Hi All, For my own amusement, I generated some scenery for Scotland using the GSHHS coastline and OpenStreetMap for roads. Scotland greatly benefits from using GSHHS coastline, as the VMAP0 data doesn't include many of the small islands on the west coast. There are sufficiently few roads that the OSM dataset works quite well also - you can even see some roundabouts!
For those who might be interested in doing some flying in Scotland, it is available here: http://flightgear.mxchange.org/stuart/scotland.tar.gz (35MB) Many thanks to Roland Haeder for hosting it. Note that the scenery package is only the "Terrain" part, and doesn't include any Objects. It should be uncompressed into the "Terrain" sub-directory of your $FG_SCENERY (e.g. data/Scenery). As always, objects should be downloaded from http://scenemodels.flightgear.org/. For those unfamiliar with Scotland, there is a small suggested flight around my home city of Edinburgh here: As suggested flight for those who have downloaded both the scenery and objects is this: http://wiki.flightgear.org/flightgear_wiki/index.php?title=Suggested_Flights#Scotland_-_Edinburgh_to_Dundee I'd also highly recommend taking off from Oban and As suggested flight for those who have downloaded both the scenery and objects is this: flying in the mountains in a fast military jet. After all, that's what the RAF do! The fact that I was able to generate scenery using TerraGear "for amusement" is a testament to the effort that the Custom Scenery team (http://www.custom-scenery.org/) have made to make TerraGear easier to use. Many thanks to Martin and Ralf for their work. -Stuart __________________________________________________________ Sent from Yahoo! Mail.
