Stunningly awesome. What else can I say? I am looking forward to the release of NZ south and north so very much.
If you can say you can make it better than this, what word will surpass "stunningly awesome"? I'm sure ORBX staff will know.

You are the best in FSX scenery, no question about that. My congratulations!

Happy flying!

Andrew

Been looking forward to this and it is looking amazing already. Its definitely on my must buy list. Mitre Peak is very recognizable in 2 of those pictures.

John you could sell that to the New Zealand Tourist Board for their next series of advertisments Looking VERY good, I take it by the time it is nearly ready for release you will have started NOrth Island?

Yes of course. We run a lot of projects in parallel these days, so NZNI will be well underway by the time NZSI is released.

Great, I can look forward to a flight from Bluff to Te Reinga (Don't forget the Lone Pohutakawa tree at the very tip of Cape Reinga, It is VERY important to the Maori. It is where the souls of the departed make their leap into the next life)

I've been absolutely *itching* for a NZ rendition like this in FS, ever since I spent two months backpacking (sorry... tramping) around the country 6 years ago.

Don't care if it takes another two years to finish if it's going to look like that! Absolutely fantastic work on Milford.

Sold!

Just need to add "PURE" to the screenies and Crowded House tune playing over the top and they could be used by Tourism NZ.

Crowded House might be too "Australian"

CathyH · « **Reply #40 on:** July 06, 2010, 02:12:49 PM »

We need Gandalf and a few Hobbits--oh, silly me, they're developing the scenery

Beautiful shots!

And poor Neil! 1135 airstrips!!

Yes indeed, I thought at first that 1135 must be a typo. All but about sixty are just paddocks I suppose, but the coolest-looking ones visible in GE are spectacular- quintin lodge airstrip next to the sutherland falls, also the strips by fox and franz josef glaciers - If Neil could get to those it would be wonderful to see them in the sim.
The mesh and topo looks superb in those shots, can’t wait to see shots with the new textures!

I saw the banner at the bottom of a reply I was doing for Jay Kae and had a chuckle to myself as I'm always amazed at your ability to hand out candy so freely. To visit the FTX forum is like being the preverbial kid in a candy store.

This is absolutely stunning gentlemen. Look forward to following it's progress.

I am so there when this is released....it's looking fantastic, and thanks for taking it on.

Stunning I've been waiting for this since spending 3 month tramping round both South and North Island. Looking forward to airports with Tui whistling in the background.
keep up the good work

Just wondering is the next PNW scenery planned to be released before the first NZ?

Thanks,

Crowded House might be too "Australian"

ARIA (Australian Recording Industry busybodies) have said that Crowded House are not Australian enough to be eligible for their awards. So if the industry don't recognise them as Aussie, then that must make them NZer's

Paul_Smith · « **Reply #58 on:** July 08, 2010, 12:21:15 AM »

Do you want my first born now, or would you prefer to wait until the release date?
