Ortho Scenery....v130

Postby Joby33y » Sat Oct 27, 2018 2:36 pm

Ortho for XP v 1.30 is now stable and running great, and it has now been modified to also allow Ortho scenery tiles to be compiled for Prepar3d in addition to XPlane. And wow is it great. I really like flying over the 'reaI' scenery...

How do we take the next step and allow this same functionality for FFS ? Is the scenery SDK (or some other quick approach) available ?

best,

I would much rather have Nick Hod's AeroScenery tool for this.

I would much rather have Macker's World Terrain tool for FIFS! It STREAMS the ortho tiles into the scenery "on the fly".

I like Hush's concept a lot, but not their subscription business model.

I guess that would be nice for those with high speed connections. Some of us are still on copper cable :-(
The other thing, I like to create my own scenery: (NOTE: still adding high rise buildings) Image

That is indeed looking fantastic. Thanks for sharing that one. PHNL ?

Yeah PHNL, built for AFS2 though.
Hopefully the developers of FIFS will give some indication on how they do it.
I then hope to convert and use in this in FIFS (housing, building and so forth)
