Could someone please post some pix of desert landscapes? I have heard that everything is too "green" and, if so, I suspect that desert areas such as Phoenix and Albuquerque areas will be too green. I have GEX and it renders a very realistic brownish sandy color for those areas.

EDIT: GEX compared to FSX default where the desert was too white colored. Bland. Boring.

 

Phoenix snapshots + sweet fx:

@Toufic83 - Thanks. Phoenix does not look too bad nor too green in those shots.

If you're Irish!

The green desert textures are supposedly being looked at,  and a fix is planned for the first patch (I think).

On my system I am using a lot photo scenery for Europe and I only fly there.

 

I am thinking about buying FTXG too and only use the textures known in my current world texture folder and their autogen.

In this way I can fill up the "empty" spots where there is no photoscenery.

 

If I rename my current FSX folder and make an empty one with a copy of the fsx.exe file in it I can install it and than copy the textures I to the real world scenery folder.

The same for the new autogen.

 

Then I ll rename the fsx folders again.

 

In this way I will have no compatibility issues ....
