| 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)

File Description:
The North American B-45 Tornado was one of the most important American aircraft of the early Cold War period, and one of the least remembered today. It was the first bomber-sized jet bomber in service anywhere in the world, first jet to drop a live atomic bomb, first jet to cross the North Pacific non-stop (Alaska to Japan,) first jet to fly the North Atlantic (with stops), NATO forces’ first and for some time only nuclear deterrent, first reconnaissance plane to fly deep penetration missions over North Korea, the People’s Republic of China, and the Soviet Union, and first aircraft to routinely use in-flight refueling on combat missions. The package includes twenty models and three dozen authentic skins depicting every major variant and numerous minor and sub-variants as they appeared throughout the type’s service life. A detailed manual explains some of the type’s unique operational procedures. Mostly by David Wooster with some help and skins painted by Mick.

| St. Paul Downtown Holman Field |
|
File Description:
St. Paul Downtown Airport is located only five minutes from the business center of St. Paul. St. Paul Downtown Airport has been developed to meet the needs of corporate and business aviation. With a 6,711 ft. runway, instrument landing system, FAA control tower, restaurant and catering facilities, and several commercial fixed base operators providing a full range of services, St. Paul Downtown Airport is fully suited for business and corporate users. Originally created for use in FS2002 for St. Paul based St. Paul Airlines (VA), this KSTP scenery also works great in FS9. All the hangars and buildings are custom tailored to suit St. Paul Airlines' services but the main passenger terminal stands as in the real life with photoreal textures. Hope you enjoy this scenery.

| Groundhandling gauges, V3.2 |
|
File Description:
This archive contains version 3.2 of my "groundhandling"
gauges, and work for both FS2002 AND FS2004. Like: automated
pushback with conversation sounds, a Taxispeed controller using
throttle AND brake settings, an arming switch that activates Taxispeed
after a landing (incl. setting flaps, spoilers, autobrakes Off), Brakes sound,
etc....
It can be added to any FS2002/FS2004 aircraft panel, including
aircraft with Magneto-based engines (which was a major problem in the
previous versions).
Fully documented, including extensive installation and upgrade
instructions. It's a complete package (including a solution
for playing "xml sounds" in FS2004) in one .cab file, and does not require
any other addons, like FSsound or FSUIPC.
V3.2 solves 2 issues with using the Brakes. See included file
"Upgrade V3.1 to V3.2 . txt".
