Heron's Nest is out

This one won't fit in the hangar, but it lands ok.

I like Aeroncas, myself, both CR1 and LIC, but why have I started getting only thumbnails instead of full pictures?

I only have preparv3.1. I installed pretty much the same as Ed.( I have all of Ed's Maine scenery). I manually installed it, did not use the .exe file. Everything works great except, no bushes. The only option that does not work is being able to take off from the water. The only float plane that works is the Icon5.

More great shots! And vids!

For the P3D 3.1 users, the next time the pop-up appears, click "Check Online" instead of "Run Once". The developer says he's updated the online validator to include P3D3 now.

While I appreciate that people like to have control over their setups, bear in mind that the auto-installer does more than just put some scenery in a folder and register it in the scenery.cfg. It also installs the module that controls the vegetation and at least one model in the scenery. Unless you run the exe, there's more manual work to do to get it right, and more support requests if you have trouble. The installer has been thoroughly tested on a number of platforms, and should give you no problems. I strongly recommend people use it.

To be clear, this is the installer that's tucked away in the scenery folder inside Heron's Nest in the MyProduct folder?

Great, Thanks Bill. Also, I haven't chimed in yet, but I extend my thanks for this beautiful scenery.

Thanks Bill! I got the email with the link and have downloaded my copy but not installed yet as I was waiting for the module to be updated for v3.1.

As someone who loves flying islands, bush aircraft and seaplanes, this is definitely my kind of place!

Great work. I'll be spending a lot of time there for sure.

No, the installer I was referring to is the main exe that you downloaded - IBYHN100.exe. Running that will install the scenery and put things where they need to be, including activating the viva.dll.
 
For FSX-SE it installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\MyProduct, so I dragged the Heron's Nest folder to my Steam's Addon Scenery folder. P3d would have sent it to the right place, and I now find that if I'd selected FSX and not Steam it would have sent it to E:\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\FSX, where it ought to be.

Yep, that's the installer nightmare devs are dealing with right now. There are so many permutations of sim installation, and rather than having a set path, it seems that the Steam Edition changes based on whether you have FSX installed already or not. It's a bit of a pain to make an installer that works for absolutely everyone. Doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying, though! :)

I have narrowed my mesh problem down to the LCS mesh, unfortunately.

In my defense, it's an addon mesh issue, as the product lines I've purchased in the past show the same issue. Which makes me wonder...

Don't people use addon mesh? Because if they did, more than Morten would have seen this.

There's a fairly simple fix available and I'll ask Bill if wants a copy for distribution.


BTW, nice place to land, even if I only used 1/3 of the runway...:encouragement:
 
For the folks that have P3Dv3.1, the dll fix is available. Start the sim and when you get the dll message click check on line and it will update the dll and you won't get the dll message the next time you start

I ran the update, selected run once and the "Nest" booted right up with all .dll controlled features working. Re-booted the sim and no warning message. Looks good to go here.

Thanks Bill, for the rapid response.

She's a beauty in 3.1
