Our biggest challenge, I think, would be finding one that supported atmospheric rendering (weather, etc.) as well as terrain. I see, but I'm a uncertain if such an all-embracing package really exists - especially one which is capable of fulfilling all of FlightGear's assorted corner-case requirements. Those packages _I_ am aware of are employing different ways of aggregating various tasks - tasks which are in some way currently handled separately in FlightGear - around an OpenSceneGraph core or -derivative (Delta3D, OpenEaagles, ossimPlanet or the like). But they still expect you to prepare and fill the respective 'ingredients' yourself. Are you having some specific package in mind ? Therefore our plan on the Sceney _generation_ end has been to disassemble the various steps, which are currently accumulated in the 'fgfs-construct' binary, into individual pieces, thus allowing us to be prepared for feeding whichever file format and rendering pipeline FlightGear might use in the future ;-) Best regards, Martin. P.S.: BTW, FlightGear's development history has shown that you're likely going to be considered as being an ignorant bastard if you're not taking care of even the smallest niche feature - even during a transition period Therefore I think that a pretty clever strategy should be developed prior to touching any of FlightGear's core features ;-) -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -- -- ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.

Maybe we should consider moving to a different OpenSource scenery package. Nothing met our needs in the late 1990s, but I'm sure they've progressed since then.
