Totally agree. The same people always start raving about XP. So why are they here ? ....  Simply because P3D has something they are missing in XP ...

In all my Fs years I have never posted 1 time in the XP forum..

And imho P3D4 and now V5 look good :

 

 

Your simulator is UNREAL! Are those monitors or is it a projector??

I highly recommend using 7zip (https://www.7-zip.org/) to decompress these. Sweden is only in 7z format and not regular zip format. Sweden is broken into four regions, but you can combine them together. Just skip duplicates when you merge, or you can merge them properly with scenproc, I just haven't done that yet.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lYW4wgxAQrn4FyPzV4pHkS4eGBGidVFo?usp=sharing

I will add more when I make them, but for now it has:

Sweden

Serbia

Croatia

Cyprus

Greece

Thank you for sharing .

Can you tell where PR  Sweden can be DLed ?

I you want to make your own, ortho4p3d's provider SE2 works well. 

You do need to modify the provider details for 2020 use:

I have been building some Sweden today, after having done a first flight out of Orbx ESGG last night, based on a single tile.

I'm going to test out my larger Swedish area after dinner.

I’m a long-time FSET user/superfan, and i know you are too.

But for anywhere with coastlines, ortho4p3d is 1000% better. I’m a recent convert. Give it a try sometime.

Sweden would also be a pain with FSET even away from the coast due to all those lakes.

I’m 9 tiles in to my Sweden project, just getting started. 😊

Just wanted to re-mention that Matthias on fsdeveloper built a new tool called PSCreator that handles coastlines and blends really well and combines more data into a single BGL for fewer BGLS. It also does color correction, seasons and compression if you want it to. https://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/resources/pscreator-alpha.253/

@GSalden I don't mind making mine available, I'll just need to figure out the best way to share it.

5800X3D | Radeon RX 6900XT

I am uploading Sweden, it is 67GB. ARC with a combination of ZL 15 and 16 with higher resolution around ESGG, ESSA, ESNQ, ESSD.

For ESSV I have a separate scenery area for Gotland, which I actually need to redo, but I'll upload that as well.

PM me if you want to download. None of it is perfect, I haven't adjusted colors for individual tiles or removed clouds.

I’m going to to give this a try for Oklahoma. Should be a good learning experience and lots of areas that should look good with well done Ortho

Hey CW,

Thanks for your Google Drive link, I'm going to try out your Sweden overlay shortly. I've also coincidentally been building Swedish ortho for the first time ever over the past two days. Haven't actually tried it out apart from the first tile, so I'll be interested to see how SE2 shapes up compared to ARC (which is usually my favourite, I just thought I'd try something different this time).

I note that you posted some French pics - do you have an overlay/autogen for that country? It's one I'm really missing at the moment.

Quick question about Ortho4P3D - you mention using higher res around your Swedish airports. Does the high_zl_airports function work in Ortho4P3D? I have heard mixed reports, and have not tested it myself.

Cheers!

Oz
