FSscene & GE

[AndrewB 7]

Does GE overwrite the FSscene textures? I am planning to purchase GE I want to know how much "pre" work I need to do with FS9. I am currently running UT, FSgenesis Terrain & FSScene TexturesThanksAndrew

I think it is safe to say that whether BEV, GE or FSscene - they will all overwrite each other.Michael J.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_744F.jpghttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-beta.jpg

I uninstalled FSCENE and love the new textures with GE!

"...Does GE overwrite the FSscene textures?..."I hope so!x(

I will make sure they'll do !!!FSsene is crap and much too expensive. I've bought all 4 Africa seasons for 48 Euros (about $60.oo) only a week ago and was so disappointed I had to ask for a refund....... obviously no chance.Roland

Yes GE is excellent value for money too and all the autogen aligned beautifully.

[Guest Adverse Yawn]

I agree. FScene was a huge dissapoinment for the cost. I thought the textures repeated more than the defaults and the autogen is bonkers with buildings everywhere, so unrealistic especially with those goofy small grass airfields. I bought the Just Flight boxed version. I suspect Just Flight ballsed it up. Seriously considering GE.

Seriously considering GE.There are a variety of patches for the autogen in FScene from the FScene website- don't know if they're relevant for the Just Flight versh, but I'd be very surprised if they weren't.A point to remember about GE and Fscene. Over at the Flight 1 forums everyone is talking about backing up the World/Sceery/Texture folder and reinstalling the default textures before installing GE. BUT some of the files that have been made available for d/l for Fscene also modify the FS9/Texture folder and the .agn autogen files. If you don't change those back to default as well you're asking for trouble!GE highlights the faux pricing policy of these other replacement textures, and the fact that the `regional` release policy is just bogus. If I had known then what I know now I might have actually taken the Fscene products to my local Trading Standards Office as it seems we've been hoodwinked. And I'n not getting suckered into any more BEV either!Allcott

Can someone list, in detail,and what FS9 CD, how to re-install the original textures. All of them. I have some FScene installed as well and would like to buy GE. Also using some FS Genesis stuff,landclass and some other textures. Do I uninstall them too?

[Gdavis0101 0]

When I reviewed FSscene I initially really liked them, but after I used them for some time I found the repetitive textures tiresome and some cities were totally devoid of Autogen, after uninstalling them and switching to GE, all my autogen is back and the textures are so much more believable..

Moonstar,If you have Microsft Excel, grab from the library here at AVSIM.Jim Karn[link:www.precisionmanuals.com]http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_pf.jpg

Sorry, the rest of your questions:GE2006 will overwrite the FScene textures. It will not touch FSGenesis's landclass or texture files as they are located in a different location.Jim Karnhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_pf.jpg

[Guest moonstar]

Can someone tell me which disc has the original scenery files. I don't have Excel and the provided link is dead. I appreciate the help Jim, but somebody must know the location. And, if someone that helped write or develop GE is reading this, please tell me what the best way to proceed would be. I have FScene scattered around in my FS9 install, I want to install Ground Environment and overwrite FScene, please advise detailed instructions if there are any. Thanks.
