Thread: Free Scenery Fixes and Addons

    Jan, in the Reddit posts, the download links are always posted by the author in the comments section, so you usually always have to click on the blue bar that reads "View Entire Discussion" to find the post with the download link.

    In the case of Devil's Tower, you can also download it from here: https://flightsim.to/file/186/devil-s-tower


    Lately, these are all of the sites/pages I routinely check once or twice a day for new MSFS addons:

    https://flightsim.to/
    https://www.msfsaddons.org/
    https://www.reddit.com/r/FS2020Creation/
    https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c...rld-discovery/
    https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c/flying/airports/
    https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c...nshot-gallery/
    ...as well as the MSFS Aircraft and MSFS Scenery sections of the https://www.flightsim.com library (it has been wonderful to see Neil Birch doing his line of UK farm strips now for MSFS)


    "Baddweapon", on the MSFS forums, routinely updates his Iceland and Alaska scenery overhauls every few to several days, so it is always worth keeping track of them to see when the next updated/expanded version is released (he has done wonders!). He also just released an updated version of his fantastic Dead Cow Lakebed STOL Competition airfield.

    I just found a very promising KILM over at flightsim.to too. It's a favorite destination when I want a nice relaxing trip to the beach.

    Edit: Nevermind... The terminal building looks nice, but there's too much else that doesn't work well.

    Thank you John and John ! Got it!

    And thanks John for explaining about Reddit and other links. Amazing how much freeware stuff is already available for MSFS in such short time (i suppose the're all alpha/beta testers...) By now i still haven't even discovered half of what's going on behind the curtains of MSFS.

    Although not exactly sure what it's all about yet i signed up at Discord.

    For anybody interested here's the default bit sorry looking Devil's Tower:



    The real thing up ahead :


    What a beauty ! Congrats and thanks to the dev ! :






    All of s sudden i have a strong hunkering for mashed potatoes...I might watch the movie again tonight..

    Thanks much again, gentlemen !

    cheers,

    This is great stuff! I know of a recent payware offering which pales compared to this freeware!

    Er, I would be surprised if this repaint does not get removed from the download files!!

    https://www.nexusmods.com/microsoftf...lator/mods/235

    I would post a screenshot, but am sure the moderator would not be pleased. NC

    Nothing wrong with people who want to play these games the way they want to play them.

    All this hostility, and for what? And name calling, really guys? Because someone uploaded a repaint you don't like to a completely different website?

    I posted about the paint, not because I don't like it, but (considering the PC atmosphere today) I was surprised it is there for download. I think the paint is hilarious. Btw, I contacted the guy who uploaded it to ask what the lettering on the tail, and the cartoon underneath the aircraft meant? He replied, explaining that the tail lettering meant, "Wassup!", and the cartoon means "Have fun!" NC

    I was referring to some of the other comments that seemed to be in response to your posting of the repaint. Maybe I misread the tone, just seemed like there were some needlessly hostile comments towards people who don't enjoy this hobby the same way we do.

    Thank you for sharing that info, and while I agree with you that it's not really my thing, seems like a nice repaint with a positive message, if you are into that sort of thing.. whatever "that sort of thing" is, I can't keep up with the youngins anymore

    Tree height modification (Shorter, more realistic trees)

    The author, Adnan Arif, has found a file in MSFS that controls the range of heights used to generate the heights of trees of various species. For example, for deciduous trees, the range of 15 to 20 feet he reduces to 12 to 16 feet.

    Swapping this single xml file results in a more realistic landscape. And it sure makes it easier to find your house!

    We should be welcoming the gamers, not mocking them. Today's curious gamer is tomorrow's flight sim fanatic. Us 50-to-80-year-old simmers who grew up on Sublogic's Flight Sim II are eventually going to all die and where's the genre then?

    Meanwhile, still waiting on a warbird, but maybe this meets halfway in the meantime.

    That's interesting, because most of the deciduous trees by my house are around 50 ft to 60 ft tall. It's an old neighborhood and the trees are well established. I guess if you live in a new build neighborhood, most of the trees are that small.

  18. #68
    What would really be nice would be to have a random mix between the old/tall trees and the newer/shorter ones. Have a look at the neighborhood in this link. Some of the trees are young, but some are 100+ years old and absolutely massive!

    I have two trees behind my house that, according to my drone's altimeter, are over 120 feet tall. We do trees big in the PNW.

    Indeed..
    & what is a 'true' simmer?

    We are all playing the same 'game', as it were!

    Just because we are having fun, do not judge us. Simming is all about Fun Fact & Fiction.. we are not false simmers because of that..

    True simmers, than, according to you, will never fly a Cessna with a joystick!.. How can that be true, if you do?

    The hostility has to do with the wording on the aircraft. Wording that involves profanity is not tolerated at SOH. If the aircraft paint were submitted here, it would never have made it to the download section. The messages regarding the paint scheme are a reminder regarding what is acceptable and what is not.

    Agreed (about swear words). Not something I think is really funny or care about seeing. Then again, I'm 57, not 12-15... sigh

    As far as trees, heck, trees around me (NE, USA) reach thirty feet tall in 20 years, the general canopy around me (deciduous/coniferous) is easily 30 ft to 50 ft tall. 12 to 15 foot tall trees would only be found in a nursery, or approaching the treeline on a mountain.

    This looks great. Looking forward to flying the new scenery. Being a Canadian expat living in SoCal and having spent time in Toronto watching the Maple Leafs play I have always considered Toronto to be Canada's version of LA.
