Norway Pro (Work in Progress)

[Sesquashtoo 2,846]

Tony, Norway alpha2 is absolutely amazing . When Norway is ready, I hope you do  Sweden. Would be great to get all three Nordic countries as well as Norway. Thank you so much for everything!

That WOULD be good for a really good reason...

 

....I was enjoying the Alpha 1...and then saw a highway...and decided to just mask it...and see where I went.  Well, I was so impressed with what I was seeing, that LOL...that when I posted some pics...Tony came back on the pic thread to inform me...that I must have crossed the border into Sweden, for there were no such houses in his scenery that I was showing, or something like that.  I flew CLEAR OUT OF NORWAY Apha 1!  :Money Eyes:

Excellent work - thanks a lot!  :smile:

I hope you do  Sweden

 

Already on it. The only downside is that it won't cover all of Sweden. The detailed data covers most of Sweden except the mountains. That data you have to pay for unfortunately. 

 

 Stockholm, a sea of red roofs:-)

 

 

Beta 1 is up (Full changelog and download here http://world2xplane.com/2016/01/03/norway-pro/). This should address most of the issues reported here. For beta 2 I'll work on a better industrial and commercial building set, as the current set looks ugly and doesn't fit the theme too well.

[Lelle 1]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks a lot Tony. Just trying to download but seems that a few thousand other simmers had the same idea :-).

How could I miss this, Beta1 on its way.

Oh and great news about our good neighbours in the east!

[Bionor 44]

Beta1 is absolutly amazing! Bergen is uncanningly real, especially Minde-area with Brann Stadion, the main postcentral and pretty much...well, everything! All those weird lighthouses are gone as well:-)

[tonywob 4,768]

Thanks Tom, glad you like it :-). Hopefully some exciting stuff coming for beta 2

[olealm 12]

Yes, Bergen looks fantastic in Beta1, thanks again

(The blue smog generated by the DTH plugin is just about how it looks for real in the present cold weather)

[tonywob 4,768]

Pfff cold weather in Bergen ;-). We had -17˚C last week. I spent a month in Bergen in December, and for the entire month it just rained, non-stop, but it's a great place (I'd live there if I could afford it)

[olealm 12]

Hehe, past few weeks have been almost proper cold, temperatures between -2 and -10C. Now 30cm of dry snow and blue skies, too.

I really don't understand why you chose December instead of now


 

 

Oh, and apologies if I made the impression there are almost no red roof-tops in Norway. It is probably around 50% "red" and 50% Grey/Dark.

No matter what, it is great as is.

[tonywob 4,768]

Unfortunately I didn't choose, I had to go for work. I wish I'd seen it in the snow and blue skies :-)

 

Regarding the roofs, I just went about 90% grey because the randomisation made it look worse. 

[Fi5kuS 57]

ENGM....Tony...this Alpha 2 is already SERIOUS scenery...

 

...even in only the Alpha stage...around this airport in square miles....simply fabulous.  The towns are fabulous...  At full out scenery settings, it looks real...wow. 30-35 FPS maintained, easily.

 

Highest Regards...

 

This will surpass Massachusetts.....

 

Post Edit:  About the only thing so far Tony, is that I still see some trees on roadways, and homes in water, out upon the lake, fjord, just off shore.  Not many...but still you find them all over.

 

Is this a freeware airport, or? I can't seem to find it.

 Quick question, is this order of my custom sceneries correct in terms of NorwayPro's placement?

Also, according to the log file, it says that NorwayPro is loaded and running without any issues, but I cant spot any difference between this and default, so perhaps I'm doing something wrong afterall, which made me think of scenery order. Completely new to X-Plane by the way  :wink:

Try this, it should help

Remember this isn't a mesh or photoimagery, it's an object/road/forest overlay, so if you have your object and road settings on low, it will be difficult to notice. I hope to get some updated mesh tiles done for the next beta, especially around the coast where some bulidings are in the sea because the coastline in OSM is quite off in some places.
