As I'm sure all of the U.S. residents of this forum know, the animal act Siegfried and Roy suffered a huge fall when one of it's actors was attacked during a performance at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Well just noticed this in FS2002 and thought I would show it to you. Everything but the plane is default.

Could you resize that shot. I'm using a 1152 x 864 screen resolution and I still have to scoll sideways. Cool idea 8), but that shot is pretty low quality.

Image is now down to forum guidlines of 800 max width, but one question ? Is this an edited image, as I notice a distinct box near the top where there is a very different colour and both sides of the border show a change in the vertical line ?.....

if this is addon scenery... probably a masking error

I'm not sure it's that much of a coincidence. I believe that until this unfortunate accident Sigfried & Roy had been a resident act at the MGM Mirage in Las Vegas since 1990. Their billboard would have been a permanent landmark.

More important - is there any news on Roy's progress?

PS. Apparently 267 employees are now out of a job.

Well that is the default scenery, the area that comes "out" is just my graphics card going to the land down under (and I don't mean Australia), the dark blue area is actually the smoke of the aircraft, I'm sorry Canadian I didn't really care how good a shot it was I just found that paticular landmark interesting so sue me.

And P.S. Sorry the image didn't look big when you have a huge screen. Won't forget next time. Tongue

You certainly need a new VGA.

AMD Athlon 64 3700+&&GeForce FX5200 256Mb&&1GB DDR400 DC&&Seagate 500Gb SATA-300 HDD&&Windows XP Professional X64 Edition&&&&That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they kicked the pants off of my P4 3.4!
