Good work, Nick. I can't wait 'til this finally comes out! It's on my waiting list Wink

P.S. Are you SURE I can't have your system? Grin

Looking very nice Nick!! Good to see some mountains!

It's just a very tentative opinion, but it seems to me that the earth between the crops is very light in colour, almost white, like if you put paper on a rough surface and went over it with a crayon or pencil...
...other than that I like these textures a lot!!

I think I know the answer already Grin

... ...but any chance of a VERY rough ETA??

What’s crazier is sitting in front of a screen and landing every house, bush, tree, shrub, water tower, power pole, hotel, office building, church, etc, etc etc by hand

Its something every sanitarium should have as an activity

We have not replaced any mountain textures as of yet... we are heading there next along with already in progress production in Spain and Italy

No ETA's

Although we do have an unannounced target date to try and reach for beta testing, the project wont drag out well into next year.

Shane's right, we're not worthy!

And you say frames are better than with default scenery?

Oh, and if it's a slight possibility, I'd love to see some shots from Denmark Cheesy

Not sure what you are talking about... but those images are not farmland

This here is GEXn EU farmland

That snow cover is pretty drastic in the first one... Cheesy

but the second one has lovely green fields.

So somewhere in the first half of next year, eh? Good to hear it's coming along!

Snow cover in the mountains has nothing to do with GEX. That is controlled by the Seasons.bgl file for the region, the landclass file in use such as SceneryTech, UTX and other files. Although we do make the replacement snow textures when and where and how much they show is not controlled by GEX. Those images are early Spring too. So what ever the sim uses to land snow is in control of that.

Wink

Could be sooner than next year, could be early next year.. we are not making any decisions around release dates as of yet.

Sorry Nick, I was joking - there is a huge white gap before the picture, at least on my screen... maybe there are more shots but I only see one... just being stupid! My speciality... Embarrassed

Sounds good with the release... it'll certainly make a difference to the dismal representation of Europe. Just hope I've got the spare cash for it...
