Schipol
« on: September 14, 2009, 11:25:04 pm »
Can anyone recommend a good freeware improvement for EHAM? I have been using the Project X material to improve the default version and although this seems to me to be OK in many ways, I am finding that many of the heavy aircraft at the gates have their noses embedded in the terminal building!!

Thanks,

Ian

Ian,

Are you using FS9 or FSX? I know that for FS9 the best freeware improvement will be the NL2000 scenery for all of the Netherlands, it's a big download but well worth it ;)

As for FSX, I don't think NL2000 is compatible with it, unless there's a new version. Anyone know any different?

However, there are a couple of FSX improvements available here that you might wish to try...

Hi Dominic

I am using FS9. Will take a look at what you suggest although it does appear to be a huge download. Will such a size of download not have a marked impact on frame rates?

It is detailed scenery but not too bad on frames - the huge download is because it includes airports AND details for ports, towns etc for the entire country with photorealistic ground textures ;)

Try it and see - you can always remove it if it slows things down too much!

NL-2000 is really amazing.
A trip report (not mine):
http://flightsim.com/main/feature/nl20003.htm

Current V3 is not FSX compatible (which is one of two reasons why I don't have it installed :(), but V4 will be.
V4 is currently in its beta stage, but no release date yet...
