Photorealistic scenery for Canada?

**magnetite** · 12-13-2009, 04:40 PM

I currently have UTX Canada, but I'm not sure if it's photorealistic or not. Says it uses aerial and satellite imagery. I know there's MegaScenery for certain parts of the US and they look pretty real. However, not seeing any for Canada. Anyone know of any photorealistic scenery addons for Canada?

You can try doing a GOOGLE search with the string "FSX photoreal scenery Canada". I just did it, and came up with over 50,000 "hits". Many of them don't really apply to Canada, of course, but it should keep you busy going to some of the links shown as to finding out what is available.

Hi Magnetite,I am a big fan of "bush flying" so Canada is one of my absolute favorite places to fly! I stay mostly out west in AB,BC or NWT areas and it has some great sceneries available.Google "Tongass Fjords" or go to FSAddons.com they sell the Tongass addon along with stuff like Vancouver+ and very soon ORBx FTX is going to release their Pacific North West package that is in beta right now but it will be the same quality as their other packages for Australia.There is a small airport pack that I've been using called Captain Keith's Sandspit Airport available here in the pilot's shop for $10.bucks that is actually pretty nice also!Hope this points you in the right direction!

I picked up Ground Environment X, however, I'm not sure whether it's enabled or not. UTX shows what's enabled in it's setup menu.

However, with GEX, under the scenery library, it shows all the UTX scenery except I don't see any GEX textures or scenery.

How do I tell if it's enabled or not?

If you used the GEX user interface to "install" the textures into FSX, it's "enabled". The textures just get COPIED into FSX. There is NO Scenery Library entry for GEX in FSX.
