It's an enjoyable aspect of scenery work to see someone start learning, develop skills, see releases and then graduate to payware quality. Tim Barnes aka Timmo is the primary force behind the package noted. Do a search at Avsim under his name and you'll find additional work scattered about NZ.

Also recommend consideration of the Godzone work; http://www.windowlight.co.nz/


Always like to see the "small developers" get recognition and sales! :jump:
 
WOW! That's absolutely fantastic scenery. I too will be awaiting Orbx's upcoming release, though this one is tough to put on hold for now. Great shots and thanks for sharing.

Those are great shots. :applause:

Vector Landclass is for the entire country...Orbx scenery will initially cover only the South Island and that is about 6 months away I believe.

There is a stack of detailed payware and freeware airports available that slots into the VLC scenery. Apart from what is mentioned above I suggest the following sites

http://www.fs-creations.org/

There is an ongoing project to improve VLC including new textures and further airports.
 
Joined the NZFF forum back in January and saw right away that default scenery was not the way. Purchased VLC and, basically, have been there ever since.

Looks like your missing one of the textures that VLC has. Those trees look like the Orbx ones, VLC has its own native bush texture for the trees. There is a control panel with VLC that you might be able to turn them on with. It will make it look even better
