What secret is hiding behind the Nazca and Palpa Lines, Peru ?
Maybe you can try to find it with a flight from Maria Reiche airport (SPZA), to watch the strange animals that the Nazca people drew between 500 BC and 500 AD.
Starting from SPZA, fly north (325°), until you get the 1st POI (the whale, about 5km north). Most geoglyphs are a more in the north (another 15km, follow the Panamerican Road).
New in version 2.0 :
The version 2.0 includes a major update with all Palpa area. Less famous than Nazca, because if was discovered very recently, this area includes many more amazing geoglyphs. The lines are located on the top of the hills (while Nazca were drawn on valleys) and are probably aged 1000 years older than Nazca lines.
The documentation includes :
- more information and external links about history of this area
- map of the geoglyphs
- flight plan files
Required Libraries :
Download and install the “Dave’s 3D People Library” in your community folder.
Installation :
Download all the .zip files (you should get 3, total size 3.8Gb), and install the 6 scenery folders in your Community folder.
If you want to get rid of the POI markers, and find the animals on your own, just delete "droide-nazca-poi" folder.
Flight plan files are to be used with FS2020 GPS or LittlenavMap
For users that already downloaded version 1 : delete version 1, download all files, and make a fresh install.
I used to smuggle in via google because the Bing data is really bad. Then i found your scene.
Just wanted to do another sightseeing flight, but with the last SU i get a CTD. 😞
Hopefully Bing will get better data soon.
Bt, love your Telescops!

So sorry to hear your CTD issue.
I double checked, no issue on my side with latest updates.

I love this mod, but I don't install the black and white aerials, even though they are higher resolution than the default. Deserts have wonderfully nuanced colors, but I found that with installing just "droide-nazca-poi" and "droid-nazca" I could have the best of both worlds. Your small, crisp b/w views of the iconic figures overlay the default landscape beautifully, and make it a lot easier to spot them.
At the moment the smaller figures have your great enhanced "ghost" images, and I hope you add the mid sized ones to the package, then it would be just about perfect. Also love the documentation (PDF), SPZA airport and other structures, and flight plans; highly recommended!

Agreed, Google aerial images (provided) have higher resolution, but less colors than original FS2020 images. The problem with original FS2020 is that some geogliphs are not visible

Hi, is it possible to release only the POI markers? There is a mod that allows ggle sat data streaming now.

Good point. The package include several folders. You can keep Nazca folder and POI folder, and remove the rest if you are using Google imagery addon.
But the aerials i am providing have been color-retouched, and manually improved on some geoglyphs.

You should fly north until you get the first POI (the whale).
I added a map in the documentation.

There is only 1 folder in your zip.
I have all of Dave's installed. No POI's for me, bummer

Instruction says "all the .zip" files. When you click on download link, two files are proposed. The second one "Nazca_File2_v10_uCx6K.zip" is very important. It includes not only the POI, but also manually retouched areas
