Top_Gun Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Took off from Spokane and headed East for a short time before heading back to Fairchild AFB. I opened up MS Streets which is like Map Quest and I was pretty impressed. The night liting was really cool Dawn departure Felts Field over Spokane I90 heading to Fairchild South of Spokane I-195 Spokane Airport from FL100 Fairchild AFB with AI taking active I didn't take any stock pics so I would be curious if someone could post theirs with out the roads addon. I noticed when I was flying out of Pease where I'm from the new roads don't use the bridges that MS put in, but in the wrong places Quote
PG_Raptor Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 hey TopGun, I saw somewhere that there is an update for that addon, USRoads. I guess is makes the roads look more realistic, instead of standing out so much like they do now. I think it looks a lot better, at least in the screenshots I've seen. check avsim.com or flightsim.com for it. Quote
Top_Gun Posted July 28, 2004 Author Posted July 28, 2004 The update is on the the Flight1.com's website. It's installed when taking the shots above. I still might need to tweek it, I believe I can tone it down a bit. I'll double check, I was in a rush as it was around 1am Quote
+MadJeff Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Wow, that looks much better. I can actually pick out all the real roads! I live about 2 miles south of Felts, and the area looks very realistic. Quote
firehawkordy Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 Hmmm... Now I guess I'll have to get this. Can you get it on disc or is it just a down load? Now to find Sprague Ave. ;) Quote
+MadJeff Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 That's easy, 2 block south of my house. ;) You familiar with the area? Quote
Top_Gun Posted July 29, 2004 Author Posted July 29, 2004 http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=roads001 Okay, I could be blind but I don't see a Disk option which is weird. Quote
firehawkordy Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 That's easy, 2 block south of my house. You familiar with the area? MJ, used to deploy to Fairchild for Woodland Cougar Exercises. My crew and I used to go to town on liberty. Sprague was a street that we used as a landmark. One day I'm going to go back with my wife and really enjoy Spokane. Quote
firehawkordy Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 Top Gun, I just saw the Roads package is being released on disc, sometime this month it appears. I'll have to find the link again, it was one of flightsims sponsers. Get back with it soon. Quote
