If you ever wonder where I built my FScene Emma Residence,
have a look here.
Parking-lot and Copter field available.
there's a forum too: http://forums.simflight.com/viewforum.php?f=17
All invited!
It's near Sanderson.
:wink:
PS: the red one on the parking lot is my testa-rossa.

Hi Francois,
just ordered emma field.
You know i am not a real/virtual pilot, but like to
start FVR.
How can I join this EFFC?

It was not hard at all, so here is a file with only hard winter ground textures.
:!: Backup your normal FScene-Europe files, in case you
afterwards do not like so much snow. :!:
:shock: look under 'free patch' (first item) in the main menu of my website:
http://www.home.quicknet.nl/qn/prive/rfaber
Let me know your opinion, before I put this free
patch on the internet.

Henrik is right.
In the X-mas holidays I will
check the codes and publish a list here.

Now we have to wait for more 'snow-requests'
It is quite a job to do and I would prefer to
do it for more that let's say 20 people, fair enough i think. :?

ok, that's 1 against.

Hi Guido,
I have made the FScene Projects to use at the same time,
so no problem.
-
:shock: We have a problem for every solution:
One ( and only) user in the UK complaints about the absence of snow in
his area. I checked FS2002 with the original ground textures active
and I can only agree with him.
Almost no snow in the UK, see picture below.
Question :
:( The matter of snow or no snow is decided by the
FS2002 engine and cannot be changed by hand or temperature.
Is this true?
Question :
Would you like me to make changes in the ground textures of
FScene-Europe resulting in lots of snow in Europe, even if
there would be no snow by the FS2002 standards?
(I could make a free Patch. It would be your responsibillity to use it
or not though)
This screenshot shows the FS2002 snow line in my PC (February):

Hi Bill,
since my files are replacements of the originals, you do not need
to change anything. FS2002 decides the seasons.
If you cannot wait to see things change, you can always
change the season by hand in the top menu: World - Time&Season.
-
:lol: Bill, this is just the kind of mail I like most!
Have a lot of fun, thanks, Ruud.

Henrik,
thanks for your interes in this matter.
First a reply to:
>>Does the fact that FScene textures show up in Africa mean that it will be impossible ever to make an FScene Africa package that doesn't conflict with the Europe package?<<
It will be possible and I would love to make them.
However, without a proper batch file, which I cannot make myself,
the silly problem of the european ground textures in africa (or other places on the world) will remain.
In usa and australia I could use some of the ''european" ones
because they worked acceptable there.
However if we can place such a switching *.bat file or even better a windows .exe file for free on the internet, the sky would be the limit.
I am a -total blunt knife- in such matters and I cannot and will not use some other designer's program.
I dream of getting into contact with a programmer who can make
a good working 'switch program', preferably an .exe file.
She or he will get all my projects for free as a reward.
that's my reply, hope you can swallow it :wink:

:?: Being a designer, Rob and no technician/programmer, I wonder if FS2002 will accept a change of folder contents ( scenedb/world/texture)during flight.
:idea: anybody

One picture says more than 1000 words,
so here some pictures to show you how the flightsimulator
decides where and when snow has to appear.
:shock:
-
very good question,
it will be possible but only with the
textures I make for each coded bitmap.
once I make a certain bitmap very good looking
for europe, that same coded bitmap will always
appear with my design.
That's why the org. bitmaps are so 'flat' and can be used all over
the world, causing among others many baseball fields around schiphol for instance.
That's exactly where I started to make changes.
If somebody is clever enough to make
a small program to switch folders while
flying in fs2002 maybe once upon a time I
can make very very special textures for each part of the world.
there is nothing more to say,
so

Hi,
as a matter of fact I made textures for both normal winter,
where the ground is visible with dark colors including trees and
houses etc. - and hard winter where almost every piece of earth is
covered with snow.
If you fly over Holland you can see that in winter the country shows
normal winter textures in the western part and hard winter ones in the east.
FS2002 internally makes the instructions what texture tiles have to be used.
Now you know the answer on question 2.
thanks for your nice words,
-
:)
I would like to personally welcome all new members of the FScene Support Forum.
Thanks for using one or more of the FScene projects and I do hope
and trust these files increase your joy in being a virtual pilot.
Being a designer more than a pilot myself, I am sure I will learn quite a lot from this Forum, which I will follow on a daily base.
We all have to thank Rob de Vries "Holland_Holland" for being the
founder as well as moderator of the Forum.
:lol: Thanks Rob!

thanks a lot Francois, also for your support to FScene!
I am still a bit rusty on this Forum, but learning.
Will use the weekend to study the ins and outs.
Again thanks and bye,

Hi Shaun,
i tried to react this morning already, but it seems i was not logged in Rob told me.
It's all new to me and I have to thank rob for all the work he did to start this forum.
The picture shows the FScene2002 factory building, for almost 2 years.
You are the first to react on it.
I did it just for the fun of it.
