• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Anybody tried World Terrain?

@scotth6: Thank you for those links.

I have now licensed World Terrain.

I have followed the setup adjustments to FSX, and WT is performing better.

One nice feature is the moving map with all the roads and landmarks labeled.
 
World Terrain in the South of France

World Terrain claims to have been based on Tile Proxy. I never tried Tile Proxy, but I must say WT works well and is very easy to set up.<br><br>The screenshot is in the French town of Bagnères de Luchon (LFCB). I just selected the airport, and WT found the tiles online and downloaded them into a FSX scenery folder. The tiles are built from Bing Maps images.<br><br>The WT panel on the right shows the Bing moving map with street and landmark labels.<br><br>There is an active thread with lots of tips and screenshots and videos here:<br><br>http://www.pilote-virtuel.com/viewtopic.php?id=81167<br><br><br>
