I cranked up all the settings as high as they go. That may be part of the problem. With all settings full I couldn't have found those heads if they'd been jumping up and down and waving at me. They blend in too well with the terrain textures and especially the autogen trees. Yes, I guess I should have been more specific about this. The real "Isla de Pascua" (a quite literal translation of "Easter Island") apparently does not have many trees, as I learned here, just like you do now.. ;-) Try turning autogen off, leave other scenery settings on high, then drop terrain specs (mesh detail, texture size etc.) to minimum. Now fly SLOWLY around the coast. Once you spot a head you can crank the details back up. Alternatively, go to the coordinates in the screen shot: http://www.denali.org.uk/fs2004/easter.jpg Indeed, from the runway, you could even taxi to some statues, following the 'roads'. If you go northeast from the tower, starting a clockwise tour around the island, you'll find groups of statues every mile or so. -- Groeten, Boudewijn. |
