MegaScenery Earth's New Installer (Thumbs Up)

I have found the MegaScenery Earth 50 cm photo-scenery to be the most realistic scenery I have ever used in FSX. However, I had one serious issue with buying the various states. Each one came with 25-35 or so zip files which had to be unzipped and installed one at a time on to your system. This was a major PITA to me. It would take 15-20 minutes and about 400 mouse clicks to install a single state.

I of course, bitched to PC Aviator, who sells the scenery. They of course, ignored me and didn't even bother to reply. Well, I guess they were listening. FSTweak people helped them come up with an installer that opens and install every file in the entire state. I tried it with Georgia and it worked like a charm.

Thank you MegaScenery, PC Aviator, and FSTweak for providing the installer. My doctor tells me that in a couple of weeks my inflamed knuckle joint will be back to normal. :) By then I will have to buy some more states.

Since I live down in South Georgia, I would love to see you post some screen shots of this scenery.

Thanks....
