Its availiable, go to news and click where it says to download.

EDIT: Im downloading now, but it seems as if I just got lucky, I am talking to jared and he gets an error and when I tried again I also got an error.  Hmmmm.....

I downloaded with no problems. This looks awesome. Thanks for the heads up!

I got two questions:

1- Is it only avalible for a limited time or does it only work for a limited time?

2- Do screenshots made with this go in the payware or freeware area?

To Answer your questions Aroder,
1) No its a complete product totally free, however it will only look right for the Summer.
2) That depends how long its out, if its only for a week say then yes it will.

I'm also getting the error, I think theres to many people trying to download it, but the bandwidth can't handle it.

The download works fine for me.

Thanks for the tip, downloaded it last night - looking forward to seeing the textures in action.

They must be feeling the pinch from VOZ, Silver Wings and the payware Ground Environment. All of them with great texture sets in one package, though VOZ is not complete yet...

I remember checking out FS Scene. They were flogging wealthy simmers 5 continents, each with 5 seasonal textures, each bought INDIVIDUALLY. I couldn't believe my eyes...25 seperate purchases, if you want the lot.

BirdsEyeView don't seem quite so greedy, but still I think the concept of textures by the season is on the way out....

Looking forward to that demo and comparing with my other stuff...

Installing now. Should fit in nicely with VOZ, as I don't like their summer textures. Far too deserty.

That's a darn good point. I've been using VOZ's 'spring' for my summers...
