FS9 and FSX. This is a short test about Tropical Sim Azores pack one. As a matter of fact, this pack is incomplete and Corvo will be added in a few weeks for free. What to say ? The designer has done a real good job with the airports. Pico and Santa Maria terminals are magnificent of details and precision. With this, i definitely forget the TAPA scenery.
So Pico and Santa Maria airports are nice but i will not say so much about the islands. Despite some beautiful landscapes (especially on some coasts), the islands are just not depicted at all. I was expecting some custom autogen in villages, a true representation of the mount Pico with the crater and photoreal or specific ground textures. It is not the case and we find almost everywhere the same vegetation. Maybe it's my fault. I have been accustomed to some good projects like Iceland X (Aerosoft).
Another curious thing is the choice of these islands. I know that Tropical Sim encountered problems with photoreal imagery. But i would have like a first pack with Flores-Pico at a cheap price, then maybe Santa Maria and Sao Miguel and finally the largest islands in the center. I mean, now i have Pico airport but i can barely fly anywhere or just on the San Jorge FS defaut airport.
Anyway, Tropical Sim is willing to update the work. So let's wait. Don't forget that, like Marshall Islands, nobody else than T.S. would have ever made Azores. Its difficult and the marker isn't very large. I thank them very much for that.
