High Detail Statue of Liberty for FS9

Dedicated to all people who have lost loved ones in wars.
Peace.

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



Hi,

this is a detailed model of the Statue of Liberty. It has custom day and night textures, as well as 3 LOD models.

The high detail model shows within about a one-mile radius around the statue, and has about 3250 polygons. The medium detail model has about 1300 polygons, while the lowest has roughly 700. The lowest detail model shows approximately at the distance between the statue and the tip of Manhattan.

Due to the different LODs, you will notice some "popping" of the scenery when nearing the statue. I tried to minimise the effect as much as possible.

Compared to the average aircraft, the polygon count should be fairly low.


I thank Tatu Kantomaa for assisting me in compiling the gmax files and for creating the exclude file for the original SOL.
If you like this, you should definitely check out his excellent NYC art-deco buildings for FS9.

I also thank all those who offered their kind support in the flight sim related forums.

The scenery has been tested with Aerosoft's Manhattan scenery.

Enjoy!
Any comments are welcome.

-Daniel
