* Terrain in custom sceneries: The page as it stands is missing almost all custom terrain. Some old island custom sceneries have been merged into the automatically downloaded sceneries terrasync. If you are the creator of a Island scenery you can add it to terrasync by contacting the flightgear-devel [[Mailing_lists|mailing list]]. [[User:Wlbragg#Kansas_Custom_Scenery|Kansas/Midwest]] and [[US-Tennessee_Custom_Scenery|Tennessee]] are two examples of custom sceneries that aren't obsolete (March 2020). | * Terrain in custom sceneries: The page as it stands is missing almost all custom terrain.

* Regional definitions in FG core: Areas with regional definitions and materials which use recent engine features, that are in areas with reasonably high resolution terrain, have ''extremely'' high fidelity at high settings. ''The following list is not comprehensive'', and are just off the top of my head. Areas with regional definitions and materials that were updated with recent features like overlays and hhave high resolution terrain: Hawaii, Norway, Iceland, Sweden, Mediterranean landscapes (Spain, Sicily, Portugal, southern Italy, Greece). Areas with partial overlays and developed scenery with high resolution terrain: Swizerland, Alps (in many countries), central Europe & England, Corsica. Well developed areas with regional definitions that predate overlays: Alaska, South America (lower res terrain). Somewhat recently developed areas: South Africa in places (lower res terrain). | * Regional definitions in FG core: Areas with regional definitions and materials which use recent engine features, that are in areas with reasonably high resolution terrain, have ''extremely'' high fidelity at high settings.
