Hi from a new outerra fan.
Before proceeding, I'm checking out outerra's/anteworld's capabilities through the demo. A few questions, please bear with me:
I downloaded Anteworld 16.1.0.7503 and installed it on a PC (modern and fast) with temporarily no internet access. I also downloaded earth_px.otx,earth_pz.otx, Bern_OSM.otx (South Europe, Central Europe etc).
Now when I start Anterworld I always get the message "...Could not open...-bio/-x/base.desc", nevertheless the test scenes 'default.cam' and 'Monterrey...' work fine and as expected.
Then I doubleclicked (and they successfully installed themshelves according to the message I receive) the rest (earth_px.otx etc). My questions:
1. How do I move to a specific area or country (say, Germany) after the installation of those extras which offer no pre-saved positions?
2. Can I use for this the map interface with the red dot, clicking an area and then clicking 'set location'? Currently if I do this the program seems to load for ever
files with the extension "*.wad" and I get no scenery, regardless of how long this file loading is going on. (In one instance I left the program loading those
files for over 45 minutes and nothing happened. It just kept loading files).
3. The same thing happens with the 'Bern_OSM' addon when I click directly one of the '.jpg' pre-saved positions (Bern, Airport etc): eternal loading of '*.wad' files
and no scenery. What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks and congratulations on what seems to be the future of the flight and of real-world driving simulation

It's apparently still missing some data and trying to download them. Even if you have got the full datasets, it will check if there aren't newer data available.
Please check the eng.log to see what data it tries to download.

Hi cameni. I understand you are the leading person of this magnificent project.
Regarding your advice I checked out 'eng.log' and came up with the following recurring pattern:
00:20.258 INFO: downloading earth2/_cvd/+x/0-0-0.0.wad
00:20.258 INFO: downloading earth2/+x/0-0-0.1.wad

Thank you for the quick response

Ok cameni, I finally realised that an internet connection is indispensable even for the demo mode, so I did my best and restored internet connectivity. Now after a lot of automatic updates everything works out ok.
Just one last thing, before proceeding to the full version:
I was really fascinated by the swiss roads add-on and I'd like to make sure it will work with my outerra installation.
Yet unlike the "BERNE_OSM.otx" link on your pages which works fine, if I click on the "swiss_roads.otx" link all I get is a '403 not found'
error, the file is not available.
Could you please tell me, how can I get this "swiss_roads.otx" file?
best regards
