IMPORTANT NOTES

  • This mesh will work best with the latest release of Aeroworx detailed Terrain Features for Southern Africa. The level of the many dams and other vector data have been fine-tuned to the elevations to work within the Aeroworx FSX Mesh. 
  • You will still find some default dams and airfields to be sunken into the ground or sitting on elevated surfaces.
  • DO NOT DISABLE THE DEFAULT DEM FILE

LIMITATIONS

  • Please run your scenery at a 1m resolution, Mesh Complexity at 100 to enjoy the full benefits of the Mesh.
  • DO NOT use any other add-on meshes with this scenery.
  • Sunken or raised lakes and airfields:  Any high-res terrain mesh tends to reveal the often-inaccurate default lake and airport elevations.
  • Incompatibility with 3rd-party scenery add-ons:  Any add-on terrain mesh can negatively impact scenery add-ons outside of default airports.
  • Due to the limitations in the 76m mesh, water in dams will not always level up to the dam wall (Please run your scenery at a 1m resolution).

Developer: Hannes Steyn, Johan van Wyk, Aeroworx.
