File Name: Glenelg, South Australia (Near YPAD) File Submitter: skyflyer File Submitted: 09 Jan 2013 File Category: DSF Scenery Packages X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 10 Glenelg, South Australia Photo Scenery (near YPAD) ISDG (International Scenery Development Group) v1.1 It is hard to take off or land at YPAD without seeing the cosmopolitan buzz of Glenelg, its Marina and beachfront. Here is a 15cm/pixel orthophoto of this area, SW of YPAD. This has been designed as a further enhancement of YPAD from our recent package: YPAD Adelaide Airport Photoreal (XP10) 1.1 System Requirements: X Plane 10.20 or better (64 bit recommended). a modern video card, minimum 512Mb of VRAM, but with YPAD package also loaded I would suggest a 1GB VRAM minimum, with settings on "Very High" with compression. Essential Libraries: •OpenSceneryX •RuScenery.zip •Flags of the World UPDATE v1.1 January 28 2013 • 3d objects added: - Big thanks to Andyrooc for his custom made Glenelg Jetty and Stamford Grand, especially for this package. _ Big thanks to Ropeless for creating the Norfolk Island Pines and other trees, essential for Glenelg! – Aussie flags added to pier – other objects added from OpensceneryX and ruscenery all are required (except for OpensceneryX which has a placeholder) or this package will crash X-plane!

These are converts from AussiePak1 which were toned down, but could use some better lighting. - Lost the edge grass facade functionality in the 10.20 betas.
