Would like to hear opinions on Samoshin Natural World Trees for FSX. How are they on performance and opinions and suggestions for other similar products out there either payware or freeware. Trying to put a little lipstick on the FSX Pig....LOL

Thanks

Sam

I'd also like to know how these trees impact the performance. Large areas of trees are the major performance killer for me.. I usualy have 30 FSP (locked at 30) but in these areas they can drop to 20 instantly. How much of an improvement are those trees?

None, regarding the payware. They just look better, but are they worth thr price? I wouldn't say so, even though I bought (and use) them.

So I understand the tree density is the same as FSX but the tree textures are replaced? Why don't you think it's worth the price?

I just don't feel it's worth the price. It looks nice on the ground, but the difference is barely visible from above.

IMHO there are plenty of freeware trees that look just as good as the Samoshin trees at a much lower price (FREE!)

Just do a search for 'tree' or 'trees' at the Flightsim.com file library, there are plenty of options.
