ddavid 149 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Ulrik Motzfeldt, of FlightSim Greenland (flightsim.gl), has announced new scenery and mesh for Narsarsuaq. This is the 'new' name for the Bluey West One, the airfield used by both the U.S. and Allied Air Forces during the latter stages of WWII, and more recently for the supplying the DEW Line radar stations on the Greenland ice-cap. Have a look at Ulrik's screenshots here The package will be available soon and I will most likely repeat the ATWC Leg into BGBW and post some shots. Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
Tim_A 996 Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 All we need now is Goose Bay and the Labrador coast, and the North Atlantic Corridor will have end to end scenery Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 Tim - I downloaded an excellent scenery for Goose Bay when I used CYYR as a staging post for the ATWC Leg into Narsarsuaq. You can find it on this page: http://flightontario.com/dl_04_listing.htm Although the scenery is for FS9, it works well in FSX... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
Tim_A 996 Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Thanks Dai, I'll check it out Link to post Share on other sites
Ulrik Motzfeldt 2 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 Nice to see this topic ! The Narsarsuaq X project will be the largest and best release from FlightSim Greenland, this I can asure you! Right now I am doublechecking the MESH for whole area, and are correcting the minor errors I find. The desing of lakes and stream are still ongoing. Custom made buildings for Narsarsuaq is still ongoing. Are still hoping for a release this summer :-) But it might take longer time to finish it all. Want to make the best and a perfect release. As all the releases from FlightSim Greenland, this release will be a FREEWARE :-) Ulrik Motzfeldt CEO FlightSim Greenland Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted June 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 Hi Ulrik - thanks for letting us know how Narsarsuaq X is going! You can tell that we're looking forward to using the scenery when it's available and many thanks for providing the sim community with such a great freeware product! Cheers - Dai.

mutley 4,487 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Lovely shots Dai, thanks for posting. Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Looks stunning. Well defined Mesh and great looking ground textures judging by your shots.. Is it a photoreal or texture/landclass based scenery? Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted June 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Yep - Ulrik and his flightsim.gl buddies are doing a fine job - the mesh is based on satellite data, I think, and it's landclass and not photo-scenery, so you get the seasons care of FSX. I'll post some more screenshots over the weekend... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
Ulrik Motzfeldt 2 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 The scenery uses landclass, so we have the season variations. But yesterday I made Photo texture for Narsarsuaq Airport area. This makes the Narsarsuaq more alive and much better to look at. But I made season variation to the photo texture aswell: You can see more screen shots at our website, where I have uploaded some screen shots at out Facebook Fanside.

mutley 4,487 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Hey! it's looking good :001_th_smiles89: Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted July 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Excellent work, Ulrik - I also found the default ground textures a little inconsistent with reality. The photo-textures araound BGBW look much, much better! Here's some more coastal shots - first a fishing village: ... and the heliport: BTW, this scenery really makes you want to get to Greenland - must start saving up... Cheers - Dai.

ddavid 149 Posted July 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Narsarsuaq is approaching RC1, here's a dusk shot: I've almost saved enough for the flight... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
Ulrik Motzfeldt 2 Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Hey David If you ever should come to Greenland - then let me know. If you should land in Narsarsuaq, then you can meet Mads (FlightSim Greenland team member), who is currently working at the airport terminal :-) And if you should be lost near Kangerlussuaq or Sisimiut, then let me know :-) Link to post Share on other sites
