FSAddon Publishing will stop selling its products via third party distributors as of January 1st, 2017 ! That means you will no longer be able to buy FSAddon products from simMarket, Aerosoft, Flight1 and other such general webshops. Instead you will find everything FSAddon produce on their own (Shopify powered) webshop. https://fsaddon-publishing.myshopify.com A Quote From Francois Dumas ""I understand that this may be somewhat of a disappointment to customers who prefer to buy at the large resellers, and we'll probably even lose some customers (and yes, some visibility), but the fact is that I am running all this on my own. The combination of an ever shrinking FS market, high cost of the third party selling, high workload on all the administration (not the least because of EU tax rules), my 'other' activities (such as moving house and building a place in Italy and other work), (my) age induced slow reduction of energy....... all for a few hundred bucks a month just doesn't justify it anymore. So instead of spending energy on all that, I'll now focus on my own webshop ONLY, with the added advantage for most authors of earning higher percentages that will offset lower sales because of not being in the big warehouses. (As I do not have any overhead, I charge a lot less for selling products than the competition does. This advantage goes 100% to my authors). At the same time I have added new payment gateways, assuring safe and industry approved financial transactions, am working on improving server space and download speed, building new installers and also working on more freeware projects. The only exception is our (very modest) sales via Steam and Dovetail Games, currently only Ben Gurion X Airport. Hoping to see you check our shop and forums regularly, and helping spread the word about the great FSAddon products I'd like to thank you all for being our loyal customers for the past 12 years. And last but not least I'd also like to thank especially simMarket and Aerosoft for their professional help in selling them for all these years."" Kindest regards, Francois

FSAddon Publishing has released the long-awaited WACO bi-plane collection by Simon Smeiman. Simon has outdone himself once again in the amount of detail, special animations and effects, and has also added some unique models to the pack. The FSAddon WACO Collection is made up of no less than 8 different models, all with different liveries and animations. The WACO's modeled are the ATO, CTO, QF2, UPF, YMF-5, YMF-5D Super. And on top of that a YMF-5 Floatplane and the famous Jet Waco !!! So yes, 'Taperwings' included ! And to make things even more interesting, also including some FREE extra's! How about the WACO CG-4A WW2 glider? And not just one, but 3 differentvariants and 2 different models! And last but not least, Simon has made the included 'cargo' Willys jeep driveable too, so you can make a tour of the landing zone! All in all FSAddon are offering a unique package, even for current owners of other WACO's and they invite you to have a look at their product page on the FSAddon Publishing webshop (the sole and unique distribution point ) .

Only seen this now. So sorry to hear it, Garry always was a very enthusiastic flightsim supporter and contributor !! Rest in Peace Garry.

Yes, it works, but you'll have to install it yourself I'm afraid. The Installer and Configurator do not work for P3D.

FSAddon Publishing offers 50% discount on ALL of its products until January 3rd 2016...... so rush over and get you some DISCOUNT !! (Offer valid through our own shop AND through simMarket.com only)

Rest in Peace, Mr. Avsim. Without your perseverance the flightsim communities of today wouldn't be what they are.

Damn ! :-( Tom, we may have had our differences but this comes as a blow.To me personally, to AVSIM and to the entire FS community worldwide I am sure. No need to waste words, just wishing you all the best and wishing you an ending without pain and anxiety. Thoughts also go to your family. Good vibes sent across the pond, whatever that may mean. Hope it helps a little. Warm regards, Francois

Orcas of course...... but that's because we sell it ;-)To be honest, you should get BOTH. Each has its specific attractiveness. Emma is a fantasy airfield, but with lots of added features such as glider towing, moving objects and built-in sounds.And the biggest Virtual Flying Club on the internet attached to it ;-)Orcas Island on the other hand, by the same author, is all about a REAL airfield on a real island and accurate to every detail, providing the same immersion and moods as every Georender scenery does. There are no sounds (but you can add FSE sounds), but lots of animatons (the new Geomotion ones !) and a whole island with accurate photo textures to discover.Contrary to another post in this thread, there is NO mesh included. Orcas, like ALL georender sceneries, is built on the default MS mesh.New Geodrender and other titles published by FSAddon.com will included highres mesh and add the final missing bit in perfect scenery :-)Kind regards,FrancoisCreative Directorwww.FSAddon.com"No-stress nature flying"[br]http://www.fssupport.com/images/moose4.gif[link:www.fsaddon.com/]FSAddon.com][/b

Without going into LOD's, SRTM, interpolation and all other 'difficult' words and expressions, I'd just like to approach the issue from the user's perspective. I live in the mountains in Europe part of the year, and know some places as the back of my hand.What I do when evaluating mesh (and yes, I am a sucker for mountains so I get all the mesh I can put my hands on) is just go with my virtual aircraft to those places I know so well and 'look'.So far I have found the Thierry Pignot mesh (which is sold by LAGO as TerraMesh) to be the most accurate for the places I looked (!). The new SRTM mesh comes close, but some of the mountains just look ridiculous. I guess Thierry has either corrected this or used better data.FYI, I looked around Interlaken in Switzerland, especially at the Jungfrau region, and around Courchevel/Meribel in France.Seeing the speed with which the SRTM meshes have been published lately I cannot imagine that these have been corrcted for errors other than in an automated way.... and taht would leave plenty of 'holes' compared to the real world IMHO.Cheers,:-outta Francois :-wave[table border=0 cellpadding=10 cellspacing=0][tr][td valign=bottom" align="center]"At home in the wild"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:avsim.com/alaska/alaska_052.htm]Don's Alaskan Bush Charters]"Beavers Lead the Way"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][br][tr][td valign=top" align="center]http://www.fssupport.com/images/moose4.gif[/td][td valign="top" align="left" colspan=2][/td][tr][/table

For one, it is now possible to run TWO 3D view windows (one on each monitor) without the killing drop in fps it would cause on FS2002. ;-):-outta Francois :-wave[table border=0 cellpadding=10 cellspacing=0][tr][td valign=bottom" align="center]"At home in the wild"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:avsim.com/alaska/alaska_052.htm]Don's Alaskan Bush Charters]"Beavers Lead the Way"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][br][tr][td valign=top" align="center]http://www.fssupport.com/images/moose4.gif[/td][td valign="top" align="left" colspan=2][/td][tr][/table
