FSX Sassolungo Group Scenery

Sassolungo Group, Dolomites 'Trentino' scenery. Add-on scenery for the freeware ItalVFR coverage region of Trentino (TRENT1.ZIP, etc.). It use real images taken by a local pilot to reproduce the Sassolungo mountains group to stunning realistic details. This add-on uses an elaborated graphic production process to mostly eliminate vertical distortions of photorealistic scenery when used on vertical surfaces.

Installation :

First a word of presentation :

Frank has produced some photorealistics addons which can be added to the base 2 m photorealistic Italian project called ItalVFR. Italvfr has the target to produce each of the italians regions in photorealistic scenery on a 2 m resolution - base packages are divided region by region up to today - trentino - freeware - is one of the italian region part of the project italvfr.

Frank has produced addons to improve the graphics up to today mostly for Italians Alps mountains peaks - - Sassolungo it is just one of his addons available - which we are gradually improving and uploading into flightsim and fsfile !

The first thing to do - is to download the base packages - trentino is freeware but fsfile offers other region at a very low prices - for those interested ! Even said so - if you like to use frank addons' just on their own - they will work ! but your coverage will just limited to the addons itself !

- create a new folder in the main fsx folder called: frank_addons or whatever you like :

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons inside frank_addons folder create a new folder called: scenery

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons\scenery extract the Sassolungo_estive.bgl file into the :

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons\scenery folder

Start your FSX - and add the : C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons into your scenery library - VERY IMPORTANT - FRANKS ADDONS FOLDER MUST BE ALWAYS HIGHER LAYER IN SCENERY LIBRARY THAN ANY OF THE ITALVFR REGIONS BASE PACKAGES.

For example : if you installed the trentino region italvfr base package on layer 2 - - frank_addons must be on layer 1 - that is all you need to do.

Frank Italian alpine peaks use real images taken around the mountains.
