HI Scott,If you contact me on [email protected] on messenger I'll talk to you on voice and show you how to fix the problem with the palm trees in Colorado.We've got a few problems with autogen but it's being fixed really fast.

Hi Dave, contact me on ; [email protected] first let me ask you ; have you defragged you harddrive?or a specific folder like ; sceneryworldtextureand these are my settings for the FS9.CFG [terrain]TERRAIN_DEFAULT_RADIUS=9.000000TERRAIN_EXTENDED_RADIUS=9.0000000TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS=1

Hi Scott, i can safely say that the palm trees are gone in Colorado ;-) We are shooting for releasing the full update during the weekend, which will also include revised autogen in Europe.

OK thanks.I've installed the latest patch and will give them a try.I'll say one thing, you guys are definately trying to stay on top of the issues.Scott

>Two words: global coverage.I have BEV and I'm quite happy with it. I'll be getting GE this weekend when I have time to mess with it. The two are so simular, according to all the posts, that I'll get GE simply for the global coverage and switch back and forth between the two as moods and circumstances warrant. BEV is promising global coverage in the future, and I'll certainly buy it; but "the future is now" with GE.Thanks for all the posts and info.Bob

What in the world is libelous about Scotts statement? Ive read it three times, and there is -nothing- which is aparently libelous about it. It is an OPINION and nothing more, anyone has a right to their opinions, and having one does not necessarily make them right. But can't we have a -difference- of honest opinions, without accusations of libel?Many may fly outside the US, but it sure appears from sales that there are many more flying in the US, than outside the US. Why, because the US is larger (many states are larger than European countries.) Those which are larger may not have an economy which allows the majority to own a computer. Secondly, as they first became popular in the US in the 50s-70s popularity spread faster in the US... (I had my first one in the early 70's.)

Hi there,the thread is a bit confusing now because Allcott's (not ScottPilot's) original post has been altered but it definitely was libelous because it specifically accused two companies of fraud. That part was removed by Tom.Cheers, Holger

one question regarding update for GE. Do i have to uninstall old version completelly and then run new version with reinstall function? I always very afraid of this uninstall/install issues, because sometimes i do something wrong and more problems comes.. :-(Can you please explain more precisely how to uninstall old one? First antibackup (or how can i say it) old textures, then uninstall GE or other way?

Well, as a new FE and GE customer, I am very happy with both Environmental packages.As I was not using BEV or FSScene, or for that matter, any other ground ground replacement textures, this has opened FlightSim up even more to me, and I actually enjoy looking out the window now.I will definately say that GE is a HUGE improvement over the default textures, and with all the new autogen, it's just wonderfull. I will have to say that the thing that I like about GE, as most other people will agree with me on this, is that it is a worldwide texture replacement package. I do understand that some areas may have palm trees where they not supposed to be, or whatever else may be out of place, but as a whole, the package is excellent.Well done to the guys who did this, and to Flight1.Cheers,
