How To Unravel The Disneyland Bracelets

MONTE ROSA

LYS

Some pictures of the scenery of Northern Italy made with FS Earth Tiles, with no work to improve the colors.

Venegono and I'm off to bet on Mount Rosa, after passing through Cerrione Biella. Below me the landscape real, where everything was very recognizable. You have to have the patience to go up to at least 1,500 feet AGL, because the lack dell'autogen do not hear anymore.

Look at pictures of beauty is really willing to put on his boots and take a good walk to Rifugio Quintino Sella or Mezzalama!

FS EARTH TILES

E 'network for many months, I had downloaded some time but then I never used. This weekend I made a commitment and I tried to understand the operation and in a few hours ... I made a scene "private" in northern Italy photorealism. I'm talking about

FS Earth Tiles , a program that does it all, download the images from Virtual Earth or from other servers, place the millimeter and converts any scenario, at resolutions not possible until recently, according to the language FS (2004 or X). And here we are today carried out a scenario with one meter resolution, where it is possible to recognize each house overflown.

course, are the limits, the more difficult to overcome is the construction of "automatic" autogen a decent, but reading some threads on specialized forums , it seems we're moving to the right way: you're learning how to make the 'autogen vector starting from the techniques underlying the implementation of GPS maps. If this happens, the creation of a photorealistic scene with buildings and trees represented in the right place would be much faster to implement, and would be the real future of flight simulation.

Here I leave you some links to explore the theme:

Here you can see pictures of the scenery created by me, not retracted with Photoshop or other artifice: it seems a good start to better understand how the program works!

Runner's Birthday Cake



I tried to do some flying with two monitors. It 's really a different look, the vision is wider and there is a greater feeling of being in the cockpit. Too bad that ... Vista once again shows less efficient than good old XP.
With XP it was possible to have the direct configuration of the use of double or triple monitor using ATI or Nvidia drivers, but both manufacturers have not updated the drivers for this feature in Vista and I tried if there was any ploy to circumvent the problem.
course the easiest is to spend and buy a pat € the Matrox TripleHead2Go (digital version, the analogy does not work on Vista). On the Internet, the alternative could be UltraMon which allows you to actually install and configure the span across two monitors, but not with FSX, or rather the working span on the 2D monitor, but not on the virtual cockpit and landscape (I think that part of the blame is to be assigned to directX). And then you just have to open two windows, each on a monitor, and try to match the images to give a feeling for enlarged view. Sure, it works, but every time you move the image realignment is a painstaking work.

ENLARGED VIEW THE TOUR CONTINUES IN GREECE

continues its tour greek. Do the stages in the early morning and it is difficult to see other aircraft and controllers on line. After I flew to Alexandroupolis Ioannina, in Epirus. The approach was very funny, between high mountains and visibility is variable. Then I got in the Peloponnese, landing in Kalamata, a city with a large sea port. Just behind the city there are mountains over 2500 meters high, and the procedure requires a large holding on the Messinian Gulf to dispose of the height. To be honest, half the time of the flight has been involved in approaching the bay, with wide turns before the final alignment with the track 34.
Finally, I flew to Kavala in northern Greece. This question was very nice, and thanks to the clear blue sky, I have seen the gulf of Athens, then the Chalkidiki peninsula, and finally, thanks to the VOR / DME approach runway 05, the island of Tasso. Also on this occasion, the old filmed the landing ... and shame, I realized that the passengers applauded the touchdown ... it was a school field trip?
