Chris, At long, long last! I've been waiting for Microsoft to spill the beans about how to do coastlines for almost two years, since CFS2 came out! Yippee! Many thanks, Chris. Best regards, Chris Wright

To be correct, half a year to go (before the next, better formats are on the horizon and before early screenshots of FS2004 make the stuff obsolete that will now become possible) :-).Cheers,Siggy

[Guest BrianC]

Yes, then only a year after that before new things in that version become possible. ;)
