These scenery files add a very detailed terrain structure to the Flight
Simulator world for the area of Land of Fire Extreme South of South America.
They do not contain any land cover data,coastline definitions or airports.
This update corrects the "texture tearing" (blue slivers) some polygons and lines
apears in the mid- to far distance when high-res mesh is used, getting "as real
as get" improve.

INSTALLATION
This scenery is composed of 1 file, which cover:
-76º
-47º +---+
| |
+---+ -56º
-64º
File name: LandofFire.bgl
Same as with any other add-on scenery. After unzipping all files you should
put the file in a folder named "scenery". Copy this file to your
"..\FS9\ADDON SCENERY\scenery\" folder, and that's it. Check that the
ADDON SCENERY area is active in flight simulator's scenery library. You may
use any other scenery folder as well. Refer to other documentation for more
details.
Waterbodies and coastline - this is pretty much apparent: the SRTM scenery
combines with Microsoft's less precise default coastlines and waterbodies.
They are defined by "LWM-Polygons" which force the terrain to a certain
elevation. Especially lakes are often set to a false elevation, and combined
with a false coastline this can create strange views.
SRTM data are available for free via ftp://edcsgs9.cr.usgs.gov/. However,
creating these scenery files required some work and knowledge, and aditional
DEM data. So don't include this scenery into any kind of product you charge
money for without my written permission. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
These files really should not harm your computer. However, you are using them
on your own risk, I don't accept any liability for any possible damage or data
loss you might experience while using them.
