Excellent!  Now I guess I'll need that 4GB GTX 680 sooner than later.  ;-)

OK, looks cool...

 

I have three KSEA folders in custom scenery: KSEA Aircraft (an add on to put more static aircraft into KSEA) and the two supplied by Laminar, KSEA Demo Area and KSEA Demo Terrain.  I think I could figure this out but I would be interested in comments.

 

This add on has only one dsf tile (+47 -123); this dsf tile also shows up in the three other folders.  Is load order important ?  Would all four of these load in any order ?  Should the tile be removed from one or more of the other folders to avoid strange looking scenery ?

 

BTW, thanks Chris ! for some great looking scenery !

Load order is important. (The "Demo Terrain" will cease any further loading of scenery for the KSEA area).

 

Stick mine first. I don't have any weird exclusions in mine... so it should just lay down the orthos, suppress some silly-placed Autogen, and let the regular KSEA Demo airport come through.

 

You can probably just deactivate the  KSEA Demo Terrain if you have a full XP10 install. (Don't need the terrain since it's also included in the full DVDs install)

 

Play with it a bit till you get it right =) Should be straightforward to play with the order (theres only 3 combinations possible anyways heh)

Heh funny story how this happened. I saw a video here last week:

 

 

So I said "Hey, I should make a photoreal underlay, and get that guy to re-do his video". I noticed the lead-in light bridges and stuff, and said "I betcha XP10 with a photoreal underlay would look almost the exact same"... Hence this file.

 

Ive subsequently contacted the guy to re-do it as per my comment on his video.

Why is the simulator scenery always so bright green?
