July 1, 200916 yr Author Moderator Why don't you contact FSGenesis?I did. Had I received a reply I wouldn't have asked here... :( Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
July 1, 200916 yr I did. Had I received a reply I wouldn't have asked here... :(Keep trying. I've always found Justin at FSGenesis to be responsive. Is the Terrain Bundle Special listed on the website? That may show what CDs are included...
July 1, 200916 yr Actually the site is kinda vague. Not in what it includes but more in what it doesn't include, errr, what you don't need when you get it :( ___________________________________________________________________________________ Zachary Waddell -- Caravan Driver -- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/zwaddell Avsim ToS Avsim Screenshot Rules

I did receive an answer from Justin directly, confirming my suspicion. Not knowing any better, I'd ordered 44 CDs worth (the entire FS9 catalogue!), to which Justin quite sensibly replaced with the 6 DVDs containing the entire catalog... ;) :( Fr.

July 2, 200916 yr Im not sure whether Justin told you in his reply, but everything he has is shipped with the bundle, except the waterfalls and the landclass. I don't use FSX, so I didnt see that the waterfalls software was of great benefit to me, But, I would definitley download the landclass if you can. I makes a huge impression in view of the fact is is a rather small file. Unless you have other landclass files you are using I would suggest the landclass file available on his download page.John
July 2, 200916 yr Author Moderator Now THAT is a bargain...The real "bargain" was that I finally bought one of the seven remaining "Galaxy Plus" memberships, which entitled me to order everything in both the FS9 and FSX catalogs. I actually hesitated ordering all 44 of the FS9 CDs because I felt a bit "guilty" considering the circumstances. I imagined how expensive it would be to ship that many CDs! :( The only files I had to download were the LandClass files for FS9 and FSX, and the Waterfalls. Now, no matter what happens, I have all of Justin's fine work on permanent media... :( Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
July 3, 200916 yr Commercial Member Check and make sure you have "Hawaiian Islands 9.6m Terrain & Landclass" for FS9, I just bought the North America 2 DVD set after which this 9.6 Hawaii package became available in the "My FS2004 Downloads" section on the site, however as near as I can tell it isn't actually on the DVDs that I got in the mail. Maybe it's on one of the other DVDs in the terrain bundle but it doesn't make sense that it would be available for download upon purchasing only the North America set if that were the case. You should have the following files wherever you installed your mesh:dem10m_hawaii.bgldem19m_hawaii.bgldem38m_hawaii.bglThere's also a landclass .bgl probably in the same folder but I put mine in a dedicated landclass folder instead so it could be above UT and below my own custom landclasses.Jim
