Now you can have buildings, trees etc. for your UK photo-scenery.

Thanks for the HU Noddy.

I did mention it here the other day.

Got an Email from JF today saying it was released.

Might have to give in and buy it, but just spent a few quid on picking up some aircraft in the various Thanksgiving Day sales!

Cheers

Has anyone tried this yet? I already have Treescapes, so I will probably have to remove that otherwise I'd end up duplicating the trees.

Hi,
In regards to whether or not Rev-X will work with Treescapes.
In the FSX system each 1km square in the world has a specific grid number which is used to identify it. This number is used to define the autogen ( .agn ) file that matches a particular location. This means that filenames are predetermined and there can only be one agn file for any given 1km square.
ES-Treescapes uses the same autogen system as RevolutionX so installing RX to an area will overwrite the existing ES-T files.
However for each grid square RX agn files will contain the data for the trees (as with ES-T) and also the buildings so in most cases the results will be preferable.
If you reinstall ES-Treescapes after installing RX you will find that most buildings will disappear as the “trees plus buildings” files are overwritten by “trees only” files

Both products do a similar job using the same FSX systems and, unavoidably, using the same filenames. You should install one or the other but not both.

If you have any custom agn files (such as those from the VFRAddon project or ones you may have created yourself) that you wish to retain then these should be backed up before adding the area with RX and restored afterwards.
