FE9G v1.3.0 Released

[mkonareff]

Hi guys,

As I know a lot of simmers here are still flying FS2004, I would like to share with you a freeware texture package I released recently : FE9G for "Full Environment Global", yes we can say that the name is based on the famous FTXG from ORBX but unfortunately only for FSX.
At first I was working on a FTXG conversion to work on my FS9 and just completed it last week, but I can't share it due to the payware files included, what a pity ! ...
But I had the idea to release as a freeware package some textures I created by myself for several environment textures and some textures from Gabriel Rodrigues who gave me the authorization to use his files.

Here is the list :

- Sky textures optimized for a smooth horizon
- Environment Reflection
- Water Texture
- Water Reflection
- Waves effect
- Sun textures
- Lens Flare effect
- A few ENBseries + SweetFX
mods
- Some tips on FS9 & FSUIPC settings

At first I planned to upload it on Flightsim.com and Avsim libraries but Mega is more convinient for me to provide updates, the next version should contain the method I have used to convert my FTXG textures to get them work on FS9, so if you are also a FTXG user, you will be able to create your own "FT9G", it is a hard and long work but I am sure that most of you are totally able to do it, it is a really small thing compared to all the great scenery creations I see here !

Waiting these explanations, or if you don't want to create your own FT9G, I can recommend you the use of "FS9 EVOLUTION" which is a great Donationware : forum.avsim.net/forum/720-the-fs9-evolution-forum/

Hope you will like FE9G ! =)

This looks amazing! I would love to try, but have a question first. How easy is it to uninstall after installing, should I decided not to use it?

[mkonareff]

Hi Chris,

If you create a backup of the folders indicated in the manual it should be quite easy to uninstall, you would just need to paste your backup over the modified folders.
Hope you will like if you decide to try.

Could you please post the download somewhere else? Mega seems to be having trouble

[mkonareff]

Hi Chris,

Sure, here is a link from mediafire : www.mediafire.com/download/o9b89pvex4zepmk/FEG9v1.1.zip

Enjoy,

Thanks Maxime!

I have been unable to get the Global Post Processing to work because after putting it in the FS9 folder the sim will not run and I am told I need to install Direct X 9.0C. I am running Windows 7 64 bit which has Direct X 11.0. Am I right in assuming that nothing can be done about this? Many thanks,

Ken

Hi,

Chris, glad you like it =)

Kenlawson, this is normal as sweetfx needs DX9.0C. You can download this DX9 update from the microsoft link attached in the manual.
This is totally safe and of course this will not erase DX11.

Once installed everything should work correctly.

Best,
Maxime.

Maxime,

FS9 is on my G drive and I have replaced the C drive which once had Windows XP on it with a C drive which now has Windows 7. I installed the update from the link in your manual but FS9 will still not open and I am being told I need to reinstall it. I shall not be doing that. Never mind. I very much like your horizon textures and have followed your recommendations for the configuration of the FS9.cfg file. I think this has made some difference, but will have a better idea when I have done a few more flights. Many thanks,

Ken

Maxime,


Still unsure as to where to put the GPP files. Right to the main FS9 folder? Does Sweet FX get placed directly there also> Sould it be placed as is or opened first ? Am downloading DirectX 9 now. Where does it get installed ?

Please help.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

This release should really get more exposure, it really refreshes FS2004 and gives it a new look. I have only seen it mentioned here and of course on your link, but many people (me included) do not go to Avsim forums as they are so slooooooooow. Can I suggest you spread the news of this at FlightSim.com forums and SOH where there is still a healthy FS2004 following.

Let me say thanks for this excellent work. It brings the old fs2004 to a new level. I have the enb series for a long time now, but in conjuntion with sweet fx and your textures it blow my mind. Thank you very much.

As your post seems still not been treated, I will try to give you an answer.

First choose one of the folders included in the folder "Global post processing". I would suggest to install either

- ENBSeries + SweetFX Ice Blue - Favorite or
- ENBSeries + SweetFX Natural

Open one of these folders and paste the SweetFX folder and all files to your main FS9 folder. That's it.

DirectX 9 will be installed in your Windows system folder. While installing your basic FS9 this has been installed too. Without FS9 wouldn't run.

Hope it helps,
