The 64m LOD took all night to compile and takes about 600mb space. The verdict is out as to whether mesh at this resolution is worthwhile. What amazed me was that frame rates were barely affected. I managed to create a group of islands at an image stride & LOD of 64 meters which gave me a buzz this morning. My CFS3 terrain experiments still continue. In the meantime I hope to post a bit more on aircraft creation in the Biff Diaries in the next couple of weeks. I did start to create a terrain map for the Philippines, however creating the coastline vectors is a massive task. If one takes a look at the coast lines in FSX they are all fairly lo-res coastlines. I think the only way they can be reduced (not eliminated) is to use hand drawn coast line vectors, a massive task. This can be seen occasionally in the CFS3 PTO Solomons theatre. The lo-res terrain lods intersecting with the high-res SWBD data causes the water polys to bend where they intersect with with the terrain causing lines to appear. The terrain features a LOD system, unfortunately the water system doesn't. The CFS3 terrain SDK tools and CFS3 scenery engine was not designed with SRTM & SWBD data in mind. The problem with lines on water looks as if it will be difficult to get rid of.

I will also be continuing work on my landclass system and integrating the above into it. It would be illegal to distribute such to others as not every CFS3 user owns FSX.

For copyright reasons it is best NOT to use and mod FSX textures. As for trees it's a matter of motivating myself to take a few photographs of trees (I'm surrounded by them) for the textures & I will composite ground textures from a variety of free sources including hand painting some of my own.

I still intend to work on my scenery with new trees & textures. I will be switching between activities until I recover next year. I have also switched over to mainly focusing on aircraft modeling for a few weeks. Only the PFD, MFD and GCU 475 Unit have a 2D representation.I have eased up on scenery creation for a few weeks, mainly given radiotherapy & its effects.
