Last week I spent a couple of days in France,very nice it was too  
So tonight I thought  lets see if there is any scenery of the area I was in. Well
This made me smile
The author, Vauchez calls this smileware,why?because thats all it will cost you There I paid for it again
Absolutely stunning freeware scenery,but dont take my word for it 
http://mapage.noos.fr/euro_vauchez/
This really should be payware and dont worry as it comes with an installer,all you have to do is activate it in the scenery settings page of fs9,shut it down and restart and start smiling
You cannot afford to pass this by

That is stunningly beautiful, wouldn't it be fantastic if all of the sim looked like that, dream, dream dream on...
Did you find that it interfered with your "traffic add-on"?
 Etienne Vauchez thank you

 It seems to have its own traffic file,but the effect seems just to be in the local area,as I saw a yellow aircraft (unknown) take off as I approached 
The read me file  says about switching off auto gen (I have not  ) to better frame rates
But you are right,it would be fantastic if all the sim was like it,so much detail,so many trees and house's  fs2006??  Who knows 
I look forward to other projects from this man Etienne Vauchez

WOW!!! Thanks for the tip tomthetank - I had looked at this download some time ago but the 11+Mb and my dial up put me off.
Have send a barrowoad of smilies  to Entienne and suggested he offered his services to Microsoft (for a small fee - that is - about $M1).
Have included example below. Even with my limited graphics card this should convince everyone how good it is -
and this -
Well done Entienne and thanks

Wow is right!
I don't know how I missed this on its first posting.
Av8r77 is right, I think we all would agree this is what we would like to see in FS 2006 |

Superb free add-on.... looks very similar to "Brittany Islands" add-on but pleasantly £30 cheaper !
Like DaveC, I only have dial-up so my PC is whirring away as I write, downloading the scenery.... can't wait to give it a go !
PS... Great to hear from you DaveC, hope you had a good Xmas.
