Theme Parks in Flight Sim

So i finally got the driver working so can take screenshots in game. The game is stunning up above the land, but less than 1500ft is less than stellar.

One of the most jarring things about being close to the ground is the fact that the trees take priority over everything else - including other trees. There's other little discrepancies too, like Reptar being replaced with a giant Heart Leaf Philodendron and the RHLR main hill becoming an actual hill ingame. But all in all, here's what the game looks like from way above DW.

cool pics - surprising detail considering it isn't meant to be anything about the parks so very cool.

Judging by storm and sea viper the maps are between 2013 and 2014.

I think the ground overlay was taken from Bing and populated with the data from OSM. I'm pretty sure the bing satellite fell out of the sky shortly after 2014 so they haven't had any updates since.

I'm ballparking the dates around November 2013, because the GCCC has the bridal expo signs up and the best i could find is it running in November.
