Yeah this will be a great compliment for the ole trans Alpine route to Christchurch- haven't flown that one in ages.

Awesome scenery thanks Lawrie. Just downloaded a few more of yours and installed.
I do seem to be missing the textures at the base of the tower. Can you tell me which package these are in?
Many thanks.

You missed this at the beginning of the "Pre-Install" section in the "read-me"...............

You will need the EZ Scenery Basic Library installed in your "Static Objects Library", which is freely available from Abacus Publishing at the following link.............

http://www.abacuspub.com/pub/AbacusEZLibraries.exe (8mb).

The texture below the tower is from the EZ Scenery basic libraries from ABACUS.

Well I have to admit embarrassment here as it was not actually your scenery I downloaded...it was someone else's that appeared in the AVSIM library just above yours. The installation was very similar and having done several that night it must have slipped into the oops category. My apologies.
I have since installed yours and it works fine.
Just for your info Lawrie sitting in front of the terminal looking directly at it in the default Cessna, I was getting 9 to 10 FPS. Removing the chain link fence from around the terminal increased this to 20 to 22 FPS. Might I suggest that you include in your installation instructions a comment regarding the fencing and that this can lower frame rates considerably and mention the files that need to be removed for those with low to mid end systems. I have improved all of your sceneries FPS (that have chain link fences) by at least 10 FPS. This might save considerable correspondence and also greatly enhance the usabilty of your wonderful packages for all users.
Cheers
Steve

Hi Nick.

Commercial Traffic is from PAI (Project-AI), GA traffic is courtesy of GNZLAP (Great New Zealand Light AI Project).
The rest of the traffic is my own custom AI. The Lifeflight NZ and NZPost aircraft are from my NZ Retro-AI Project Part-2, with custom flightplans, and the Mt Cook Airlines DC-3 is to be part of the next Retro-AI Part 3 release, and some of the other GA traffic you see down by the hanger row, is a custom file using the Default FS9 AI light aircraft, that i only use for testing purposes.

Cool thanks for that since a replacment of the hard drive a couple of days ago, I havent got my FS9 back to its former glory and this will help alot.

Thanks again,
Nick
