NOTES:
- Megascenery claims they use 1foot/pixel resolution (for FS9) image but a) it's impossible that the entire areas they produce is made of such imagery as it's not available from no where – b) it's usless to 30cm/pixel (or even 1m/pixel) resolution imagery if then you compress or resample to 2 or 3m/pixel to stick such large area in 1.8 GB.
- Tabouret claims there is night textures but no screenshots are available – We show with full resolution screenshots every little thing we claim we do.
- Water masks – We don't know what others do but we add water mask to lakes big enough to land on. If you spot a big lake without the water mask, plesae let us know so we can add it and release as free upgrades,
