Turnip Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I just flew around Launceston (TAZ) and there are two dudes at the door of the terminal. There's one, moving around and talking on his cell phone and another fat dude. He's obviously been eating at the airport too much. BTW: What's with the billboard advertising MSFS??? Shouldn't it read FTX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hall Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Brilliant, Awesome. Check out the approach from the south, I think they have added more stuff there too, small trees, bush's, the south esk river. This will be home field for a while, just love it, thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I have a private HD 50cm/pixel version of the airport ground terrain installed on my laptop. I did not release it because it's quite a large file. Tell you what though, the best screenshot of YMLT will score themselves a copy of my YMLT-HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solareagle Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Is this a secret contest only for those who view this thread? Boy, I hope whoever wins shares the file with me, though it smells like a can of worms, cuz I'm sure everybody is going to want one! You know, if that file is smaller than 50MB, I could unofficially host it for those that are interested. I'll get to work on my screenshot though.

Turnip Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 Here's #2. A little "inversion therapy" never hurt anyone. It gave that guy on the phone something to talk about. http://www.fsfiles.org/imagehost/uploads/1213948525.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falknis Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I thought you were'nt allowed to use your mobile phone until you are well inside the terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmrich28 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 John, why not just make that "special" ground texture available to all that have the room for it? Or is it just too big to use up space on a server? just curious. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it just too big to use up space on a server? just curious. Dave Currently at 100% compression it is a 400MB file, and we don't have the bandwidth to spare with the demand on our servers following 1.2 release. I might do a 95% version which should see the size come down to about 250MB or so. Watch this space - rather busy atm working on YMML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmrich28 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 thanks for the under 2 minute reply. ya I thought there was a legit reason.

Watch this space - rather busy atm working on YMML Crazy suggestion I know, but why not distribute an unofficial 'extra' extra like this via P2P? The link would still come from here, and the love could be shared along with the bandwidth. The only reason I suggest something like this is because it sounds like it's too big for you to release as an official extra, yet I am sure many would love to get their hands on it. I don't suppose it's been given the work over (eg. seasons & stuff) like the offical version? (or am I dreaming ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainey Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Love Launnie Airport now! Did a nice clean VFR flight from Hobart to Launceston in the 737, everything about the flight was just picture perfect, apart from my sketchy approach... but the graphics were lovely!
