• A quick fix North of Dunedin

  By Lyndiman on September 16, 2017 • ( 3 )

  There’s another issue to the north of Dunedin. This is a strange little mountain with very steep cliffs. Another issue from the custom mesh I’ve used. Simply copy over the files in -46+170 – but don’t touch the large textures… Read More ›

• A couple of South Island Fixes

  By Lyndiman on September 7, 2017 • ( 1 )

  

  Here’s a couple of sneaky issues that crept into the South Island. The first is bad terrain mesh south of Dunedin. If you’ve noticed a large cliff, this will fix that. The second issue is missing overlay data for a… Read More ›

• 3 West Coast Airports

  By Lyndiman on August 29, 2017 • ( 1 )

  

  I’ve put together 3 simple airports for the west coast, Westport, Greymouth and Hokitika. These  use default objects and correct some issues compared to the real-world location of runways etc.

• Flying to a new domain

  Thanks to those that have donated, I’ve transferred this site to a paid service with its own domain! Soon I’ll release links to updated airports using default objects for Westport, Greymouth and Hokitika. These will align the objects correctly with… Read More ›

  The default airfield at Wanaka is wonky! Here’s a new version to match up to the Ortho!

• Patch: Hawkes Bay Black Square

  By Lyndiman on August 27, 2017 • ( 1 )

  

  The tile -40+176 around the Hawkes Bay has a black square in my version, so it probably does on yours too! 

• Otago Patch: Chip off the old block

  By Lyndiman on August 26, 2017 • ( 6 )

  

  Here’s another patch which is actually new scenery, as this tile is missing from the original release. It’s a really small chip out of Otago,  just south of Oamaru and a must have for fliers out of NZOU. Here’s the beforehand… Read More ›

• Dunedin terrain patch

  By Lyndiman on August 24, 2017 • ( 3 )

  

  Another quick patch for the South Island Ortho Pack. This time it’s another weird blip in the terrain. I’ve created a quick patch which you can copy over the tile files with – leave the big texture folder where it… Read More ›

• Photo runway at Omarama Airfield

  By Lyndiman on August 23, 2017 • ( 6 )

  

  Using ortho-scenery offers an interesting opportunity to disregard X-Plane airport textures and instead use the ortho to show where dirt or grass runways are. I’ve done a quick test of this at Omarama and quite like the results.

• Fixing wonky issues in Fiordland

  By Lyndiman on August 23, 2017 • ( 0 )

  

  I received an email today that informed me that Fiordland has issues. This wasn’t helped by the fact that I seem to be having issues running the right version of python for FSEconomy and Ortho4XP. I spent more time trying… Read More ›
