Description
- Introduction
The Elbe Sandstone Mountains, better known as Saxon Switzerland, are probably the most imposing rocky mountains in Germany outside the Alps. Since the original Bing sceneries unfortunately only show green hills instead of steep rocks and the interest in this landscape is high, therefore this add-on. The scenery is northeast of Rathen and includes the town of Hohnstein, the village of Waitzdorf and the rocky areas Brand and Ochel.
The sceneries were created from Google Maps using the Google Earth Decoder.

The zip file with "V2" contains the newer version. I also don't know how the version information in FlightSim.to comes about.

Thanks for the reply. Here it is easy, because there is just one old file and the new one. Some other Saxon Switzeland sceneries with more than one file are a bit more problematic. It's hard to exactly know which files to install. Maybe you could add that into the description. Anyway, thanks for the great eye candy!

Hello,
here I also have a problem. There are two files to download, the "Main File" after clicking on download "ESG_Brand_Gk_sIxYf" says version 2.0, but it seems to be version 1.0. I assume the new file is the one with V2 in the filename "ESG_Brand-V2_Gk_I3wCb.zip"? Here flightsim.to says it's version 1.0.
Can you check, please? Thanks.
