Hi and welcome to Simviation.
Since you are new here, you might not have seen everything around. I strongly advise you to take a deep look into the sticky topics, mainly the one titled "been under a different rock". You'll find the info you need there.

if it is terrain mesh that you are looking for, then look no further than http://simviation.com/1/fs2004terrainmesh   it contains everything you need.

If you want a complete set of mesh, textures, sky, water... dig around in the File Library for HOWARDS MIX The FSX Experience Revised.

While both of these are decent, I would suggest saving up your allowance money from cutting the grass this summer, or your pay checks, for REX2004 - Ultimate Terrain US, CANADA/ALASKA, EUROPE - and Ground Environment Pro.    with these 3, your FS9 will **EXPLODE** with realism.  .... ok, you will also need more AI, but someone else will have to point you to that as I can never get WOAI world of ai to work correctly on my machine.

if you want "scenery" (buildings, trees, and the sort) then look at http://www.freewarescenery.com/fs2004.html  it is basically a list of every scenery that AVSIM has.

or, you could sit for a few hours and find something better here in the FS2004 SCENERY area.... http://simviation.com/1/browse-Scenery-39-0 (at least we have pictures :P )



as for my ai, i downloaded the WOAI installer, and a couple WOAI packages, but yet i run the installer and load the package into it, but i dont see any difference in the sim.     Ultimately what I want, is every airport to have at least 5-10 waiting to takeoff, and a line of about 10 on final.   

Night time around Major airports KATL, KLGA, KJFK, DFW, SFO, LAX.... are all dead in the sim, when in real life those airports never sleep. There are still flights in and out even at 3:00am (local to each airport).  I want to see movement in the night.

yeah i know its nothing more than making flight plans for those airports to operate at that time of night, and I do have to the software to do that.... its just the lazy jerk in me would have thought that someone (MACROCRAP .. microsoft) would have done their homework and made airports a bit more like their real world counterparts.  Actual flight times do not have to be spot on as RL flight plans change, but come on Microsoft, if you know that KLAX, DFW, JFK have flights all night long, put it in the sim.

Hi Capt Propwash
    Thanks for the short cuts very nice scenery, Yes pictures make a difference and thanks again.
Do you have traffictoolbox SDK set up on your fs9? if so do you have the tools\traffic toolbox\setting 
check for both IFR AND vfr  THAT WILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENT. 
IF YOU DON'T HAVE traffictoolbox GO HERE for traffictoolbox_sdk_setup.exe

    You did not say if you were using FS9 OR FS10.
IF are using fs9 then traffictoolbox_sdk_setup.exe
Is a way to get inside the sim and see what is happing.

If any one would like to have some Photoreal Ground and
Vegetation Texture. try those

javascript:openWindow('download-file?file=SilverWings.zip', 800, 400)
