGenesis US National Landclass Project Beta 6 also adds beautifully to the landscape. Made with Ground2K4 v5.33, by Christian Fumey.

| Scenery Pointer |
|
File Description:
I got a little frustrated using Ground2k4, synched to follow my aircraft, and trying to get the crosshairs in the middle of the plane to go up next to a hill. It just can't be done.
So I made a plane that serves no other purpose other than to be a "pointer" in slew mode, with the crosshairs at the "point".

| ALTAM Intersection Scenery Enhancements |
|
File Description:
This scenry project adds missing lake under the ALTAM intersection near Livermore CA, as well as some of the major roads and golf courses in the area. This improves the VFR flying from the extreamly boring default FS rendition. This project was built to be used with the freeware LOD10(38-m) mesh from Justin Tyme at FSGeneis.com.
I have included my LWM source file for Ground2K4 (Christian Fumey) for your further editing if desired.

| Bella Coola Valley Terrain Mesh and Scenery Enhancements |
|
File Description:
One of the most spectacular watersheds of British Columbia's Midcoast, the Bella Coola Valley looks pretty boring in its default FS rendition. These files provide a LOD10 (38-m) mesh made from CDED1 0.75-arcsec data, a new landclass file, and accurate placements of lakes, rivers, streams, and roads. Also includes the glaciers of the Monarch Mt. Icefield and several forestry roads and clearcuts along the side valleys. Made with Ground2K4 based on Landsat 7 ETM+ satellite imagery.

| Namibia, Southwestern Africa |
|
File Description:
Replacement landclass file for all of Namibia and parts of western Botswana (S15-30 E11-25). Based on the new Global Land Cover 2000 Project data, this landclass file is still quite basic but better (I believe) than the FS original. In addition, I used Ground2K4 to more accurately represent natural and man-made features in five areas throughout the country, including Windhoek, Swakopmund/Walvis Bay, and the Fish River Canyon. Meant to be used with my Namibia LOD9 add-on mesh series. Landclass source files are included.

| Astrakhan City topology and autogen |
|

File Description:
I'm pleased to introduce you the project of topology and autogen of Astrakhan city, Russia, version 1.0b. The project is for MS Flight Simulator 2004.
This projects changes the default autogen of the city and its neighborhood, that doesn't correspond to the real city. Also it adds missing rivers, islands, roads, railroads, and bridges in the vicinity of the city and Astrakhan aerodrome (URWA) and removes non-existent bridges across the Volga river.
This scenery is not professional since I designed it to my own cheek in Ground2K4 to replace the default terrible scenery and make my flights to homeland more comfortable. That's why it is probable, that you can face some challenges (although, I didn't see any problems yet). The project has several disadvantages: all bridges are autogen, so they don't look very similar to real ones (but they are better, that their absence and presence of several non-existent :) ); no autogen on added islands (although the autogen option for them is set on in Ground2K4), I will continue to work on it; rivers that fall into the Volga river have the default shoreline visible at theirs mouths (it's possible to remove it, but only on the square of big area, in that case the river-land transition doesn't look real).
Overall, this project is more for IFR flights, than VFR. But, again, even for VFR flights it's much better than the default crap (imho!).

| US North Cascades Mountains and Northwest Washington Coast |
|
File Description:
The files in this package completely replace the FS default landscape of the North Cascades Mountains and coastal areas of northwestern Washington State. Between Bellingham and Arlington (N-S), Orcas Island and Lake Chelan (W-E) you can now enjoy your VFR flights with accurate locations of coastlines, lakes, rivers, streams, roads, railroads, and power lines, as well as land use type (landclass) and terrain (add-on mesh). Also added are the larger glaciers of the majestic North Cascades volcanoes and peaks as well as several forestry roads and clearcuts outside the National Park and Wilderness areas. Made mostly with Christian Fumey's "Ground2K4" and Jim Keir's "Slartibartfast". Fully compatible with the recent freeware LOD10 add-on meshes of the western US. Mesh and landclass files will work in FS2002 but not the special scenery enhancements.

| The Victoria Falls of the Zambezi River, Zambia/Zimbabwe |
|
File Description:
One of the main landmarks of Africa, the spectacular Victoria Falls of the Zambezi River are missing in out-of-the-box FS. With a local SRTM LOD9 mesh as a base (included) and the help of satellite imagery, maps, Ground2K4, and GMax, we did our best to model a realistic representation of the falls, the river, and the gorge, complete with custom waterfall and spray effects. The portion of the Zambezi covered in this project extends from E25 to E26.5 (more than 100km), with the falls at its center. Also included is a replacement landclass file for an area of about 20km on either side of the Zambezi River and an optional AI boat (by Lynn and Bill Lyons) cruising on the Zambezi above the falls. Tested with FS2004 only but most scenery enhancements (not the AI boat) should work just as well in FS2002.
