I am slowly coming around to the idea of seasonal textures, but there's still the issue of the file size -- at the moment the Subscription amounts to about 6.5 GB, which would be 25 GB with seasonal textures. And then there's the decision of what to match seasons to. And then, on top of that, there's still the very strong belief that New Zealand is some kind of English countryside all year round, green and lush, but take a look at those great Wairarapa airshow pics, that's what a lot of NZ is like for half the year. My desktop pic last month was an old shot of my kids at the Wanaka airshow, way back when, and it amuses me to have people ask why my Wanaka doesn't look like Orbx's green version.

I do like the concept of 'productX', I am thinking of changing my name to robx...

It was very nice for Frank to pass on the HU , it is amazing it taken to the guys over there enough even to get a footing, I personal know four people , one is a Kiwi and they live around Munich area ... think its the Beer smile.gif , another - Armin was a neighbour here gawd , five six years back and before he left to return home spent many hours watching FS and then the build , think it was Hamilton for Mike.
