Terra Brasilis! Brazilian flight simulation site - Cape Verde & Madagascar Meshes for FSX SP1. By Magrão e José Lôbo

Magrao & Jose Lobo avisam que disponibilizaram na avsim os relevos, para FSX SP1, do arquipélago de Cabo Verde e para a ilha de Madagascar. Estes meshes cobrem Madagáscar (4ª maior maior ilha do mundo), sudeste da costa da África e 6 ilhas menores próximas: Comores - quatro ilhas (Grande Comore, Anjouan, Mohéli e Mayotte) situadas na entrada do norte do Canal de Moçambique, entre Madagáscar e o continente africano. Maurício - aproximadamente, 900 km à leste de Madagáscar. Réunion - aproximadamente, 200 km à sudoeste de Maurício. Parabéns aos autores por mais este fantástico trabalho cooperativo através do Terrabrasilis!!! Clique nas imagens para downloading na AVSIM

Magrao & Jose Lobo annouce Cape Verde & Madagascar Meshes for FSX SP1 avaliable for downloading at AVSIM (requires registration to download).

To improve performance, FSX updated with SP1 loads DEM files in threads and only the closer terrain (about 10 NM from the point of view) is rendered in high detail, while at far distances FSX shows up its default low resolution mesh, if it is not available a multi-resolution one. This terrain mesh file was multilod compiled from 90m SRTM2 source data, reprocessed with 3DEM to remove voids and spikes, providing a 76.4m (LOD9) horizontal resolution topography intended for use only in FSX updated with SP1.

It covers the Cape Verde, a group of islands in the North Atlantic Ocean, that consist of two small archipelagos, about 400 miles off the western coast of Senegal (Africa), including: Boa Vista, Brava, Maio, Mosteiros, Paul, Praia, Porto Novo, Ribeira Grande, Sal, Santa Catarina, Santa Cruz, Sao Domingos, Sao Filipe, Sao Miguel, Sao Nicolau, Sao Vicente and Tarrafal (Geographic coordinates: 16ºN/24ºW).

It covers Madagascar, the fourth largest island in the world, off the southeastern coast of Africa, and six more small islands nearby: 1. Comoros - composed of 4 islands situated in the northern entry of the channel of Mozambique, between Madagascar and the African continent. The main islands are Grande Comore, Anjouan, Mohéli and Mayotte. 2. Mauritius - about 900 km east of Madagascar. 3. Réunion - about 200 km southwest of Mauritius.
