Megascenery Earth Oregon

[Gdavis101]

I hadn't seen any mention of it here yet so I thought I would just let everyone know the western half of Oregon is out. Portland looks pretty good and the coast is beautiful!

I seen the oregon megaearth scenery earth. The question I have is how does this compare with the new ftx northwest scenery. I have around fourteen sections of megaearth for washington,arizona and california. The pictures of the columbia gorge look great with ftx. The colors with the megaearth are all washed out compared to ftx nothwest.

My guess is there is no comparison between the two. First of all, as you mentioned, Megascenery Earth is washed out in many cases and doesn't match well at all with even imagery I can get from Virtual Earth. Secondly, Megascenery Earth does a moderate job of inserting autogen into it's tiles, but it's sparse and does little to make the overall effect very realistic at low level.

The PNW Release is professionally done, much time and effort was put into every area of the release and the differences would be like night and day.

I hope it's better than the Louisiana scenery. That just plain sucked.

PNW is top notch.

It really is an apples and oranges comparison. If they put the kind of man-hours into Megascenery Earth that the Orbx crew did to FTX, it'd be pretty amazing too. For what it is, I guess it's fine.

They need to have a team editing the photography they get, and they need to have a team lining airports up before I buy a darn thing from those jokers. All my flights begin and/or end at airports, and why would I want to climb out over misplaced cartoons?
