Has anyone used the USA Mesh Terrain in FS2002? On the main page for the downloads it says for use in FS2002 and 2000, but in the "read me file" it says for use in FS 2000 only. Which is it? Is it safe for FS2002, and if so which scenery folder do unzip the files to? There is a ADON SCENERY, SCENEDB, and scenery folder. Which one is the right one? Please respond only if youve done this in FS2002. Thanks.

It does work in FS02' Iuse it every once n while... there is a tutorial on how to load it into the game on the same page as the down loads... There is a map of the different sections and a readme file with a very good script on installing and optimizing your settings to get it to run. You just uzip the folders and copy them into the Scenery folder then you must go to your secenery library to turn it on...

d,
I don't think you will notice much difference over a person running 512mb or 1 gig of ram. 1 gig is about as high as I would go. From what I have seen it is a combination of the processor speed, ram and video card. If you have a very fast processor, a great video card (128mb), and 512mb to a gig, then you should be sitting very well performance wise. If you want 2 gigs for the sake of having it, then it is your dollar, pound, euro or what ever.....
