looking for a URL for BirdsEyeView scenery

Other than www.fltsim-bevs.com, which is a deadend to a bunch of Google-type URL listings, does anyone know of a working URL to BirdsEyeView.

It appears that the organization in question is now defunct.  :-/

He is clearly asking about a forum, not where to purchase it.  ::)

Just got an email from the vendor from whom I purchased the BirdsEyeView download and, while they're not confirming the outfit's no longer in business, they are admitting that support is 'sparse'.

I had BEV textures...........until I discovered how much better Ground Invironment is, that being said I keep seeing guys using VOZ textures which look outstanding........and free!  http://www.vistaoz.org/media.html

Those VOZ textures look good - too bad they're confined to Australia.

VOZ textures were designed for 'down under' but apparently they function well and look good anywhere in the world, I think there is an option in the configurator to use the textures globally........as for BEV, it has been a while since I used them and I honestly dont remember anything about the install. If I hadnt already dropped my cash on Ground Environment then I'd be all over VOZ, and my suggestion is take your lumps on the $12 for BEV(like I did ::)) and try out VOZ

Installing a VOZ regional texture set will activate those textures globally, and it usually looks pretty good anywhere if you activate the North or Southeast set.
