This can only be the work of some diabolical madman(1)!

I've been fooling around with placing "things".

I took the "Devils Tower" add-on for FS9, decompiled the .bgl,  created an XML file, set the Lat/Long, and recompiled.  Then I took the example "effect" in the FSX SDK and set the Lat/Long and altitude in the example .XML, and compiled it, then added it into my add-on scenery "scenery" folder. :)

For giggles, I also got out a good map of the town I live in, carefully measured out the Lat/Long of my house, and did the same for the "Horton Tower" add-on, and placed it at my houses cordinates.  The neighbors are positively gealous.  Irked even.  But at least I can bar the door and dump boiling marmalade on them when they gather outside to protest.  :D ;D :D ;D

And Governor Jindhal said it was a waste of money to study volcanoes. ;)

Doesn't he look the fool now. :D


Very cool by the way. 8-)

Hmmmm... Maybe I should relocate that volcano a bit more to the south and a east....

Where can I get the DT add-on? I wanted something better after I saw the default. It hardly looks like anything compared to that which you show...
