zOMFG!...

(btw...this is MegaScenery 2005 Vol. 4 Pacific Northwest...picked it up at MicroCenter yesterday)

Only 3 shots, compression raped the rest to the point where they aren't worth posting anymore :(...

compression did its work on these too :(

But anyway...this package is totally freakin' amazing! If you got 30 bucks right now, get your @$$ moving and get this thing! 8)

Hats off to the Aerosoft Aussies 8)

Zoinks! :o
I'd like to get that, but I know what'll happen... I'll wind up paying for global coverage before long. I still haven't DLd all the free SRTM mesh!
But, hmmm... maybe just one small area.... ;D

Real nice Jeff.

I bought it a while back while my machine was being upgraded!

After seeing those shots, I know what I am doing when I get home from work!!!

Thanks guys!

Yeah, this is a totally amazing package...!

Shame that they're not gonna do one for the Detroit area... ::)

And one more thing, I have read a few reviews, about how this thing is a systems hog, and lags the performance real bad...

...but I haven't experienced anything like that, the scenery loads as fast as, if not faster, than the default ones.

(I do get issues with the northern cali package, long loading times, and scenery gets really blury after a while...thats the only reason I'm having doubts about getting Southern Cali... :()

But anyway..they should really make a MegaScenery Greatlakes, or a MegaCity Detroit...I would love to just go around flying and try to find my house or my dad's car! 8)

blckhwk1, I doubt so.... what are your specs? The thing runs on my MX440 Built in graphics card pretty good, unless you have something from 2 years ago, it should run, its also heavy on hard drive space 10+ gigs Cheers, Gunny
