June 11, 200520 yr Commercial Member Hi there,I started out with regular right click > save as but that stalled quickly. I then used DAP and it grabbed the 300MB file within 45 minutes. It's possible though that us spreading the word about this fine add-on has hit their server hard so I'd continue trying over the next while.Cheers, Holger
June 11, 200520 yr FYI I have tried several times to download Norden_Landclass.zip but have been unsuccessful. With DAP I get the message that the file cannot be found, and when I disable DAP and use IE I get the message that the page cannot be found.NigelVancouver
June 11, 200520 yr Commercial Member Hi Nigel,same here. It's possible that the file got removed because, as Johnny pointed out, the Norway Scenic package contains a newer version of the same landclass file and the instructions in Norway Scenic actually tell users to disable that Norden_Landclass bgl file.In other words, Norden_Landclass.zip is not needed. My mistake.Cheers, Holger
June 11, 200520 yr Commercial Member I also tried to get Norway_mesh.zip using Star Downloader (the free version) without any luck. I dug out an old backup disk and installed an old(?) version of DAP (5.0.0.1) and managed to get the file. Didn't have any luck with the cgi link from the flightsim.no page though so I finally figured out the actual URL where the file is stored and downloaded it from there. Here's the URL if that might help anybody out: ftp://djay.myftp.org/04scenery/Norway_mesh.zipFinally got the file after 2 days of downloading (dial-up :( ) and I must say it was well worth it :) So far just the mesh alone is awesome!Thanks Rob Barendregt for the suggestion of Mount Dalsnibba and for posting the coordinates. That was a great starting place!Jim
June 11, 200520 yr It's well worth the download! And combined with Lennarts great textures it gives you a great experience flying in Norway.The best thing is that all this is freeware :)Norwegian Airports 2004http://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=854And the updatehttp://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/update1.cgi?ID=854Lennarts Textureshttp://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/search.cgi?query=lt04_You need all files!Norwegian Roadshttp://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=3493Norwegian bridgeshttp://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=3475Norwegian churcheshttp://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=3629Norway scenichttp://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=3485Norway Quality mesh http://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/download.cgi?ID=3638http://home.online.no/~johsvenn/artimages/fs2004/182o.jpgJohnny"I'LL BE BACK"[div align=center]http://www.avsim.com/hangar/fly/josve/aat.jpg ][/div
November 1, 200520 yr Hi all!Just a small hint here. Ever been to NorthCape ? I just finished the ENHV airport, it has sloping runway, custom lights etc.. Download is here:http://www.flightsim.no/cgi-bin/file/searc...y=ENHV_2005.zipRequired for this addon in the Norway Airports mentioned above. It is designed and compatible with the Mesh, and Scenic.FYI: I am currently working on an enhanced scenery for city areas. This will include VTP2 files with exact city boundary for entire Norway.Freddy
November 1, 200520 yr It's a nice country, Norway. I spent many childhood summers at the family's summer house near Steinkjer (north of Tronheim).Will have to check out all those Norway sceneries some day. With so much great scenery for North America like Georender, Megascenery, Misty Fjords, FlightZone, UT, etc. etc. I think I've become a virtual American immigrant :-lolI'm just a bit jealous because I haven't found nearly as much good scenery for Sweden. It's almost as scenic as Norway and it's cheaper to live here too :( -

November 8, 200520 yr Donny AKA ShalomarFly 2 ROCKS!!!Any particular order to install? My only experience with FS9 scenery is U.S. Waters and Roads.Other than that, this deserved a bump anyway:-) Best Regards, Donny:-wave

November 8, 200520 yr Hey! I went salmon fishing in Steinkjer and Osen a couple of years ago. Caught plenty of Seatrout on the fly, no salmon.Ha' det!Dasher7

November 8, 200520 yr Freddy,Thanks for all your excellent work... You have introduced many "foreigners" to the beauty of northern Norway. (At least virtually!)Look forward to your cities.Mike --Mike MacKuen
