PCAviator 30 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Ultra-Res Cities take MegaSceneryEarth realism to a whole new level with unprecedented native 50 cm resolution scenery for larger cities and Terminal Control Areas. Boston is the first title in this series. You get around 6,000 square miles of the Boston Terminal Control Area (shown by the chart below) all displayed at 50 cm per pixel. The realism is simply stunning. You can fly this scenery and it remains clear right down to lower altitudes of around 500 feet. Perfect for helicopter flying around cities as well as cross city shorter flights in light aircraft or for ultra-realism while approaching and landing at a Terminal Control Area in a big jet. Interesting Fact: You'll note from the chart that this title also has complete Rhode Island state (excluding Block Island) so you can use this to upgrade your Rhode Island scenery if you already own it with higher-resolution imagery. This scenery can co-exist with your MegaSceneryEarth 2.0 Massachusetts complete state scenery. Place the Ultra-Res city above the state scenery in your scenery library. So you can get full enjoyment from your Boston Ultra-Res city we also provide a complete set of PDF charts for the state of Massachusetts. The most important one for VFR navigation in the area is the Boston Terminal Area Chart and there's even a Boston Helicopter Route chart included. To get a preview you can download the TAC and Helicopter Route Charts from here. The chart shown is the exact area covered by the scenery. Boston Terminal Area Chart (PDF) (25.5 Mb) Boston Helicopter Route Chart 1 (PDF) (12.7 Mb) Boston Helicopter Route Chart 2 (PDF) (17.6 Mb) This is a download edition with the option to order a DVD disk set (4 discs).When you order the DVD disk set you will still receive download links. If you do not wish to download, simply wait for your DVDs to arrive in the mail. THIS TITLE COMES WITH A FULL SET OF FAA AERONAUTICAL CHARTS FOR Massachusetts IN PDF FORMAT.

jaydor 345 Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Dean I know MSE would like to get a foothold in the European market and some countries like the UK are difficult owing to good fotoscenery already available. I know you have made a start with Switzerland and full marks for that. But just a reminder for you, is that most of Europe holiday in Southern Spain, there is no fotoscenery for Spain and Portugal that is as good as your MSE. Food for thought..

PCAviator 30 Posted October 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Jaydor, Thanks for the comment. Don't worry, there is plenty more of Europe to come with MSE I know one of those countries you mentioned is definitely on the list... The other may come later on too (depending on availability of good imagery). Link to post Share on other sites

But just a reminder for you, is that most of Europe holiday in Southern Spain, there is no fotoscenery for Spain and Portugal that is as good as your MSE. Food for thought.. I am afraid you are wrong about Spain there is a huge amount of highly detailed photoscenery available for it and what is best it is FREE !!!!! Like Belgium the best scenery is the FREE stuff There is also a new Switzerland HD scenery coming out in the very near future and that is free as well. However I havent found any good Portugal stuff yet but I will be pleased to be proved wrong The problem with MSE is the files are just too large they need to be broken down into smaller areas for them to be interesting to download.

dogtrack 345 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 WHAT !! 27 hours downloading all of California. I Take it you don't have FOBB in the Valley then. Link to post Share on other sites
britfrog 180 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 my download speed is around 250mb/s, it takes about 30 hours to download 3gb so on that speed it would take a week to download 1 region i think it would be cheaper to buy the dvd's Link to post Share on other sites

brett 2,283 Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Maybe I should go get my glasses but those images above make the scenery look blurry compared to other MES pic's I have seen. Without a good set of city building autogen, what is the draw of detailed photo scenery of Boston, not sure I get it. Don't mean to be insulting, really more curious. Boston is a great place for festivals, especially the Italian one, Saint Anthony's Feast. (Warning: Do not wear a NY Yankees shirt or hat) Link to post Share on other sites

(Warning: Do not wear a NY Yankees shirt or hat) The boss took those screenshots, and his FS PC is not as well set-up or tweaked as mine What is the appeal? Personal I suspect. Some simmers like autogen and 3d objects, others like photoreal ground imagery they can identify with. That's it, basically Link to post Share on other sites
