Do you know of any sotware that had an increased level of polygon mesh complexity for the USA and/or Europe?

Thank you.

I mean, the terrain of FS is pretty flat, in most cases. what I want is a more detailed terrain (not the textures, I've already taken care of that.) I mean, compare rough wood to smooth glass. I want the rough wood. Get my drift?

I think you are looking for a "terrain mesh". FS Global is an excellent one so I've heard, and there are many good free ones on avsim.

Thanks very much.

But I need help with a small issue here. I'm currently using Ultimate Terrain USA & Europe. As far as I know apart from landclass (textures) data, they provide terain mesh as well.
Is there a way to replace the Ultimate Terrain mesh with another? (I'm trying to save disk space here) Thanks again.

UT does not provide mesh, I believe. Only landclass textures, roads, streams, etc.

There are plenty of LOD9 meshes for the US and Europe on Avsim.
