Nick: Look at the leftmost menu on VistaPro 2.0. There is a Menu Item called Landscape Size. Small landscapes are 258 x 258 data points, and are the size you are used to playing with in earlier versions of VistaPro and Vista. Large is 514×514 data points, and can be a single landscape or made up of 4 Small landscapes. Huge is 1026×1026 data points and can be a single landscape or made up of 16 Small landscapes. Our "X" series scapes are made up so that the small landscapes will "lock" together to form a Large or Huge landscape with VistaPro 2.0. A Small landscape will typically load in a machine with 3 megs of memory, while a Large landscape needs 4.5 megs and a Huge landscape around 8.5 megs of FAST memory. This is described in more detail on pages 3-2 and 3-3 of the VistaPro 2.0 manual. Unfortunately, there was not room on the disks to save the Sessions from MakePath, however, these were very simple scripts made with MakePath, and should be able to be duplicated in just a few seconds. It was just "Load a landscape", "Set the flight mode", "Point and click to make a path", "Select Loop", "MakePath", "Save Script". MakePath will load Small, Large and Huge landscapes.
