I've uploaded the Antelope Valley scenery pack to the orbiter-radio download mirror:
http://orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/mirrors/orbiter_radio/tex_mirror.html
It may be picked up by the other mirrors shortly.
This pack contains high-resolution textures for Antelope Valley in southern California, including the areas around Edwards AFB, Mojave Air and Spaceport, and Palmdale USAF Plant 42. It also contains new/updated versions of those bases, and a few scenarios to introduce the pack.
Also check out the PDF in the Doc folder with some more details and potentially useful airport diagrams.
The download is about 800MB, but will expand to about 2GB on unpacking.
Installation: unpack the zip file into the Orbiter root folder, using the 7-zip "Extract here" option (or equivalent for your unzip tool). The important thing is not to create an additional "antelope_scn" folder, as some unpackers insist on doing, but to have the zip contents (Config, Textures, Scenarios, ...) directly ending up in the Orbiter root folder. Allow overwriting files if prompted.
Note that the included textures are in "cache" format, i.e. packed as individual tile textures, rather than compressed "tree" archives. To have them show up in Orbiter, make sure that your Orbiter is configured for looking both in the cache and the archive (should be default).
If you want to keep the addon and want to reduce the disk footprint, you can merge the cache tiles into your texture tree archives. This can be done with the "Utils\texpack" tool, but is tedious, because it requires unpacking your complete tree archives into the cache, adding the addon, and then repacking, which can take several hours. Instead, Face's tree tools should be able to do the job more quickly and efficiently.
