No need to worry - all good, really.

Godzone's sceneries are, have always been and will hopefully continue to be absolutely top class! Fully worth the money.

Super cool!

That's true. Although Japan has some fantastic landscapes, the current houses and buildings are in most cases absolutely boring, rather unattractive and built primarily functional. Aside a very small number, almost all of the traditional houses are no longer existing - be it due to the fact that Japan is hit by earthquakes and various other natural disasters on a regular base or due to the fact that lots of old and traditional infrastructure was destroyed during and/or after WWII. Now i am not referring to temples or so here but the vast majority of casual houses and buildings that shape today's japanese landscapes. However, the good thing is, that those houses and buildings could be remodelled rather easily as autogen-types for X-Plane. And - another good thing: Lots of these rather simple types of houses, which are typical for Japan nowadays, are also quite common to Taiwan, South Korea and parts of China, which means that they could be used to cover a very large area.

That's magic! WOW!

+1 Focusing on landclass and autogen appears a great way to go in the future for sure, as it indeed looks truely convincing all over the place and quite immersive when it comes down to the task of representing the "outside world" in a realistic way within the realms of XPlane!

Very realistic looking scenery-shots!

Great shots!

Very atmospheric here!

Beautiful!

Looking better and better Tony!

Thanks! As the old saying goes: Patience is a virtue... Now all i have to do is keeping it in mind and remember!

Guess You're right! Cheers

Nice comparision! ... but i still hope this is work in progress - because honestly: i don't understand why these really good an reliable functions, that obviously quite a number of members/users really liked and appreciated very much have/had to be removed. but sure, if it is what it is i sure'll get used to it all again.

+1 and honestly - and genereally speaking: the new layout of the website (forums) is somewhat rather confusing then help/ useful.

Yes, please bring it back! Thank You! Not sure: But there is some kind of remark on top of my post saying "hidden" ... does this mean my post here is hidden, or does this mean, that i can - if i wished to - hide it? Well, hope all is readable ... and maybe it is only because of the currently ongoing forum-maintenance ...

Great shots - really great!

Nice one!

Now that looks nice indeed!

Looking super!

Great video, and just in case: It was also mentioned here, at #59: http://www.avsim.com/topic/504955-blue-sky-star-making-entire-us-orthos/page-4#entry3580169

Cool!

Fantastic shots!

THIS is super great. I am always stunned and surprised to see what is possible in X-Plane scenerywise - i'd really wish that rather sooner than later all these many superb add-ons could lead to the release of some kind of "global" scenery standard(s) within X- Plane. :smile:

Thanks a lot Tony for this detailed reply rom Yours! And yes ... i also wisehd there were some more cooperation between developers. Especially as long as it is more about free/donationware rather than payware. Although even if it was payware there sure might be some options on the table for some decent cooperation every now and then. Anyways Tony, once again: Thank You very much for Your reply!
