Extra Tour Shots: Twilight Timaru

Another overload of screenies from my tour, this time around the Timeru area:

** 14 shots, 1.20mb **

1. Arrival to the area over the Opihi River


2. Towards the seafront centre of town


3. Overhead the port


4. Swinging back around the other way


5. Descending in to NZTU


6. Flaps down on finals


7. Landing on the piano keys


8. Parked up at the pump


9. A planespotters perspective


10. Taxiing back to the runway with a full tank


11. Airborne and heading for the hills


12. Flying past the airport at 2000 feet on departure to Tekapo


13. Off into the sun, following the Pareora River


14. Looking south at the Hunter Hills


Has a great atmosphere doesn't it? If you want the scenery, you can get the airport and photoreal under the file names ' city_of_timaru.zip' and 'timaru.zip' from AVsim.

Awesome pics mate - very nice

I have that airport and Timaru scenery too, I carried out the instructions in the City Scenery as far as removing some of the airport files, but I get white square pillars around the airport. I have a feeling it's due to me not having the Gerrish Grey Trees installed, which brings me to a question it that's the case ...

The read-me for the Gerrish trees v3 mentions finding and replacing up to 65 different textures, but the instructions are for FS2002. It seems a mammoth task and one I can't recall doing during my previous install when I had the files set up. I don't know if the effort would be worth it and wonder is there a FS2004 version available?

edit: Nevermind, I found all the files and deleted them and installed Gerrish's... no more white pillars and all looks awesome
