FSX SE Scenery Placement Tools?

Hi All,

does anyone know what tools are available to place scenery within FSX SE? I used to have instant scenery for the normal FSX however it doesn't seem to work in FSX SE. Can anyone please advise what's best.

Dale

I know of none, but it has been at least a year since I worked on the same problem without success. Judging from recent comments on the internet and a quick check of the SimForums (Flight One Support), nothing has been done to make Instant Scenery compatible with FSX-SE. Perhaps there is someone out there who has found a specific solution to this problem.


For me, being long retired and with time on my hands, I came up with a laborious work-around that involved the following:


1. Dual install of FSX and FSX_SE on separate SSD drives.
2. All add-on scenery installed on a third drive.
3. Flight 1 software including Instant Scenery installed to Local Disk Operating System (C:)
4. Scenery Config Editor (free utility for editing FSX scenery.cfg files) installed to Local Disk Operating System (C:) Program Files.
5. Install Instant Scenery to FSX and add new scenery to the drive in "2" above.
6. Set up the Scenery Config Editor to simultaneously update the FSX-SE scenery.cfg.
7. Fire up FSX-SE and see the new scenery.


Not for everyone, but I had a lot of scenery I produced with the Instant Scenery program and I was determined to continue its use.
 
ADE

DaleRFU: My Number 1 starting place would definitely be the latest version of ADE.

A Brilliantly versatile, and powerful scenery design program, very easy to add NEW models, and your own custom ground textures.
I would highly recommend this to anyone wishing to enter the amazingly creative world of scenery design.

And for people with little or no scenery design experience - the added bonus of one of the finest written user manuals I have ever read.
