Central North Island

[kilo52]

Gidday folks hope everyone had a great christmas and a happy new year to one and all, Created some scenery with SbuilderX of the area where i hail from in the central North Island (Turangi to be percise)
It only took about an hour to learn how to use SbuilderX and the object placement tool, i also started adding some objects to the whakapapa ski area side where i worked for many years
still progressing with building of the whakapapa ski area objects, Gotta lot to learn though but i`m very happy with what is accomplished so far.

Turangi






Waihi


Kuratau




Taumarunui












Central Plateau (Mt Tongariro - Mt Ngauruhoe)








Mt Ruapehu










Chateau - Whakapapa Village




Whakapapa Ski Area - Mt Ruapehu


Bottom Workshop - Whakapapa Ski Area




The old cat shed at Knoll Ridge - Whakapapa Ski Area

Where dose all the images come from , it is the same area that caused such a stink this time last month , images - textures , ORBX or GOGGLE , they are just as bad ... steal swipe , you cant post em , what they like is the .. , just dont step on toes ... unless you have knee pads and willing to get a brown nose .

Not very diplomatic , end off the day , PC's and WWW is such an open book , rules , laws change to suit the rich or the ruthless , how can they control this , .. welcome to 2012 , the entire concept off who own what has been corrupted since laws ruled and for the gaining for their own fill .

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the positive feed back, The scenery was created for personal use only as we all know the distribution of such
material is prohibited because of laws that are unfortunately out of our hands, I intend to distribute the autogen as freeware in the coming months
to be compatible with the default and VLC scenery, As for the photoreal scenery credit has to go to the creators of SbuilderX, Google and their satelite imagery
and with the chateau autogen to creator2003, Godfrey tier, Lawrie roache and any others who i have missed and not mention the great team at VLC NZ,
At the end of the day i`m just glad to have shared a part of something we are all very much passionate about.
