Whatever you want to do with FS9 or FSX scenery then you probably  need look no further than SBuilderX.
Now updated to handle x64 type operating systems, this is  the easiest and most powerful program in my modelling toolbox.

Tim Arnot is involved in producing some of the finest detailed freeware available today. He is also involved in producing Plan-G, probably the best VFR Flight Planner available for FSX and FS9.
Please visit his web site via the link below to find the latest versions of his software together with a host of aircraft repaints.

George Davidson has again updated his Photo Tile Identity Programme to handle the latest Volumes of Horizon/Playhorizon Scenery.
This version will correctly identify tiles in Volumes 1-3 (version2) England and Wales, Volumes 4 - 5 The Scottish Islands and Volumes 9 - 10 Ireland East and West
My thanks to George for allowing  me to host the file.

ENBseries is a modification that adds bloom and other  visual control values to FSX by replacing the d3d9.dll with a modified  version that is placed within your main FSX directory, this bypasses the d3d9.dll that resides in Windows and is part of the DirectX feature  set. This is combined with a config file that controls the settings you can alter by changing numerical values within the file.

The  default FSX bloom looks nice but has a massive impact on the frame rate, whereas ENBseries has little or no affect, unless you start using some  advanced features such as depth of field.

Below is a link to the ENBseries mod.... when Unzipped you will find three files: 'd3d9.dll', 'enbseries' configuration settings and a 'manual' that explains all the parameters found in the config file.

Place the 'd3d9.dll' and 'enbseries' files in you main FSX directory, and it  will simply work the next time you run the simulator. The values set in the config file are the ones I typically use, but you can experiment  and change things to suit your own tastes.

If you wish to stop using it simply remove the two files and your sim will be returned to its original state.

You can turn ENB on/off in-game by using SHIFT+F12

You can edit the config file while the sim is running and see the  results... you may need to switch between fullscreen and windowed to  trigger the changes.

Note: this modifies DirectX9 calls and therefore will not work in DirectX10 preview mode.
