No, I'm interested in new features regarding some engine parameters we talked about with Austin, as well as other things ... not really ground textures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I have listed it some time ago here Hi, Andras, I do remember this post, but to confirm, you plan to have all listed coverage complete by the date specified, or is this going to be rolling out in phases? Really looking forward to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hueyman Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) Then you are correct in saying, 10.25 is not so much for you (but neither would it hurt).Probably, but will give it a try for sure ;-) Edited October 5, 2013 by Hueyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpilotx Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I am planning to release it all at once (more or less ... I hope more) .... at least thats my current plan.But neither is this a small/easy thing - as you can imagine - which includes many hundred hours of computation time and also managing the roll out itself is not simple (bringing 60-80 Gbytes on the net is still not a trivial task). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marty2756 Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Can I ask for South America ? Gracias Carlos Alpilotx: I know it won't be in the next update South America... but would it be possible to do in the future ? is it a matter of work or you don't have the 'source' data to do it?

It hasn't to be necessary high-resolution, but it would be very cool having scenerys when flying there (for example for flights beetween Anchorage and Europe). Thanks and cheersF.

alpilotx Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) About South America: well, there are two important aspects here.First, it adds to the already extreme amount of scenery I try to distribute here (remember, that the announced coverage will already wigh in around 60-80 Gbytes!) ... South America would for sure add another 20-40 Gbytes.Second, yes, there is a data "problem" with South America : I do not have higher resolution, good quality landclass data for that region (until now) ... only the - for now - standard 300m res data I use worldwide (where I have no better data). Whereas Europe/USA/Alaska/(and from now on) Canada do all have good, highres landclass data. Now, of course its possible to do the HD mesh with low res landclass data too, its just that it makes much much less nice difference (and improvements) there ... also the OSM data - until now - is not at a level like in the above regions (again, much, better, etc. OSM data also helps to improve things).For this reason, I would NOT promise anything about South America. BUT, this doesn't mean that - like always - I don't continue to look for possible improvements! And when I find something which is worth the efforts, I will let you know (but at least until now, there is nothing to "talk" about) ...

Thanks and cheersF.We do already go up to over 70N (Norway is completely covered and Alsaka too). This will be the case with my HD Mesh Scenery v2 too ... only in Canada I might be a bit selective, as there is a wast, extensive area north of 60N, which has not so much details and wouldn't profit much from HD Mesh. And about polar regions, no, I don#t have to extend up there ... and also the scenery engine - using a classic "WGS84 Geographic Lat/Lon" - would have quite some trouble the closer you come to the poles (which you can easily imagine, if you know a little bit about projection systems ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so it has to do with the projection systems, yes, this is understandable now... In fact X-Plane should be able to deal with the polar-projection-grid to show it at the right place, perhaps this will be once possible, would be nice ;-) Edited October 5, 2013 by frankbyte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpilotx Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Hi John ... here I have a first teaser for you from Seattle (disclaimer: it might look like this later or not) ... the magic with the new urban textures is especially tweaked for the "distant view" which now looks much better than before. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
