Recommended Posts

Now that NRM is out in includes and area where we my Dad once built a summer home. I wanted to check it out and see how it compares to the real thing. Excellent job in the Scenery guys. This is awesome to be able to explore these places...  ;D

Over Kelowna Airport, this part of British Columbia is very arid so not as many trees:

Shot of the bridge from Vancouver. The deepest point of the bridge pilons is 60 metres so the lake is really deep in the middle:

I switched over to BOB and took a walk on our old beach. Everything looks pretty much what I remember. Makes me want to take the boat out again.. ;D

Bauties mate, and thanks for the information about how close the scenery compares to real life!

I think ORBX made their finest piece of scenery yet (which is hardly belivable considering how good their other sceneries are already).

This one is definitely on my whish list!
