This time we're moving over to another not-very-popular part of the world - South East Asia. In other words, those jungly/paddy fielded/templed/mosquito infested paradises somewhere between India and the Phillipines. Thailand. Vietnam. Sri Lanka is fine. Indonesia too...

All contributions welcome, the best will be selected...
Post code without image tags, or thumbnails if you like, in this thread.

Have fun!

Cheers

OK Roger

Take your pick. Same shot, four different times of the day.

These were taken just after lift off from Sangley Point. Looking across the bay at the city of Manila skyline in the Philippines.

I didn't have any problems at all. Make sure you read the installation file. It reads FS9 but it works in both FSX and FS9. Just add the whole unzipped folder to your FSX Sim library as as you would any other addon scenery. Maybe you got a bad download. Hope you get it running. It's a nice package

Not forgotten!! I'm just not getting on much right now with RL eating my time more than I thought it would... spending hours cycling every evening to lose weight (I'm about 10kg over) because my days are full of children's activities, proofreading, examining, marking...not much time left for SimV. I'm hoping that June will be better...

There's quite a lot of S.E. Asia scenery. I've got The Very Singapore payware, and there are apparently quite decent sceneries for KL, Bangkok, I had one freeware FS9 scenery for Jakarta I think, Apocalypse Now scenery for Vietnam, then there's that really good one for the Phillipines or maybe Indonesia but I can't remember the name, very nice little airport with lots of eye candy but what was it??... etc. etc. Lots of stuff exists...but I don't have Clippers magic powers to motivate people to take pics of it  Smiley I'll find time to produce something next week and we'll wrap it up Friday or so and move on.

Cheers

Thanks for the update Roger. I'm sure you have taken a peek at the shots of the Manila skyline that I submitted.

I have indeed and am wavering between the first and second as they show the colours of the buildings very nicely - quite an extensive bit of scenery that  Shocked  How is it close up?

Thanks Bob and Mic for your contributions! Smiley

Well Roger I'll see what I can do about getting a couple of close in shots of the city. I took these with Sangley Point in the foreground looking across the bay as I thought it enhanced the panoramic look of the city. The skyline of Manila is really spread out over a long distance and it's hard to get the whole area in one shot close up. I''ll try shooting it from an angle from seaside and see what I can come up with. Keep an-eye out. Will get back to you.

Oh, and I like both one and two also. Guess you will have to flip a coin, Wink
