I'm positive Clearview use a SKYBOX..CUBE mapping.
I'm positive Heli-x use SKYBOX mapping for it's sceneries.
I think Harald has 10 pages of sceneries on his site.
The images are 2048x2048 per/panel.

I'm pertty sure all you have to do it set up a scenery folder for CV.
Just use one of the scenery that's CUBE map as a guide.

There's some sceneries on CV's site. They're the same sceneries
you'll see for other sims. Not the lastest.

If you want more.

I'm postive I posted the CUBE the SPHERE converter on this site
and other sites..that you can download...It's a freeware.

I'm positive you can download Reflex or Aerofly sceneries that many
people made..It's everywhere...Just google.
RC SIM, Aeromodelism.org...places like that.

Just read the instructions on CV's site.
You just have to add back the bottom of the pano...via CANVAS size.
8192x4096...then feed it into convertor.

I thinks there's 7000 equirectangular avaible on Flickr.com

I'm pretty sure you can just google SKYBOX...serch under IMAGE
and there's Freebie skyboxes for vedio games everywhere.


Or you can send me a PM. I have collections of equirectangular from variouse sims.lol
I'm positive use can use them in CV...Here's some examples.

I like the aerial pano ...it's narley. It's at the very end of the vedio.
You gatta check out. Aldo hanged his camera on a kite and used
a remote control to take that pano...it's sweet. I just set the camera/pilot
hight to 350'. It's cool for gliders..
I'm pretty sure if you wanted to set up a pano with clifts for gliders.
it's the sameway.

Here's a scenery for CV in CUBE skybox.. LAKE JONNSON.
All you have to do is creat another folder.
Copy and paste the text files..or whatever CV use to execute the pano.
Then just rename the images..accordingly...instead of left, front..
rename it to img001....ect. in .jpg files.
If you just wanna use Heli-x sceneries....it's easy.
Then make buffer zones for the scneries you like..I guess.

Use NOTEPAD to open the landscape-par..to adjust the model position..etc.
