Looking for better terrain of Great Lakes (Michigan) areas

Featured Replies

Hi everyone. I haven't been in my simulator or on this site for years. I think maybe it's been like 5 years even?At any rate "Hello again!" :D and I'm hoping somone can point me to some better resolution ground & scenery for Michigan/other Great Lakes states (including O'Hare Airport and Chicago). I've done some cursory searches via Google and have come up empty, so maybe the pros here can show me some cool new options! :( Thanks so much for the help!

My suggestion would be Ultimate Terrain USAX (UTUSAX) and Ground Environment X (GEX). They are both Payware available at flight1.com. UTUSA will give you more accurate placement of roads, rail, waterways, and coastlines while GEX will give you better looking textures. I would also recommend a good 3rd party land class product such as FSGenesis. If you want to go further there is Real Environment Extreme 2.0 (REX 2.0) which will improve your environment textures like Sky and water, as well as airport textures. It also includes a better weather generator, then default.

Thanks

Tom
