Simworld....My Attempt

Postby Mike.. » Sun Sep 02, 2007 10:25 pm

So I thought to myself, why not start from the default Airport for flying and go from there? So I took these over KSEA. As I wasn't quite sure what you may want out of the shot(s) so I took a couple at different times of day in the same area. I also played with the weather a bit. I had a clear day shot but the image got corrupted. The scenery is Ultimate Terrain USA over Seattle, WA. Also used was Flight Environment. I was quite pleased with the moons reflection in the night shot I provided. The shots were taken give or take at an altitude of around 28-30 thousand feet from my POSKY 737-800. It has no virtual cockpit so this works out well so as not to include an AC in the shots. They may not be Simworld material, but I do enjoy a theme I can apply myself to versus just posting shots to post them. Comments welcome and I hope you like them.

Compression really took it's toll on these. I kept the originals though if anybody wants to see them.

I think the first is perfect for starting us off in Simworld. The others are somewhat dark, but starting with KSEA is a natural. Nicely done.  :) P.S. Please create a clickable thumbnail 110 x 110 of shot #1 and post it here. Ask if you're not sure how.  :)

Ya got me. I don't know how. Never did a thumbnail before. The sooner I know how, the faster I'll set pic 1 up for you Clipper! Thanks! BTW. So I know for my next scenery shot, Your looking for more or less daytime shots for Simworld? If so that will keep me from wasting my time on other times of day and can start bouncing around the US taking shots. I don't have any mesh for Europe yet. Just UT USA, Canada, and Alaska for now. But thats plenty of ground for me to cover ;).

Not exclusively day shots, but if you shoot at dawn, dusk or night, the scenery should be very visible. Vegas at dawn might work for example... :)

Nice angle, and would have been a great shot, but that compression has killed it!! What program are you using to save you jpgs?
