This Landclass File replaces the Landclass for a large part of Southern England. It covers the whole of Hampshire, goes west as far as Poole and Bournemouth in Dorset and over to Salisbury in Wiltshire. North to Andover in Hampshire, Newbury, Wallingford and Reading in Berkshire. North east to Henley on Thames, Marlow, Slough, Windsor and around Heathrow. South down the M25 to Egham and Addlestone. East of Guildford and down to Bognor Regis on the south coast and all along the south coast back to Poole and every where in between!
Install Instructions:
1. Place the folder entitled UK Landclass Hampshire & Neighbouring Counties into the file where you keep your FS2004 Add On Scenery Files.
2. Start FS2004.
3. Select Settings.
4. Select Scenery Library.
5. Select Add Area.
6. Browse to the folder in which you placed my Landclass folder.
7. Open the folder called UK Landclass Hampshire & Neighbouring Counties.
8. Click on the folder called UK Landclass Hampshire, Neighbouring Counties and Isle of Wight Northern Peninsular.
9. Press OK.
10. (You have now installed the main part of this Landclass file. The southern peninsular of the Isle of Wight comes on a different LOD5 cell and required a new EZ-Landclass Spreadsheet to complete. There is therefore a second folder to install).
11. Again, select Add Area.
12. Browse to the folder in which you placed my Landclass folder.
13. Open the folder called UK Landclass - Isle of Wight - Southern Peninsular.
14. Press OK.
15. Press OK to exit the Scenery Library.
16. Exit completely out of FS2004.
17. Restart FS2004 and go to anywhere in and around the Hampshire area.
NB. Landclass folders require only a Scenery Folder. They do not require Texture Folders as well. A texture folder can have a detrimental effect. It has been known to drain RAM from the flight sim programme.
This Landclass was created for FS2004. It does not work well in FS2002.
Whilst creating this Landclass file, I made a utility which I have called FS2004 Landclass Paintbox. This will very shortly be uploaded to SurClaro. This utility is intended to make it even easier to replace and enhance the Landclass in FS2004 in all regions of the world. When completed, it will be a set of screenshots of forward facing views of every Landclass tile available to you. It will show the different cities, towns and villages that can be used, the different fields and farmland scenery available, along with moorland, heath, grassland and scrub and too a wide range of forest of all kinds and density. Each picture will demonstrate the density of autogen and distinguish between those Landclass tiles better suited to the greener and wetter regions of say Northern Europe and North America and those suited only to more arid regions such as Southern Europe, Central America and Africa.
Hopefully, by using EZ-Landclass and the FS2004 Landclass Paintbox, revised Landclass for other counties and regions will become available.
