OK, here we go! Just in time for Christmas!

Oh wow, was Toronto announced previously or is that just a nice surprise?

The video of Vancouver only seems to cover downtown Vancouver:

 

If you are from Vancouver and you buy this, can you check to see if major buildings, shopping centers, and bridges in central Vancouver (south of downtown), Richmond, Burnaby are also covered? Nothing is shown for central Vancouver, Richmond and Burnaby.  Richmond in particular I am interested to know what buildings and bridges are modeled because it's on the landing path for CYVR, and I also like to land the floatplane at the seaplane terminal next to CYVR (which also cuts through Richmond).

It only covers downtown Vancouver.. but it combines nicely with the Vancouver PG replacement mods from CLI4D:

Vancouver Bridges is still good, but Vancouver Port can be disabled.

Also included is a cleanup of downtown Victoria, which is most welcome!  🙂

I know that this is a thread about the Vancouver scenery but I'd be interested in hearing more about the Toronto scenery too. Specifically, does it play nice with the FSimStudios Billy Bishop Airport (CYTZ) or would I need to uninstall that and revert to the Asobo version of Billy Bishop?

Edit: Answered my own question. Right from SamScene's website:
>  It is recommended to be used with FsimStudios Toronto City Airport scenery

How does the Toronto scenery compare to the free one from Roman Designs?

I would say that SamScene3D is a notch above.. very well done!  If you purchase their Vancouver scenery, you get Toronto for under $10.. 😉

SamScene offers crisp, detailed buildings.. RD has more the slightly murky look of PG scenery.

For that, the CN Tower is a bit "fat around the bottom", maybe in an effort to cover up the original..

looks beautiful, I have his Manhattan.

[Midnight Music 252]

I was just in Vancouver IRL, this looks exactly like it! I will purchase this one.

Agreed. Being in Waterloo, I will absolutely have to pick up the Toronto scenery so it makes total sense to buy the Vancouver one as well in the bundle (especially since I have all of the FSimStudios sceneries that complement the SamScene addons). Just waiting for them to appear on either Orbx or Flightsim.to.

Their Hong Kong scenery is great so no doubt this will also be really good ... Always looking forward to better representations of Toronto :) ... Pretty awesome CYTZ, CYYZ and the city are well covered now :)
