The wait is over, and after 3 months of work, the X-Plane 10 New Zealand Pro scenery is released! X-Plane 10 New Zealand Pro is a complete replacement scenery package for New Zealand (North and South island). It is a combination of two parts. An extremely high resolution base mesh (even a bit higher than the other HD Scenery Mesh regions) with updated (and more detailed) landclass data (riverbeds, mines and morains are entirely new - compared to default Global Scenery), very detailed road / railroad/ powerline vector, and highly accurate water data (you should find most of the relevant rivers / streams, tiny lakes, and more detailed coastlines). An additional overlay scenery, which adds treelines (this time they are "real", derived from GIS data) and tons of objects (mostly houses, but there are also barns, churches, substations, schools, hospitals, shelters - outside the area, which are filled in by XP10 autogen). This scenery is for X-Plane 10 only, and ideally, you should have X-Plane 10.20 Beta 5 or above (as it brings some art assets - textures - in its default set, which NZ Pro uses). But don't worry, if you have an earlier version of XP10, there is a "workaround" for you on the download page. Best of all - as always - this scenery is donationware! Which means, you can freely download and use it, and if you like, you might donate for it (and even then, you decide what its worth for you). The link below will bring you to the - obligatory - screenshots (lots of before-after shots included): https://picasaweb.go...alandProRELEASE And here you go to my website, where the download links and detailed instructions can be found: http://www.alpilotx....ew-zealand-pro/

Ah, yes, I forgot to put in the "Requirements" section on my site (now its there) ... indeed you should be careful with this one. If you already have problems with default Global Scenery, then this one will definitely NOT improve your situation ... Also, I highly recommend to use it with 64bit X-Plane (though, it works on 32bit too) and lots of RAM!

Thats YPAD, plus UrbanMAXX (which is awesome), plus SkyMAXX (which is VERY awesome - the correct skycolours are a HUGE benefit), and BeachMAX (which is also also awesome). Hats off to John for those replacement sky/water/beach/city textures. XP10 is certainly becoming breathtaking now! (FWIW, I have all the MAXX-series installed myself, and it makes XP10 look like a whole new simulator - no more drab!). - CK.

More update shots! the interior cabin is getting built now, with significant detail

And then run the partition on VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktops so you don't have to reboot.

Hahaha! Ok then: http://i.imgur.com/UyMNC.jpg Yeah this latest version of XPX really has me going crazy...... P.S. thats the new NZ package from Andras......

thanks anyway, just remember, typically, your responsiveness will be corelated to whether or not you have your Yaw Damper turned on. If you download the latest version here at x-pilot, you'll see that it actually has teh 767's OH panel as for the nav, you've actually pointed out a legitimate bug, i'll fix that soon
