Good job Robin, I missed the church in FS9! But: where is the dog ;-)? Maybe it´s another cause to change to FSX. I´m looking forward to fly there and can remember the great days at Lake Tekapo in january?
Greetings from summer to winter-wonderland.

Wow Robin, those look really good - realistic, detailed, etc.
Not much use for a flight sim except for a quick buzz in a heli or quick fly by in something small to take in the (superb) scenery.
Excellent work mate thumbup1.gif

Things like this church make a lot more sense in FSX, as they could be used in a mission -- without the missions in FS2004 something like this would be wasted on 95% of users. Not that I havea mission in mind, but the thought was there...
I haven't discounted the dog yet, either!

Neither. 2 problems with this old scenery, some of it was designed for FS2002, but mainly there is a placement problem -- since it was designed for the incorrectly-aligned NZ150 mesh, it doesn't work with today's meshes.

Some of the photoscenery areas have been redone, but not the airports or other areas with 3D models. When I looked at these old models, it was apparent that redoing them from scratch (including rephotographing textures) would be the only way to go.

However I may surprise you all some day with a new Cathedral Square....
