Hi All,

OpenSceneryX v1.8.0

OpenSceneryX is a library of X-Plane objects, forests and facades that scenery authors can use to make their sceneries richer. If you have been following the progress of the library in this thread then you’ll know what it’s all about, otherwise, heres a quick summary:

OpenSceneryX is a collection of x-plane scenery objects, contributed by various members of the community free-of-charge. The idea is that the library will grow to become a comprehensive set of high-quality scenery elements for use by any scenery author, reducing the time taken for them to build a custom scenery package and reducing the load on X-Plane. OpenSceneryX is built as a proper x-plane library, which means that authors don’t copy objects out of the package into their sceneries, instead they reference the objects directly from the library. So, if several authors have used the same church from the library, that object only needs to be loaded once by x-plane. Every scenery author, whether freeware, shareware or commerical can use the library free of charge.

As an added bonus, tutorials will be available as part of the library (psiteo’s excellent animated windsock tutorial is included in this version).

9th May 2008: NEW! Version 1.8.0 Released.

Release notes for the current version are always found here

This version uses an installer. Instead of downloading a huge zip file containing the whole library each time, the installer only downloads files that have changed from one version to the next. Grab it here: www.opensceneryx.com. Installers are provided for Mac, PC and Linux. Just download the appropriate version and run it. It asks you where your X-Plane folder is and then it does the rest.

If anyone would like to contribute objects, please contact me here at the org.

Austin G.
