teecee Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Has anyone tried the Nextmap UK mesh?.. almost looks too good to be true.. Teecee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtrack Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Pros -Includes Scotland Plus mesh for various outliers -- Scilly Isles- Orkneys- Shetland- Foula- St Kilda- Sula Sgeir- North Rona- Sule & Stack Skerry- Coquet Island- Flatholm- SteepholmDoes not cover -- Northern Ireland- Isle of Man- Channel Islands- Lundy Island- Stack Skerry- Boreray, Stac An Armin, Stac Lee. Please note -Some of the claims made on the website are factually incorrect.The product title is technically incorrect -The mesh only covers Great Britain.Mesh vertical resolution is to nearest 1/4 metre, (not 1/25th as claimed).Mesh is 256 times more detailed than FSX default, (not 128 times as claimed).

Dave_YVR Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Another big con and reason enough for me to remove the mesh is that you will find many airports on plateaus. Looks great while flying around, not so much while on approach etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfko Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Why should someone want to install an extra mesh? FTX England already has 10m Holger-Mesh included! Or could it be that you don't have FTX England installed? Wolfgang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teecee Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 "Why should someone want to install an extra mesh?" If there is a better mesh for the UK (note this, for the UK.. not England) it would improve ireland, which still has default mesh I believe..Teecee.

wolfko Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hi Tecee, All the FTX UK products come with custom mesh (England & Wales 10m, Scotland 20m). I'm not sure if you relly see a difference between a 4.75m and 10m mesh. Since both of the Irelands are not part of the UK I'm nut sure if they will be improved bx the Nextmap UK Mesh.

gandy Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I have a 4.75m mesh for England and Wales but i cant share it as it belongs to a non Orbx addon a brought ages ago but i dont really use it as for me to 100% happy with a mesh for the UK i would need it to be 1meter just so i can see the hill i live on, on a 4.75meter its a gental slope and a 10m mesh.. its flat but im still happy and thats the main thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olderndirt Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Installed the NextMap UK while using only default - really made that perk up. Now with FTXGlobal, it's very good and I do have Scotland but no appreciable difference. All my mesh is FSGenesis - FSGlobal rates just as good but they're all governed by the mapping material available so the LOD is all squeezed out.

GlennH Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Well, Southern Ireland is not part of the uk so makes sense really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teecee Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 not really. It is split politically, but Ireland is Ireland.. so why split it in the sim? Teecee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
