Haha...Alonso's Buenos Aires city textures are more like GE Pro generic ground textures than anything Grin

No hard feelings mate, I appreciate you putting in a few shots Cheesy

Sorry to invade this tread (I didn't produce anything in the past couple of months let alone for SimWorld) but these shots could be from anywhere.

I think if your shooting for SimWorld there should be a distinguishing landmark in the shot. These shots all just look to generic.

Danny ... how about sharpening the rules a little?

Mine contains Siula Grande... one of Peru's most famous landmarks.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siula_Grande

Quote:

Siula Grande is a mountain in the Cordillera Huayhuash, in the Peruvian Andes. It is 6344 m high and has a subpeak Siula Chico 6260 m high.[1]

It was made famous by the book Touching the Void by Joe Simpson, about an ascent and subsequent harrowing descent of the mountain by him and Simon Yates in 1985. The book was made into a film of the same title in 2003. Although they ascended the West face, and thereby became the first to reach the summit by that route, they chose the North Ridge (first descended in 1936 by a German team) for their descent, which was made almost impossible by horrible weather. All subsequent climbers have avoided the ridge and rappelled back down the face. As of 2002 the south face has been unconquered.

Maybe have the image as a link to some info??

Dry your eyes, Alrot!

I'm currently making my way out of Australia in a C-17 to Marambio Base in Antarctica south of The Horn in South America. I'll come visit you on my way back to Elmendorf AFB, AK.

Well here are a couple of shots of Ezeiza Intl. (SAEZ) in Buenos Aires Argentina. This is FS2004 scenery. ezeiza15.zip from FlightSim.com It is not the greatest scenery, but I coundn't find any for FSX. Maybe you can use them.

Sure is. I was down there for around an hour and only seen one aircraft land. No aircraft at the airport. None came with the scenery.
Don't think I will keep it. It don't blend in with the FS2004 default scenery at all.

Looks like I have a week-end of thumbnailing, re-sizing and posting ahead. Great work everyone.

Harold, not all the shots make it into Simworld. We do try to select the ones that are distinctive to the region they're shot at.

Hey Clip, make sure while you're spending those priviledged hours selecting, labelling, thumbnailing, uploading and posting that you don't abuse your priviledges and let a few generic, unworthy shots slip in just for the hell of it. Wink

I've got another big Cage update to do so you won't be suffering alone.
