Introduction

When we released Manhattan for FS2004 it was a controversial release. Clearly it showed a very high definition scenery but it was slow, the hardware many simmers had at that time. (We do not expect this new version to be different btw.) But in the end it was an unbridled success as hardware started to catch up and it became our best selling scenery product, both in download as well as in boxed format.
With the release of FSX it was unavoidable that we would update this award winning product using the latest developments. The high-rises of Manhattan are is suitable to some of the new possibilities. Bump mapping makes buildings more 3D like and specular reflections are ideal for the glass surfaces. Adding a mission perfects the scenery and allows you to explore the heliports.
