Also is anyone already working on Euro scenery ???

Greetings MIL

Hi again

Just got a reply from the author that i can NOT use the tiles since they are included in a shareware program...

WOW, those tiles look really GREAT!! Eurepean style!!

Too bad the author wont help us, say, is that author's intention to keep tiles within MSFS world? or we got to pay for SHAREware?

I'd like to learn more, about the author and his tile mod..maybe a petition? how to contact him?

btw, EAW european tiles looks great too, dunno if EAW mod makers use MSFS resources?

and, whats your European theater? I've never heard that.

Hi CCC,

the European theater i'm referring to is really not much, just some terrain and features i've downloaded... though i already managed to make the dutch underwater area land ! plus already inserted some bases in a .tac file.

You can contact the author of those superb tiles on ruud.faber@hetnet.nl
only explanation he gives is that the tiles are incorporated in FScene2002 and that that is shareware...
