VFR Photographic Scenery Generation X for FSX replaces the default
scenery in FSX with real aerial photography and terrain data, providing you
with a highly realistic, accurate & detailed immersive world.
Using
real aerial photography for scenery means that the views you see from your
virtual cockpit are literally transformed into the real thing - you see exactly
what the pilots of the survey aircraft saw when they acquired the aerial
photography.
VFR Photographic Scenery Version 3 for FSX gives you
unsurpassed photographic detail at 1.2m/pixel detail with terrain mesh at 5m
which replaces your default scenery.

additional 10 high resolution areas at a remarkable 60cm/pixel
covering:
- Caernarfon
- Conwy
- Darlington

To complement these new areas, this volume also includes custom 3D
models of significant landmarks of
- Britannia Bridge
- Conwy Castle
- Hartlepool Lighthouse
- Humber Bridge
- Menai Bridge
- Silver Jubilee Bridge
- Tyne Bridge
- Tyne Millenium Bridge
- Tyne QEII Metro Bridge
- Tyne Swing Bridge
Features:
Unparalleled Terrain detail:
With a 5m terrain mesh data from Getmapping's latest aerial surveys, VFR
Generation X gives users minute topographic detail that shows every lump and
bump - all fully correlated to provide the perfect fit with the aerial
photography, adding dramatically to the immersion that this synthetic
environment provides.
Ultra High-Definition Photographic
Scenery:
With this volume you can expect ultra-high definition
resolution for the entire area. The resolution has been set to 1/2m/pixels with
0.60cm selected towns and cities and additional 3D bridges and buildings.
The end result is smooth frame rates with exacting detail for your VFR
flights.
NEW Hand Edited Night Lighting:
New advanced
techniques have been used to generate a highly realistic night scenery for the
entire coverage area.
Spectacular Water Effects:
The
water bodies have been designed to retain the natural water colours shown by
the aerial photography as far as possible, again adding to the scenery's
immersion. In addition, they will provide a moving, reflective surface that
will allow float aircraft operations, and will even let you see through to
sub-surface features like sand bars and underwater channels.
Compatibility with UK2000:
To ensure compatibility with other
content for England & Wales, Horizon has been coordinating efforts with the
talented scenery designers from UK2000 and Gary Summons, who have been busy
re-positioning existing content, and adding further 3D objects and greater
detail to their already outstanding sceneries.
Enhanced
Performance:
Smooth frame rates with crisp, sharp photographic
scenery - VFR Generation X has been specifically designed to optimise
performance and reduce the effects of blurry scenery textures, even on lower
spec. systems.
Coverage:
The coverage extends from Latitude 53.086°N (a line running East to West across the country parallel with Wrexham), as far North as the Scottish border.
