Terrascene 2




Chino reported:

And here are two shots of the same area with my new Quabbin scenery in the C172 in FLY!

  If you look carefully, you can spot some of the islands in the real photo in the FLY! screen shots. The shapes and positions are just right. One thing I need to revisit is elevation data. By messing up TS2's final step, I think I lost the chance to use the downloaded USGS digital elevation maps (DEM), reverting to the lower-rez default terrain height data from FLY! instead. I'm guessing that TS2 will let me rerun this final step without much trouble (I haven't read any doc yet, of course, but when someone picked up the phone during a USGS download, the procedure started right up again without a hitch).

This is amazing stuff -- Todd Klaus has created a great upgrade to an already excellent product. And did I mention that it is freeware? Just make sure you have a lot of free disk space and a reliable net connection -- the data and graphic files for this stuff can be huge (though a lot depends on how large a region you choose to render).
