Yes CB and I honestly couldn't say if its worth it mate. I have been less than impressed.. let's put it that way :think:
You may see more benefit than I if you get around a bit.. eg to areas not covered by the norm that suffer from the default M$ textures but I have so many bits of addon scenery on here now that I've got to try hard to find 'one of these places' and in all honesty.. I can't be bothered mate

I too am hoping to buy this package, if or when it comes on CD.DaveB wrote:Yes CB and I honestly couldn't say if its worth it mate. I have been less than impressed.. let's put it that way :think:
As a flyer who spends most of his time flying longhaul to destinations that M$ didnt go near, i have a feeling i will benefit.
I have sen many shots of it that i love. I dont have much addon scenery that coveres large areas, like VFR England and Wales, just addons like Gatwick Pro, and World Airports.

I have seen this and I think it's pretty good, much better with roads of europe and uk I have VFR I think it needs a big rebuild as the textures lack anything of note, add their own autogen and you fly by numbers single ones at that!! hey if you want proper VFR scenery get that freeware Canarysim its bloody good and night lit as well!!!

Thanks chaps, I'll hold fire for the time being.
I have tried Reality Pack before and found it to be very cartoon like. I want textures that look good on the ground as well as in the air and a lot of these texture replacements look awful on the ground.

Hi CB..
I have VFRPhoto installed on both my flying systems mate so I've chosen the default load.. Tacoma. OK.. it's not what you wanted but I hope you can see what difference it makes
First shot is with NO GE..
This is WITH GE installed..
It doesn't seem conclusive Chris but that's how I see it by and large. Settings are not the same on both pc's but they're close
