NZFF

Hi Greg I've replied to your email, but I'll expand on it here. The image is a GeoTif, it just doesn't know which projection. When you load it into Global Mapper, you need to tell GM that its NZTM projection. Then reproject it to WGS84. To overcome the problem of losing the georeferencing when you edit the image, export it with 'Generate TFW file' selected. This means that you can edit the image in whatever you use to colour-correct etc, then reload into GM for re-exporting. It'll automatically pick up the referencing from the TFW file. The INF file you've used...

Man I never even knew this site existed :blink: But I do now! Thanks!

It was a ripper of a handbag,It made enough money for me to get a new computer.wrong place wrong time

Just got my Welly! Don't know why it takes so long to get things from there to here in Florida, but it does. Still, loaded it up, added the Beehive as noted elsewhere on here, and took 'er for a spin. Wow... Um-- Wow... Was just there about a month ago, and now it's like I never left. Beautiful job, Robin!

Yes, it's designed for fS2004.

...so Robin, any chance of some preview screenies?

Fantastic screenshot, one of the best I have seen :clap: What model Blackbird is that? The payware one from Justflight?

Just the normal method I think. Start FS, choose plane, airport click start and away i go. Here's a 30 sec vid of it working ok with ActiGate modules deleted... Just under 3 meg, zipped avi.

Can we remove actigate entirely (delete the atigate.ini and .dll from the Modules folder)? My gates work fine but I wonder if it has something to do with not being able to load up at a gate in a heavier plane. Unticking it in modules doesn't work, it gets re-ticked on restatrt. edit: I deleted them, and now can load up at a gate in something bigger than a 1900D YAY

Once again,.............................Craig to the rescue :P THank you Craig :D Lawrie.

Howdy neighbor. I told you you'd Love it :wub: A real Winner eh :clap: New Zealand has got to be the best looking place in the world to fly around nowadays in FS. >nzflag< Lawrie. >nzflag<

Howdy Charl, Yeah, that was a real downer. <_< Best NZ thermals ever were those produced by the Cross-Country Soaring crowd and released to coincide with this year's International Championships down Omarama way. Now they were gnarley (1 hour 55 min. aloft). :thumbup: EDIT: For anyone interested in trying some Southern Alps Gliding, go to: In order to use this, you will also need to download the latest version of Cross-Country Soaring available from:

omg... that would be like leaving the Sky Tower out of any Auckland Scenery!! Not quite, the beehive is surrounded by about 8 buildings which are bigger, and none of them made it into the scenery either -- the Sky Tower is TALL. It stands out when you fly around. The beehive doesn't.

just be aware that resaving the already-compressed bitmap will degrade it a bit i never knew that you do learn something new everyday thanx sign looks good dude

Yep, your right Charl. Its real strange approaching Welly and not seeing that sea climb uphill after seeing it for so long (gone, and definately forgotten now) :P And dont you just love those animated jetways :D Hmmmmm,.................... might try the 6-pack thing,................. although in my case, i think she would prefer few bottles of Wine. Hic' :blink: Lawrie.

If it's between Ham or Gisborne then I vote Gisborne. It is a very scenic part of NZ that is out on it's own,alot of people will only get to see it in FS as it's not on the way to anywhere else. It's so rugged around east cape that aircraft that go down often are never found, a bit like Fiordland. The township is picturesque with the rivers and bridges and the port and that piece of coastline around Eastcape is one of the best scenic drives in NZ.

Like most of the old Godzone scenery, this was designed to match the NZ150 mesh, which was incorrectly placed. The scenery therefore isn't compatible with any of the current meshes, but I am in the process of (slowly) updating the old Godzone stuff as freeware. This may be the next releae, by popular demand...

Great news, hopefully more people will fly virtually around my neck of the woods :D . Alex

I agree you should really work the local meshes in you scenery if not just to promote the scenery overseas, I think it is standardly expected that meshes are part of scenery packages at least on the local level. I havent the money to spend on the red baron stuff so I just go with what I have and be thankfull for it. The standard of your scenery is terrific I cant wait for the Wellington stuff, and I appreciate how hard it must be to develop (especially with the pressures of payware), but it would be cool if the meshes around the effected scenery area are worked to look a bit better(I know...
