FSX 'GenReloaded' Photoreal Trees V1

All trees for all seasons edited for a more 3D effect. Texture sizes reduced and tree height adjusted to a more realistic setting as compared to actual photos of vegetation appearance from the air. Trees blend in perfectly with ground textures. Package includes all original textures as backup. Combine with my Genreloaded Buildings for best effect. By Adnan Arif.

I was involved in graphic designing for FS2004`s Birds Eye View project Volume 1 to 4. I designed new buildings, trees, eventually went on to make Photorealistic roads and railroads. (Under the title GenReloaded). FS2004 Aquarama, a new set of FS9 water textures was the last of my freeware for FS9.

After that I was lucky enough to be a beta-tester for FSX. Though it is truly an exciting version of Flight Sim, there can always be enhancements to every version of FS.

This project is the first in a number of projects to continue to enhance the world of FSX. I greatly enjoy trying to bring maximum realism as possible (within my limits) and hope other simmers will appreciate and enjoy my enhancements!

Changes for 'Generation-X Volume 1: Photoreal Trees':

• All tree textures for all regions of the world have been graphically edited and brightened slightly to better color match the ground textures and to give a more 3D look to the FSX vegetation. The effect is to present a more lush vegetation appearance. Whether flying at tree top height or higher, the vegetation now blends in better with the ground in terms of brightness and color palette.
• A lot of tree textures have also been resized to 512 X 512 size. In this way, there should be some improvement in frame rates too.
• Conifers have been lightened and their size has been adjusted.
• Poplars were too tall and have been shortened.
• All Palm trees have been re-colored and color matched.

Installation:

• Select all the files in the 'TEXTURE' Folder and copy them to FSX/Scenery/Global/Texture.
• If you wish to revert to the original FSX textures, select all files in the ORIGINALS Folder and copy to FSX/Scenery/Global/Texture.

Thats it!
