Bodo (Norway) scenery from aWac9 now available for download !
of beautiful fyords and icy mountains and islands, not far from some reknown locations such as the lofoten islands 93km 315º (NW) from Bodo.
It is an honour that I could recieve this scenery from aWac9 and we agreed that it should be a great contribution to share with the comunity.
Another limitation could be that you might notice a drop in framerates because of the sheer amount of buildings and some very detailed models placed in the scenery.
The scenery has been created by aWac9 by using lots of great outerra models created by numerous users. They include lots of great models of buildings, urban furniture, vehicles, trains, some boats and plane models, lights, etc.. collected over the years downloaded from the forum. Note that by installing the scenery only a small area of few tens of km around Bodo will be affected leaving the rest of your earth2 data untouched. Earth7 is not touched at all.
Installing the scenery requires that you have all the models (packages) used in the scenery installed.
Since many of them are quite old and are now difficult to find this is highly unlikely.
So you need to download and install some or all of the models used in the scenery from the archive below.
a number of error messages indicating that some models could not be found.
This will not affect the functionality of the scenery, but just means that these models will not be in the scenery.
By the way as the scenery was still in development some areas only show building footprints.
The list of models and their creators is given in the readme file in the download - as it is too long to be posted here - and all the credit goes to them.
Have a look at the list to verify which models you already have installed.
Note that for each package in the list not all models in the tree are in use in the Bodo scenery.
Which ones are in use is actually hard to say now. This is why the whole package is given.
This also means there is probably much more in the archive than is actually seen in the Bodo scenery.
even though some vehicles are still driveable and planes flyable. In any case they are great "decorations" for the Bodo scenery and for that matter for any scenery.
"historic archive" (sort of museum) of outerra models, very valuable for present and future scenery builders.
If you have any of the below listed models already installed probably you don't need to install them once more.
So backup the following folders (which contain respectively user models and default outerra models) before copying any of the models provided below !
which is the folder that contains information on object and road placement of outerra.
Make a backup of the folder C:\Users\...username...\Outerra\packages !!!!!
The list of user models, grouped by outerra user name, needed for the scenery and available for download in the folder "user-packages" is given in the readme file in the download. Have a look at it !
For installation copy all or part of the contents of "user-packages" into the folder C:\Users\...username...\Outerra\packages. No need to copy models (packages) that you already have.
Make a backup of the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Outerra\Anteworld\packages\outerra !!!!
The list of models who's creators are unknown to us, needed for the Bodo scenery is again given in the readme file in the download. Have a look at it !
For installation copy all or part of the content of "root-packages" into the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Outerra\Anteworld\packages\outerra. No need to copy models (packages) that you already have.
make a backup of the folder "C:\Users\...username...\Outerra\cache" !!!
leaving the rest of your earth2 data unaffected. It will not affect at all earth7.

A huge and incredibly wonderful job.
For a long time the films of aWac9 had made appreciate the care and the meticulousness of his way of building landscapes but now, having the possibility of direct exploration, it will be possible to experience it in "first person"!
Thanks to fly77 for the great job of optimizing packages to install and detailed explanations!
