Godzone - depicting New Zealand in Flight Simulation
"Welcome to Godzone."
"-Where?"
"That's what we call New Zealand sometimes...
"Not in a religious nutter way, we're just smug, 'cause we're the best."
'Drew', Shortland Street.
Godzone has been producing New Zealand scenery for simmers since the days of FS2002. By 'Godzone' I really mean me, Robin Corn, although sometimes I do collaborate with other local developers.
The current project is Real NZ Christchurch, which was initially released for Prepar3d, and will be followed by FSX, and then versions for Aerofly FS2 and X-plane, to test the demand for quality scenery in these alternative simulators.

The subscription is no longer available for purchase, but existing subscribers can still access the Subscriber downloads and content, the 'get started' button is the best way to get to the subscriber content.

Low-flying detail
Some people think that photoscenery doesn't offer the same ground-level 3D detail that they are used to, but Godzone photoscenery includes autogen buildings and vegetation, some hand-placed, and other custom Points of Interest.
About this site:
This site was originally created as a Godzone Photoscenery Subscription site, and although the Subscription is no longer the main focus, subscribers can still access the existing Subscription scenery.
Mainly, though, it is the new Godzone Store, where you can see details and purchase 'Real New Zealand' and 'Godzone' scenery. Currently there are just a few 'Real New Zealand' products, but hopefully I can release new scenery as it is completed.

Wellington – not just an airport!
I like to divide a working day into different jobs, just to keep from getting bogged down in some of the more boring bits, so I tend to alternate between the airport and the city. Wellington city involves a lot of autogen placement, which can be tedious, but it does…
Looking for a flightsim scenery designer?
Since 2006 I’ve been living entirely on the proceeds from my ‘Real New Zealand’ scenery sales, topped up occasionally with some graphic design work for some long-term clients. However since 2009 I’ve been recovering from some severe health problems, and now that I’m fully recovered I am looking at ways…
The future of Godzone...
At the moment I am reworking the concept of Godzone Virtual Flight, getting back to the early days of Godzone, releasing high quality scenery based around New Zealand airports.
Currently, I am working on step 1 of the multi-platform project, funded in part via Kickstarter. The first release will be Real NZ Christchurch, and the success of this will determine the future of multi-sim support.
