FSX world autogen textures upgrade (FREE)

(found in another forum - Simforums.com)

First: ANNOUNCEMENT

Then: RELEASE

From avsim: This package upgrades 522 world wide autogen building textures and changes the entire FSX world. The enhanced autogen has a much more robust and realistic look from the building surface details, the roof details including roof utilities and weather wear, and, it adds an awesome night lighting enhancement to autogen. This package does not require GEX or any other addon to use. This package can be used with FSX default or any addon which calls the default FSX autogen. The night lighting addition will add entire new level of realism to the FSX default night textures or GEX Enhanced USA/Canada and are a great match for our upcoming GEX Europe release. Please note these are only textures for auto-generated houses, buildings, offices, apartments, etc and are not the major city skyscrapers and landmarks.There is absolutely no performance loss -or- performance gain when using these textures which are ONLY for FSX and can not be used in FS9. Happy Holidays from Team GEX to the entire sim community!

I'm downloading now! Enjoy

Very timely.

As I mentioned in that post, it does look like they've just boosted the contrast of the default textures, which rather disappointed me, and led to my suggestion that we make real NZ autogen textures.

Is it just me or do those replacement textures look as if they are suffering some compression artifacts? (i.e. decompress, edit, recompress = lossy)
The ground textures don't seem as crisp?
