Hmm, not really. Actually the city textures, like builtup.rgb and
resgrid.rgb, are probably taken from satellite images of some US
resident area. At least it looks like this :-)

kept as an option.
By default the use of the regional textures makes more sence, since
modifying every town would be just too time consuming.
Using the poligons as a virtual marker for the regions sounds
Since there is already a PostGIS database for custom scenery
contribution in work, I assume this maybe could be added to that database?
I agree that localized textures would be a big improvement. The city
textures look good for locations in the states, but not realistic for
Europe.
But I can't

Do you really expect the PLIB project to issue major

I noticed this, too , since the landcover data actually has a large
amount of landcovertypes that are currently ignored.
So my question is: If somebody would brew up some new textures for these
types, is there any reason for not using them?
For example, if you have many textures in a scenery part,

I. Currently the terrain textures are UV mapped onto the terrain from
directly above. This creates all sorts of problems in steep terrain. One
of those problems is that cliffs and near cliffs look really bad.
Perhaps if terrain with a slope greater than a certain threshold

This sounds like a good solution

Hi Josh
I posted on this subject a couple of weeks ago there was some discussion
as to where the scaling of the texture was done Terragear/FlightGear.
There were two points;
1) ... when viewed from above a 45deg slope will only seem 0.7071 of its
true length. Hence a stretching issue
