This is a basic upgrade to default NZMO Te Anau Airport-Manapouri ,NZMC Mountcook airport,NZMF milford sound, NZCI chatham island airport from fs-creations.org which is design to merge objects with FTX orbx NZSI objects and airport scenery addons, also extra objects from my payware scenerys HamiltonX and TaupoX have been added to enhance the airport if you have these two Addons from my shop the objects will show up automatic in the scenerys if you have them both active in scenery manager library .
both low cost scenery at $9.95 usd with high detail 3d terminals and at standards you will love ,be sure to visit FS-creations.org for more info ..

remove any older scenerys for these airports ,including the first versions i released for VLC ,no uninstall of the ftx NZSI is needed as its used with my higher detailed buildings "Merged objects "




this is only for use with FTX Orbx NZSI scenery addon

Download is available on my Freeware pages HERE!!!!!!!
enjoy

I can almost hear someone say MAA MAA MAA Manapouri

The turn around hear is great

Many hours required to practice a Vulcan into this iconic spot , Thats more like the Milford Sound I no

Clean Green Ian they call me , you won't catch a ciggy in my mouth but a smokey Vulcan ... Ripper , well to picturest Milford , sky is Blue , Trees are Green

So is NZSI going to be the way were heading with scenery?

Nice to see I'm not the only one who flys the vulcan into small arifields

Gav , these airport scenerys really enchance NZSI , Just what we needed to fix many airport into a more realistic feel and have orbx fill in the gaps
No points guessing were we are here

As 'Goose' would say to 'Mav' , watch the hills , watch the hills

Time to buzz the Cook , No 'Mav' this is not a good idea

Lovely place to land into with your private jet

No not really kinda stuck between supporting my main customers wishes , making the scenery compatible as most seem to have jumped ship at the better looking landclass , cant blame them really and there is no way im going to waste my time building all these airports not to get used ,to bad not every effort was made to make VLC texture sets before this FTX NZSI release ..

I will continue just to knock out airports for both platforms which is simple enough just a hassle redoing what you think you did ages ago again ,North Island will be cool

Thanks Mike!

Flt Lt Martin Withers , Operation Black Buck 1982 .. Tume to kick the argies off the Falklands and attack the Chatham Is

But hell , many interesting moments during those Missions , wonder if Peter Jackson would hire a Vulcan for a movie about that very mission

Chatham Islands as the Falkland Islands and Chatham airfield as Port Stanley airfield now that would be great , they would have to base the Vulcan at NZCH

and they may have to rebuild Chatham airfield to look the part , course Mike may need to again rebuild a model to suit , just to blow up tho

And off course revert back to the true airfield when Sir Peter has completed the movie , cr@p surprised the Australians have not grabbed him as there own

Looking brilliant, Mike. Amazing to see the difference a bit of reality makes.



Not likely -- nobody can use 'FTX' elements in any scenery except Orbx themselves, so I don't think that anybody here will be specifically making scenery for FTX, unless they are doing it for Orbx only. However compatibility is important, otherwise the NZ simming user base will end up fragmented.

Thanks, Mike - I really appreciate all your sceneries - and I'm glad that I can keep using them even though I've gone over to "the dark side"

I agree, I haven't purchased NZSI yet but it seems so far most people are very happy with their ORBX installation. Not to sure if its a clear cut decision but it would be easier to mainly support one of the landclass/meshs. Maybee

Nice shots Ian, looks like you need a supporting harrier thou.

Well for Sir Peter new Falklands War project we have an ex-Malvinas Harrier in Ashburton

Very Cool airports...love the smoke coming from chimneys and the Intercity buses and of course the Holden’s, as I drive one myself. Sshhh you Ford fans. I was once one, owned an XW Falcon, 302 Windsor, 3 stage auto, plush velvet seats. Wish I still had it!
As a newbie Flight simmer I have to admit that I will be looking more towards ORBX's terrain's NZSI with integration from others that support it (South Is). creator2003's airports being what I mean. That’s not to say that I was not impressed with other developer’s scenery. I'm just a believer of "The Fewer the Better". As far as scenery is concerned anyway! Aircraft is a different matter.

One thing I am not overly impressed about with NZSI scenery (hope it’s ok saying this) is the shoreline, lakes and rivers. Needs more detail! Yes? That's something I would pay for from a developer.
Few shots of my flight from NZMC to NZMF after installing creator2003's airports. Remember newbie flyer here. Don't know how you landed that Jet there Ian, what a Stupid place to put an airport. I though well I am not going to dive bomb land the thing, so headed out to sea and flew up the river to the airfield...Still don't know how I managed to overshoot the runway and crash the thing, will have to practice that one. Clear sky's and No wind even.





Hope I'm not comming across as a complete dick with my posts. Never really been a forum user.

Sinz , Most look at my great writings and say WOW .... now what did he say or whats the meaning ... so you should fine , your in great company .

Good on yer, Ian ... I'm glad you haven't taken offense ... another couple of years, Sinz, and your posting count may approach IW's

Id say pick whats best for you ,i like what looks good to my eyes ,runs fine on my PC and is easy on my pockets ,ongoing development is a must with some good fair support .

Offensive , chezzz a Vulcan man like yourself

Some how I doubt that very much... VLC delevolper Ian? Still looking for an answer on what others think Of he Shorelines of NZSI. Anyone else in agreement?

Sinz

You may want to check the latest post shortly in scenery .

I doubt I will even catch your posts Adamski let alone IW's

Sinz

I think they are ok and look better then default ,i havent fully done a tour over of every area but i feel the textures have done more for rivers, lakes and coastlines than anything else ive seen or used for NZ so far to date ,everything outside of the airport is suppose to be viewed at 1000ft or so ,lower level may take abit of the realism out around coast and other parts but overall not bad .

Sorry Newbie Simmer,
FSX astounded me. Saw MS Flight and thought graphics were incredible, but I’m not looking for a Flying Game I like the Simulator experience better. Have MSFS 98 but it never really did go well on that 486 of mine…and then got lost in other things. So very New Simmer to FSX and the first thing I started to do was look at scenery. As I live in the Naki first port of call was scenery for it. Low and behold I found Godzone Taranaki. Hate to say it but all scenery will be compared to what I saw after install of their ok “photorealistic scenery” but you can’t tell me that It’s impossible to improve the shoreline a little in Autogen scenery.
MS Autogen scenery to Godzone scenery.



Could ORBX have gone a little further with the shorline? I think so.

Sinz

Mike you are King bro thanx heaps


Personally I don't have an issue with them, a few broken rivers here and there but nothing worth worrying about. Honestly if ORBX was a Kiwi outfit I don't think we would be as nit picky do you think?. It's the best NZ that has been on offer yet.

@ SINZ What you are comparing is photo real scenery and default , ORBX has not touched the North Island as yet , the coast line effects in photo real based on your screen is many many years old .


Yes i would have been 'nit picky' always have been because it has been my job for the last ten 'PLUS' years .

mmm I could really dig into that response but I wont

Come on why not ! bring it on .

Cheers also at flightsim.com for download

thankyou for your efforts mike

much better than the orbx stuff
