Sorry, but being also a user I can tell you that it doesn't matter to me. And I'm pretty sure, a lot of others users as well! I fact, I have to say many thousand big Thanks to all developers who not only contribute their shapefiles to Martin's database, but also generate their sceneries and provide their work to all other users to test and use! Of course, it would be better to have them into one database aka TerraSync! TerraSync is a great feature, even outstanding compared to other Sims. But currently it only updates objects- no landclasses and other things. And that's the major problem all behind, as already said. If this would be solved, I'm sure more people would feel proud to add their work to TerrySync. Btw. my scenery settings looks like that: --fg-scenery=C:/Programme/FlightGear/LOWI_v850-v2_Scenery/LOWI_v850-v2_Scenery/Scenery;C:/Programme/FlightGear/EDDF-ELLX-ETAR;C:/Programme/FlightGear/flightgear-terrain;C:/Programme/FlightGear/Alaska;C:/Programme/FlightGear/terrasync Downloaded TerrySync files are still there, but only there where such detailed sceneries like Netherlands, Belgium and Statto's sceneries aren't available. > The latter one, the MSFS way of doing thing, is a horrible mess for the > user. > That's why i suggest do promote the "one scenery fits all" way. It is a not a mess. To my knowledge we are still a FREE and OPEN source project. And so the user should be FREE and OPEN to decide which Scenery, aircraft etc. he wants to use. And I think that GNU GPL is already very powerful, and with that attracting. No need to force users to do anything- that is a bit against the OpenSource spirit of FGFS.
