Nemo,

Do you realize that the IP you gave is for a flight server out of China/Japan?  It has a really high data lag time at least from NA.... WSPilots is typically about 60 and this one is about 330.  Plus I can't read what the server policies are on the website... so do we know if we are in "violation" of their rules by not using Teamspeak...or by not XXXXXXXXX?

Just stuff to consider.

best,

...................john

EGNH Blackpool.

Barrow VOR= 109.40

50 Miles. 

EGNC Carlisle. VOR = 110.70. NDB = 328.0

48 Miles.   

New Galloway NDB = 399.0

23 MIles   

EGPK Prestwick NDB = 355.0 or 426.0

Total distance = 141 Miles.

We will be using the WSP server if we are all using FS2004, but if there is someone that is using fs2002 we will have to change to a 2002/2004 server:

WSP i.p:  66.147.177.125 (23458 Yellowstone)
CFSO i.p: 221.203.169.108

Hopefully within the next few days i'll have sorted the hosting problem out so i'll hopefully be hosting them from next week onwards,.

So its WSP tonight then.......

Nemo...... starting sim up in 20mins.....

Excellent idea, Lads... Grin...!

I just need to get some decent Mesh* for Great Britain to replace the extremely FLAT! scenery that Uncle Bill has cursed us with... Cry...!
...any recommendations...?

I like the short hops from one field to the next, good practice for take-off's and landings and makes navigating a bit of fun...Grin...!

...and it's all performed in "England Time", which means I have Supper and get to bed at a sensible hour...Wink...!
LOL...!

Cheers Lads...!

The SimV world mesh is great for the UK as theres only 4 files to download;

EC12
EC13
EC35
EB90

They cover all of England, Scotland and Ireland (excluding the Shetland Islands) and parts of northern France, Holland and Germany.

Paul,
I use the terrain mesh from SimV but i also use these textures from Avsim:

ukn.zip
http://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=ftp&DLID=45226

uksw.zip
http://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=ftp&DLID=45228

uke.zip
http://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=ftp&DLID=45224

it makes the U.K less flat, and doesn't kill the frame rates as much as some do  Grin Grin Grin

Yeah, I had them meshes installed, but I installed the SimV one's over them, didn't notice much of an improvement...they're probably the same!

Hi Lads....!
I've just downloaded and installed the scenery mesh for the UK...
EC12, EC13, EC35 and EB90.

http://www.simviation.com/fsdterrainsrtm.htm

It's still completely naff, and bears no relationship to the real scenery which I am used to seeing while touring the country on my bike... Shocked...!
Herefordshire is full of hills, and Wales should be full of high mountains, but these just don't appear in the new mesh...very disappointing...!
When flying at 500-1000 feet we should be surrounded by hills, but this is not the case in the Sim...Buggar...!
England gets flatter with each new Flight Sim version...!

Whereas....
My trips around California are totally realistic*, even using the default scenery, (I have installed upgraded scenery and mesh which improves it even more).... Grin... Grin... Grin...!

The UK is the absolute pitts for flying with FS '98/2000/2002/2004... Cry...!
It's time we took our favourite babies over to California, (or Alaska), and enjoyed a bit of REAL scenery, courtesy of Uncle Bill... Grin...!
LOL...!

Cheers chaps...!

Paul..G-BPLF...8)...!

* referring to my relief maps of California... Wink

Uncle Bill and his scenery designers really do not like Great Britain...
Trust me... Wink...!
LOL...!
