Hello Asheroo, unluckily you are right. I can send you my light cultivation, if you send me your email address. It blends well with the ORBX new scenery 1.2 .

The size is 3 MB.

Regards,

Thomas.

ORBX now published version 1.2 of KCGX Meigs. It can be updated via FTX central.

Customers of the steam DLC version will see this update within steam shortly, according to Ed Correia.

This update adds autogen buildings and trees.

See details in the ORBX Forum announcements for details.

Colorado scenery is great! I.e. look at the gas station and the tanks in Aspen Pitkin!

Sailing at Monte Baldo / Gardasee Italy.

Cultivation with 500 000 visible trees.

Hello BennyBoy,

though this screenshot is only done with normal cultivation, it might give an idea how magnificent (and better) the enhanced ORBX scenery could get.

autobahn.shp is just an example. You can generate it i.e. with QGIS.

A good article to generate a shp file: google for "Creating Shapefiles in QGIS"

whitav8

thank you for your hints.

Regarding the plants, I found that additional randomness looks more natural.

You could try this:

#Plants
PlacePointsInPolygon|landuse="forest"|0.00015;0.00015|0.7;0.7
#
CreateAF2Plant|landuse="forest" And FRAND >= 0.5|10;24|broadleaf
CreateAF2Plant|landuse="forest" And FRAND < 0.5|10;22|conifer

Additionaly you might define a shape, where you want to exclude buildings or trees (taken from recent tip of Arno himself):

# Load Shapefile that defines an area like airports or motorways
# that should filter out objects like trees etc.

ImportOGR|autobahn.shp|*|*|NOREPROJ

# Filter out the buildings, lights and plants that are within
# the specified polygon
AddAttributeIfInside|building="*"|FROMFILE="autobahn.shp"|String;skip|yes
AddAttributeIfInside|point="light"|FROMFILE="autobahn.shp"|String;skip|yes
AddAttributeIfInside|FTYPE="POINT" And landuse="forest"|FROMFILE="autobahn.shp"|String;skip|yes

UnloadFeatures|skip="yes"

Start from EDDM early in the morning, heading Italy.

To bring a little bit more structure into the street lighting, I changed some street lamp types to slightly violet or greenish.

This is the part of the ScenProc file which shows how it is done:

#Lights

PlacePointsAlongLine|highway="primary"|CONTINUOUS|30;30|5;5|25|String;point|olight|hdg

Lots of houses. See the oval area on the right: the Oktoberfest is just over ...

Done with ScenProc.

Hi Ray,

thank you for your nice comment.

The .toc file also covers the rest of Munich, has 4 000 000 lines of code and is 150 MB big, zipped 11 MB small.

Beside 250 000 plants it also contains 140 000 lights.

Thomas

Munich south in the evening, approaching the Alps.

A shot I generated with SceneProc from Munich, based on OSM data. Autobahn is colored in orange.

Some 150 000 trees and 150k buildings. Framerate is still above 200 fps.
