| EUROPEAN SUMMER |
-----------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION:
===========

A modified texture set for the default FS2002 summer textures. It will give the grass and
meadows during the summer months a fresher and greener look. Designed for the European
continent.



INSTALLATION:
=============

Unzip the contents of this file to a temporary directory of your choice.

!!! IMPORTANT !!! Please backup the BMPs located in your "scenedb\world\texture" folder
which have the same names like the BMPs in this ZIP file before you install anything.

Copy all BMPs from this file to your "scenedb\world\texture" folder which is located in your
FS2002 root directory.



QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
======================

Q: Do I have to backup anything before installing the new textures ?

A: Yes, please backup the BMPs located in your "FS2002\scenedb\world\texture" folder which
have the same names like the BMPs in this ZIP file. Store the backup textures in a safe
place on your harddrive. You will need them in case you will go back to the default
textures.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Will the new textures cause any drop in frame rates ?

A: No.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Will they overwrite any of the river, water, night or other textures ?

A: No. The new textures will only give the grass and meadows during the summer months a
fresher and greener look, nothing more and nothing less.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Will the autogen objects look the same like before and will they be placed correctly ?

A: Yes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Are they compatible with other 3rd party summer textures ?

A: I doubt it because I made them with the default European FS2002 landscape textures in
mind.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Will the textures look good in any part of the Flightsimulator world ?

A: Maybe, maybe not, it depends on your taste. I have modified them specially for Europe.
They may not look very realistic in other regions of the world but as I said before it
depends on your taste. In case you don't like the new look or you are flying mostly in
an area of the FS world where the new textures doesn't look realistic to you please
restore the default textures which you hopefully (!!!) have backed up in a safe place.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What to do with the compare.jpg which I found in this ZIP ?

A: It's simply a picture that shows the difference between the default and the new textures.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Do you plan to enhance the other seasons too ?

A: I'm not sure yet. I have tried to modify the spring and autumn textures with the same
technique I used on the summer textures but the result was not very realistic.

DISCLAIMER:
===========

You are only allowed to use the new textures in combination with a legal copy of MS
Flightsimulator 2002 Pro or Standard. (Needless to say they won't work without it anyway)

You can upload this ZIP file to any website you like but please don't charge money for it.
