Ula Jolly: From which game are those screenshots in your sig from? I don't think DW looks like that.....

Looks like Silent Hunter III. If DW had the graphics of SHIII, then I'd be in heaven! :sunny:

How about instead of Bremerton, WA...doing our angles and dangles in Dabob Bay outside of Bangor off Hood Canal and then transit thru the Hood Canal Bridge to the straits? I loved the scenery to the west of the Olympic Mountains!

You know what I dream about ?
I dream about something already existing.
and used in google earth :
downloading the map where you are playing when choosing the map, on solo and MP.

A switch to select the DTED level, 0 the stock version (for low connection) or 1, and why not 2 with braodband connections.
As soon as the scenario is selected, the part of the map you play with is downloaded in background, and cached once downloaded for next use of this scenario.

Of course, this need strong connections, but I can see that very fast connection explode in numbers: here I have 11.5 Mbps / 1 Mbps + 100TV + phone for €30.

I think SCS could think about something like this in next versions of their simulators.

If the data is in fact free why can't SCS sanction a 3rd party addon which would come on 3 DVDs? Much like the upgraded terrain meshes that are available to MSFS 2004 right now....

Space/price is certainly not an issue here, you can purchase a 250 gb harddrives here in canada for $140. (Western Digital)
