Terrain Mesh ?

I am looking for some good Terrain Mesh for FSX. I am on a very tight budget so Payware is out of the question. Any suggestions
 
Good, you will do them a favour if you use the torrent download method, which costs
them nothing.
You can find the torrents at the Avsim link and I found them to be just as fast as a direct download
would be.
 
I'd advise to use some download manager. I tried to download those files without any - no success.
 
What are you supposed to do with the torrent files?

I clicked the torrent link and got a 30kb "torrent" file that my computer doesn't know how to open.
 
OK, I downloaded it and got 3,5 GB of scenery (no textures). Installed it, first in scenery/Eure/scenery and then in scenery/world/scenery.

Any difference in landscape ? Nope.

Do I need new glasses? Did I put it in a wrong folder?

Suggestions welcome.....

Happy flying & safe landings,

hertzie.
 
Should you find the necessary shekels, payware scenery is often at 10m resolution. Worth paying for.
 
OK, many thanks for replies. I'll get it out of the world/scenery and into the addon/scenery and see what happens then.

Cheers, hertzie.
