Hi all,I'm impressed!Thanks to a hint from a Norwegian friend I just downloaded and installed a new high-quality freeware mesh of Norway. Add to that the free roads, bridges, water, and landclass packages available at the same site (plus whatever you'd like to have in terms of airfields and photoscenery) and you're ready for some truly scenic flights.All available at http://www.flightsim.no/file/FS2004/Scenery/Europa/Norge/Thanks a million to the various authors - great work!!!Cheers, Holgerhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/118994.jpg

Me again,another screenshot... :-)Cheers, Holgerhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/118998.jpg

:-lol :-lolFor a moment there, I thought I was perusing the SCREENSHOT FORUM.... My bad... ;-)Anyway nice shots, and a great site as well. Lots of goodies to be had. I personally recommend the Hovden Scenery, ENOV, and have fun with the approach. I think I got that scenery there, it's been a while, since I installed it.Yeppers, Here is the Direct link to download ENOV Scenery.http://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=2332Sonar5Grab My FREEWARE Voice recognition Profiles here:[a href=http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fs2004misc&DLID=58334]Cessna 172 Voice Profile[/a][a href=http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fs2004misc&DLID=60740]FSD Avanti Voice Profile[/a].You will need the main FREEWARE Flight Assistant program to use it, get it here:[a href=http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=genutils&DLID=39661]Flight Assistant 2.2[/a]

Wow--thought I was looking at FS2006 there for a second :)

Joe,Happy to see you remember ENOV! A nice approach at sunrise...Ah, those memories! Best,Mike

Hi Holger,Thanks for the tip.And this mesh is indeed stunning compared to the default mesh !!.My tip:Place your aircraft at the top of Mount Dalsnibba, overlooking the Geiranger Fj

Would you settle for the QM2, Rob? There's a fantastic model of her at:www.fs-shipyards.comThere was a QE2 back in the annals of time, wasn't there?

Hi all,"For those of us who are "Norwegian challenged" could you tell what files we should be looking for? I picked up the mesh and looked at the rest of the page but without a translation I couldn't decide what else to DL."The file packages I installed are:* high-res mesh: Norway_mesh.zip (I use the extra LOD10 version included in that package)* water bodies: Norway_Scenic.zip * road package: norway_roads.zip * bridges: norskebroer11.zip * landclass: Norden_Landclass.zip (available here: http://www.fotoscenery.com/engelsk.htm )For the water bodies and road packages you need to disable a number of the default water and roads files. The list is in LesMeg.txt docs of the respective add-on and the default files reside in FS9SceneryEurwScenery and FS9SceneryEureScenery. Make sure that the files you move match exactly with those listed!Instead of deleting or renaming the default files I created a backup folder in Eurw and Eure, for example "FS9SceneryEuretemp_hold_for_Norway_scenic" and then moved the default files into those folders, which will deactivate them.BTW, http://www.fotoscenery.com/engelsk.htm has more screenshots and some information in English about most of these add-ons.Cheers, Holger

Hi all,Just installed & took a flight from Norway to Sweden to check out the border. Caught a series of these "News" signs etched into the countryside.Anyone seen these? (Is Ruud Farber playing with us? Or is there some sort of message that Norwegians are sending to outer space?)Best,Mikehttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/119081.jpg

I don't know the answer off the top of my head, but this subject has been covered several times here. I know there is a fix available. I'd suggest searching for Ruud and News here in the forums.Thomas

You don't need the landclass!!It's built in in the Norway_scenic!Johnny"I'LL BE BACK"[div align=center]http://www.avsim.com/hangar/fly/josve/aat.jpg ][/div

Thanks, Thomas.Good memory. The fix exists. This is a case where "No News is Good News"!For anyone else needing a solution, the AVSIM discussion (thanks to JimmiG) is here: http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...50523&mode=fullAnd the Ruud Faber corrections are here: http://www.fscene.com/fscene2004-all-patch-01.zip(At least this seems to work. Note that there have been updates and corrections since this early 2004 patch--which apparently have not included the "NEWS" fix. And further, I purchased the textures after the patch was issued but the "purchased textures" still had the fault. Odd, that. Oh well--a few hours of work and it's now patched. Keeping fingers crossed.)Best,Mike

PS. The good news is that Ruud has applied this patch to all new purchases after June 9, 2005. See http://www.fscene.com/fscene-breaking-news.html#patches
