Mountain Rock Textures

[silverheels2]

Hi all:

I have been running FSX now for about 7 years and I have my installation quite good. I am running UTX, GEX, mesh addons, etc. I did try Orbx but their stuff just didn't work out for me. The one area I am not happy with FSX is the mountain terrain where the surface is rocks. The textures seem coarse and the color isn't right. Areas with vegetation are satisfactory, but the rocky terrain just doesn't look right. Does anyone have ideas on add on textures for that narrow rocky area? Payware or freeware is ok.

Thanks in advance

Rick

Maybe Freemeshx could help - not got it myself but screenshots look good in rocky areas. Big download tho

Try the new Freeware textures by Aime Leclerc.

Thanks everyone for your responses. I investigated Top Gun's suggestion to look at Aime Leclerc's work and was very pleased to find that Aime had developed wide ranging Texture upgrades as well as rock Texture upgrades. The rock Textures were a noticeable, immediate upgrade on GEX/UTX. I'm still looking at the general Texture upgrades.

Thanks again

Hi all (again):

After experimenting with the Leclercq textures it seems that they are in conflict with either GTX or UTX. I notice that the textures are installed in Scenery/World/Texture, but GEX/UTX don't use some or all of those textures. I'm puzzled. Does that sound right?

Thanks

Rick
