At LAGO of course. Friday June 14th 13:00 GMT LAGO will release the first section of TerraMesh scenery, this section covers the whole of Switzerland and it only costs ˆ5. Yes, 70 Mb of data for just ˆ5. And you know, for mesh things are simple, the larger the files the denser the mesh and the better the terrain looks. TerraMesh is a revolution to any pilot who does like to see more then the timid mountains of FS2002 default or is reluctant to try the buggy and expensive other mesh add-ons (commercial or freeware). TerraMesh is high end software, with installer. And unlike some, it can be switched off from within FS2002. But you never want to. Believe me. Next week Northern Italy!Please note that this is NOT a ‘try before you buy’ software and that you should only download the rather large file if you already have a code or are going to buy one. There is a demo version that covers the Mont Blanc and Geneva which is only 5 Mb. But if you are downloading the big stuff you will better use a download manager that can resume your downloads.

LAGO announces FSLog
After some rumors last week we can now tell you that we ARE indeed working on a replacement for the crummy logbook in Fs2002. This new version will be very close to the highly expensive tools used by flying clubs and private pilots. It is started from within FS2002 and will use many of the databases of Fs2002 (like the aircrafts, airports etc) to save you entering a lot of data. There will be many graphical outputs but the most exiting by far is a map of the world where all your flights are shown. So if you like to roam the world in FS2002 you can see your flights. Of course the map can be zoomed in and out; nice detail is that your last 5 flights will be colored differently to show you were you have recently been.

LAGO announces Honolulu Scenery
Although we don’t know yet when it will ship, LAGO is working on a scenery of Honolulu. This scenery will be 100% done in Gmax with the result that it is incredibly fast. Even with high dense scenery (how about 600+ taxi signs) we still get framerates in the high 60’s on a 1.2 Gh machine. Of course we are eating some of that framerate to add more stuff but it will be a scenery that is special in many ways. FSMaintenance CD version soon to be available We just finished the master for the CD version of FSMaintenance. The version that will be shipping is 100% identical to latest version on our website. This latest version is 1.10 btw and a new complete version and an upgrade (all previous versions to 1.10) are available.
