NZ Photoreal Autogen Project v2.0 released

Hey all,

I am releasing my, what was once payware, Photoreal Autogen Scenery. This time it's version 2.0!!

Previously this went with Ant Davidsons 5m Photoreal for NZ found here: https://gumroad.com/antdavison 

It will work if you have your own Aerial imagery but this hasn't been split into regions, someone could do that if they wish otherwise time permitting I may get around to it.

My Autogen is based on the latest GIS data including Buildings (Commercial, Industrial, and Residential) and Vegetation using Topo50 LINZ data.

I tried to reach out to Ant some time ago so I could see if he would let me water and blendmask the Aerial imagery as I have a near perfect auto masking tool I coded that will process Tif images that he would have used but didn't get far with it. Anyway, my Autogen is now freeware for all to enjoy including those of you who paid for my initial release some time ago.

I need to advise that this autogen needs aerial imagery to work and covers the entire country. So, it's my way of giving back to the FS community mainly all those who really appreciate New Zealand but of course for anyone to enjoy. 

It is quite large, their are 4 files split into 4GB each.

Don't hesitate to provide feedback or issues and I'll see about fixing any weird stuff that maybe happening as I have not had the privilege of flying the entire country to see all my work as there's a lot of flying hours to be had and I haven't had the time. I have seen quite a bit of the autogen and looks good as far as I can tell in many places i've seen so....

Some screenshots you've probably already seen but I'll link here as it's relevant to see some of the work on Bing Aerial Imagery which unfortunately I cannot distribute due to copyright issues.

happy flying!

Hello!) 

Only for FSX ? No P3D ?

In jurisprudence, there is a principle - you look for the person who benefits.

Hi all, 

Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding. 

I am no longer supporting the Freeware product. However, the great news is I have been developing this scenery to an unprecedented level of detail and is available via my web store.

Https://aotearoa-creations.com

All the info you need is there as well as the link to my discord to keep up to date when new releases are available. 

The current version is unmatched in detail going far beyond my Freeware version which only uses the default biomes whereas my payware scenery is far more granular, meaning you'll see better variations to match NZ as best as possible. 

Best Regards, 

Aotearoa-Creations Dev!
