EarthSimulations

Just to add.....Earth Simulations Sceneries have a new Steam compatible installer ( and P3D) and are working well in FSX Steam edition.

Hi All Earth simulations would like to firstly wish everyone a very Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year! We would also like to let everyone know that we updated our installers to work in the following simulator platforms: P3D FSX Steam Edition and of course FSX Standard and Acceleration Kindest regards Darren & Vikki PS: If you haven’t taken advantage yet our Christmas gift to this year or haven't seen....we’re offering the award winning Alderney scenery for just £1.00 ( that's about $1.56 or 1.28 euro) There’s also some great savings to still be made with most of our sceneries at 50% off until 4th January 2015. Even our latest and largest Photogenesis & Autogenesis for North West Scotland (16000km²) is at 30% off.

Hi Just to let you know that our installer has been updated ( Version 2.5 ) and is now fully compatible with P3D 2.4 ( Also FSX Steam edition.)

Hi Oliver The "Demo" you're seeing is definitely not from the ES scenery. I suspect it is an old UK2000 scenery demo that's still active on your system. Firstly try to identify the conflicting scenery and deactivate it, and then when it's gone check the order of the ES activated folders in FSX scenery library too ES-3D ES-SFX Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Airports\ES-EGNS-Ronaldsway Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Airports\ES-X9JU-Jurby Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Airports\ES-X9AN-Andreas Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Airports\ES-IOM-Helipads Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Airports\ES-X9MR-MountRule Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-3D Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-TFX Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-SFX Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-FX Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Photo Isle Of Man\ES-IOM-Terrain

Great to see some videos. Thanks for making and posting them!

Hi Richard / John If you're happy with installing a scenery manually ( with instructions to follow ) send us a note via the ES helpdesk and I can sort that out for you.

Thanks to the last three posters, really pleased you like the screenshots. I'm generally not well known for my screenshot taking abilities :unsure: but it's such a beautiful area of the UK it's hard to go wrong. I've put the Autogenesis 3D feature list below, just in case you weren't yet aware of everything that's included...I think I'd be correct in still saying that this all amounts to the highest specification large scale (16,500km² ) photo real scenery ever developed for flightsim...or are there some others to compare it to now that I've missed appearing?

There's no huge frustration Chris, I've been mildly irritated by Petraeus's "opinion" ..but that's it. He'd always have an answer for anything I could possibly say I'm sure. Besides, anyone who's content to believe that a landclass based scenery is more real than our products are... well... is just plain wrong...simple as that. (In my own very humble opinion of course) and is never going to purchase anything from us because truly accurate scenery just isn't what they're looking for. Here's a selection of our own taken in FSX Clutch Cargo. Showing downloadable 60cm photoGenEsis and AutoGenEsis combined ( I should probably add that they're completely unedited) WARNING: The following images contain more than one shade of green. We accept no responsibility for the damage this might do to your eyesight!

Right Petraeus...with that being true, and also just because of the pointless time waste it is debating varying shades of green with you, is the reason I'm not playing. Your challenge should you wish to take it up, is to find us all a better Scottish highlands photo real scenery.

Hmmm I've played this game before Petraeus...you'll say it's saturated, I'll go off and Google a dozen images to show it's not.You'll find another dozen where the shades different again. Anyone can play..., it's fun if you've got nothing better to be doing with your life. :rolleyes:

Petraeus....have you looked lately at your profile picture? :rolleyes:

We'd rather not try to speculate on that 777, mainly because we don't want to raise expectations but also because it's almost impossible to give a meaningful answer. It'll all be as fast as we can possibly manage is all I can say. This is also our vision for the project Chris. It's just not humanly possible for ourselves to do all we're doing and to model a whole bunch of bespoke landmarks at the same time. But the addition of a few notable landmark buildings in amongst the more generic Autogenesis 3D will make each area as instantly recognisable as the Isle of Man project is now to anyone that's ever been there in real life. So when do you start?

It's not possible for us to include Northern Ireland at the present time sadly. Unfortunately we're not as well catered for in the UK as developers in the US are, and we have to pay expensive licences for our source data here. a royalty rate of 25% or even 35% is not uncommon. In the case of Northern Ireland there isn't even the option of licensing the data (yet), and to buy it outright is simply out of reach. :( You've had no problems with running Isle of Man Chris, so I'm confident you're in for a pleasant surprise ;)

Yes I guess, although we hadn't thought of it in that term exactly. :rolleyes: We are moving to the opposite end of the UK next. Our reasoning is to interest those that have no interest in Scotland currently, but that do for England & Wales, and to show the difference updated data and our own colour enhanced photography can have over the existing GenX and FTX products that already cover the southern regions.

It's very similar yes, texture detail is the same and density of coverage is too.But over a very much larger 16,500km² area which incorporates the Scottish highlands as some of the UK's most spectacular scenery. The exception is that there are fewer bespoke landmark models to be seen compared to Isle of Man, which is very heavily laden with exact replicas of buildings and landmarks.The other difference is there are no highly detailed airports in this product, which is already covered well by other products that we sell. The thing I'll say is higher quality IMHO, is the nightlighting.
