Horizon Simulation - FSX scenery for England!
Friday, 16 February 2007
Horizon Simulations

Horizon Simulation Announces the Release of VFR Photographic Scenery Generation X – The Next Generation of Real World Sceneries for Microsoft Flight Simulator X.

Designed specifically for use with Microsoft FSX, VFR Generation X provides flight simmers with the opportunity to fly over highly realistic and recognisable scenery of England & Wales. Unsurpassed detail and clarity allows you to fly lower and faster than ever before, whilst significant performance enhancements mean that the scenery stays sharp and in focus throughout your simulated flight.

Using real aerial photography for scenery means that the views you see from your virtual cockpit are transformed into the real thing - you literally see exactly what the pilots of the survey aircraft saw when they acquired the aerial photography.

VFR Generation X gives you 16 x more detail in both the terrain and photographic scenery than the original version designed for FS2002/FS2004, meaning that you can fly as low as 500-600 ft and still see pin-sharp photographic scenery – you can even make out white lines painted on the roads!

Available as a series of 3 volumes covering England & Wales, VFR Generation X gives you unsurpassed detail from Lands End to the Scottish border. Explore England & Wales, go sight-seeing, rehearse flights, practice VFR navigation techniques (using real aeronautical charts), or simply enjoy spectacular views from your virtual cockpit...

Aerosoft releases Budapest 2007
Saturday, 18 November 2006

Budapest 2007

Aerosoft is happy to announce the release of Budapest 2007. This high-end scenery of Ferihegy International Airport, created by Andras Kozma (well known for several award winning sceneries) is the latest in their "Mega Airport" series.

Budapest is the capital of Hungary and one of the oldest cities in Central Europe. It’s history is rich and varied, with many highlights and several very sad periods. With Hungary being the odd one out in the Soviet Block (it had more freedom then the other Eastern European states) it was able to recover from the devastation of the last part of World War II with much more style and feeling for its history then most other cities in Eastern Europe. As the thousands of tourists can testify to, it is a city that certainly deserves a visit.

The Budapest main airport, Ferihegy International Airport is the most important airport in Hungary and has handled over 8 million passengers last year. Large enough to handle B747 (and most likely the A380) it has connections to most European airports and has recently seen a big increase in low costs airline flights. Malév Hungarian Airlines is the main Hungarian airline and it has its home base at Ferihegy. Check out all features and screenshots of this product at Aerosoft's website.

Cloud9 strikes with two FSX products!
Sunday, 29 October 2006
Cloud9

Cloud9 has been developing two new products, fully compatible with FSX: Orlando Intl. (KMCO) scenery and XClass Europe.

The cloud9 Xclass Europe improves in a considerable way the terrain of all of Europe, increasing the precision of how the terrains are visualised. The standard large, and even, areas of Flight Simulator X scenery are modified and are represented in greater detail. Furthermore, special terrain zones have also been added (e.g. industrial areas or saline areas along the coast lines) which normally aren't represented in the standard FSX scenery. With cloud9 Xclass improved designs have been applied accurately on more than 150.000 urban areas of Europe including towns with only a squared kilometre area. This allows to carryout much more accurate and realistic VFR flights.

The Orlando International Airport scenery for FS2004/FSX is currently in development by cloud9. It is modelled based on real ground and in-flight pictures, and features photographic textures; high-detail runways, taxiways and aprons; special effects and awesome night textures. The developer claims there's little FPS impact and that the scenery blends well with its surroundings. Check out a preview screenshot and read more about this scenery at cloud9's website.
