Complete Description
Prepare to soar the skies above Northern California with
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 at a level of realism that you’ve never
before experienced.
Never before has a photorealistic scenery product for the USA ever enabled you
to fly such a massive area of the USA and at such a level of realism
than MegaScenery Volume 3: Northern California.
HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF FLYING
Over 30,000 square miles (175 nm x 175 nm) of
photorealistic day and night scenery lets you explore this geographically
diverse region of the United States. From mountain ranges, to rolling hills, to
extensive farmlands, to spectacular West Coast Pacific shorelines.
DOZENS OF AIRPORTS AND BUSY AIRSPACE
3 busy international airports within 30 miles of each other, San Francisco
International, Oakland International and San Jose International make for
some busy airspace and busy flying whether it's in your Cessna 172 or 737
Jetliner. Make your approach into SFO right over the top of the San Andreas
Rift Zone. Whatever you're flying and wherever you're flying in this area,
you'll know you're in Northern California and you'll probably give
yourself a little pinch for a reality check.
Other major landmarks include:
Monterey & Monterey Peninsula, Santa Cruz Mountains, Diablo Mountains, Mt
Diablo, Sacramento Valley, Central Valley, Golden Gate, Alcatraz, Coastal
Ranges, San Francisco's famous Montara and San Bruno mountains, and a whole lot
more. If you can see it in real life... you'll see it
in MegaScenery Northern California.
NIGHT FLYING TOO:
And that's just the day flying experience. Experience this whole world again
with full NIGHT and DUSK/DAWN scenery. MegaScenery technology maps every
road and street and lines it with lighting for a spine tingling night
flying experience unmatched by any other scenery product on any other PC
flight simulation.

MegaScenery's lighting follows every "actual" road and street |
Just north or the bay area - Below
the tail you'll see lighting transitioning from non built up area to built up
area. |
Now this is what you call a "Sea of
Lights". All of MegaScenery features this lighting. |

Other Information
New Features
This version incorporates the latest added feature of MegaScenery which is 30
meter resolution Digital Elevation Model (mesh) resulting in even more realistic
mountains and valleys.
Installation
On NTFS systems this product installs itself to a compressed folder. The disk
usage is 6.5 Gb. Uncompressed it is 7.5 Gb. On FAT32 systems it installs
uncompressed. On FAT32/Windows 98/Me systems MegaScenery will only display if
season is set to summer. On Windows XP/NTFS systems, MegaScenery will display
for all 4 seasons.
If you are installing to both FS2004 and FS2002 MegaScenery's smart installer
will only install one set of files and automatically set the scenery file
pointers into both versions.**Important: This title does have a
compatiblity issue with FS2002, that being misalignment of default FS2002
objects. While realignment of these objects was possible with FS2004 it is not
with FS2002. |
