SceneryDesign.org As I already mentioned in my previous post I have been working hard on a scenery of Schiphol airport recently.

I can’t see more gates anymore
Finally I have the time again to make a more serious blog post here. You might be wondering what I have been up to lately? It has been mainly the [NL2000] scenery project that kept me busy. We are currently finishing the beta version of our next release and for the scenery of Schiphol airport […]
My tools in FsX
With the release of FsX coming closer now, I think it is time to give a little bit of information about how my tools will (or will not) work together with this new version.

For those not familair with this system, it contains of two unit. One is the azimuth display that shows if the pilot is lined up with the leadin line correctly. […]
LiveMeeting – part 2

So tonight we did another test and this time Thorsten joined in as well to see how well everything worked from […]
Log it!
There is a new feature in the latest MDL Tweaker II release that I did not yet point out. This new feature is the event log screen. When there is a warning or an error this will be the place to look for the message. The image above shows three warnings for missing textures. So […]
