Calgary Downtown Area V2
Created by Sidney Schwartz using EZ-Scenry by Abacus

The downtown Calgary area is largely missing in the default FS9 scenery. This is not an attempt to accurately recreate it, but to provide something that looks reasonably like the real thing from the air.
V2 includes seperate versions for those with and without Ultimate Terrain. The installation instructions for V1 neglected to mention that object library fs9_custom_buildings_ss_2.zip is also required.

INSTALLATION
This scenery is not self-installing because I have no idea how to do that. You will need to have some knowledge of FS9 scenery libraries in order to install it.
INSTALLING THE SCENERY FILES
The scenery consists of these files:
CYYC_City_SS_DF_V2.bgl -- version for the default scenery
CYYC_City_SS_UT_V2.bgl -- version for users of Ultimate Terrain
If you have Ultimate Terrain installed on your system, use CYYC_City_SS_UT_V2.bgl. If you do not, use CYYC_City_SS_DF_V2.bgl.
NOTE: If you installed V1 of this scenery and have Ultimate Terrain installed on your system, you do not need to install either of these scenery files. However, you do need to download from Avsim and install fs9_custom_buildings_ss_2.zip.
The easiest way to install the scenery is to put the file in your FS9/Addon Scenery/Scenery folder. Or, if you know how to create and use FS scenery folders, you can put it in any active scenery folder of your choosing.
INSTALLING THE OBJECT LIBRARIES
Object libraries provide the buildings, vehicles, fences, etc. that you see in this scenery. The scenery will not display unless you have these object libraries installed on your system. These objects were created by clever and talented people for the rest of us to share and use. We love them. Object libraries are "shared" by scenery files...YOU SHOULD NOT NEED TO REINSTALL AN OBJECT LIBRARY THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE ON YOUR SYSTEM, AND DOING SO MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS.
1. The first library you should download and install is provided by Abacus, the makers of EZ-Scenery. This libary is self-installing. Download it here: http://www.abacuspub.com/pub/AbacusEZLibraries.exe
2. Now download from Avsim and install the following object libraries IF YOU DO NOT ALREADY HAVE IT INSTALLED ON YOUR SYSTEM. Follow the installation instructions that come with the library.
TERMS OF USE
This scenery and the objects used to create it are FREEWARE and you may not charge anything for their use.
MANY THANKS......
To Microsoft for making the most fun computer program ever. To Abacus for EZ-Scenery which was used to create this scenery. To Lee Swordy for AFCAD. To the many kind and talented people who have provided us with scenery objects and the tools to use them.
