Missing Lakes, should they be showing?

(1/1)

Hi....I am a newbie to FSX.  I noticed some lakes are misslng near me in the stock FSX/Accellrator.  If you go to www.google.maps.com and paste these co-ordinates in the
search box:

44.3544334, -83.8779595

They will bring you over Londo and West Londo lakes in northern Michigan.  If you zoom out a couple of times you can see Field of Dreams Airport to the East.  I installed, as a test, FSG US Landclass and the USA Base Terrain Mesh/EAST from the DVD.  I still cannot see these lakes(and others)  Should I be able to with the FSG products I mentioned?  I really thought FSX in its native state would show these and other smaller lakes.(the lakes aren't that small though)

Any info Appreciated...........

HI

FSG terrain mesh only includes the terrain, the shape of the ground, and not lakes and such.  If you don't have Ultimate Terrain (http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=utxusa) installed you are seeing default lakes, rivers, and coastlines, which generally aren't very accurate or complete.

Thanks

Justin/FSG
