    One way to beat the system is simply to provide alternative landclass textures where needed! By this I mean adding a texture folder to your landclass layer and filling that folder with custom landclas

Good stuff.

Top!

Well, this looks almost too good to be true...

I am almost tempted to reinstall fs9.

Any more info on this?

Oh, hell yes!  What's the source of the hd texture?  Looks like default FSX?

Any performance hit?

If this isn't difficult to do, I hope to use GEX textures in FS9 B) .

For anyone who has FSX it's just those city textures converted to 1024x1024 size for use in FS9. Any city ground textures for FSX can be converted for FS9 in this way. I own a copy of FSX so it's a none issue for me. From here we know FS9 can display better scenery textures than what people were telling us now comes creating custom textures that look even better in the confines of 1024x1024 resolution.

That looks really amazing.  Keep us posted on further developments!

Are you or perhaps someone else going to provide some direction on how to carry this out, or is it going to be something that will be done and then sold?

I don't think they'll be selling it... unless they purchased the rights to FSX (it's where the textures are coming from).

Yeah....good point.
