These were done not so much for the plane although the Aerosoft A-10 is really nice but to show some of the new ground textures from Ground Environment.

These were taken before the final update but still show IMHO how outstanding these textures are for the Bryce Canyon area.

Let's see what you guys think.

Very nice shots again sir....I might just have to get those textures they really look nice IMO.

Excellent use of GE Micheal...I love it...the latest update is I think 1.0.4

[SteveK]

Very nice plane, very nice ground textures, and excellent screenshots Michael, as always.

Is that still FSGenisis terrain you're using?

Cheers,

Steve.

Thanks Ramsa, looks pretty good...please post more  :D

I can't really see the difference between these and Lennarts though... maybe in rural and urban areas the GE textures are more noticeably realistic? And how do they look in direct sunlight, I wonder...

Thanks,

I was interested to see what people thought of the textures.

1) The problem Krigl that I see with Lennart's excellent textures is that they were only developed for Europe #1 and specifically for Northern Europe and really don't fit in the US. and many other places.

2) Steve I use Realscene by Eddie Denny for the US and FsGenesis for most of the rest of the world

3) As a tester for GE I am aware of all the updates.

Hmm.... Does this mean that Lennart's are better than GE for Europe? I spend most of my time in Europe, so perhaps GE isn't so good for me... ?? Thanks for the answer by the way!

Krigl,

No I didn't mean to say that Lennart's are better or worse I meant to say that Lennart's were meant for only one part of the world .

Plus his textures do not realign autogen or deal with forests in the same way as GE.

If you use Lennart's textures than the whole of FS will look like Northern Europe except those areas that he does not cover which will use default.

With GE you get to see each part of the world as being different.

Thanks Ramsa.... I think I'm going to get the textures.... thanks for your time!

I prefer GE because the textures look great from all levels of flight...since I fly both GA and Commercial...I like the overall feel ofthe textures

[Tom_M]
