Transparent Grass Option

Hello,
I noticed in the "My Products" page under Gatwick V3 there is a "transparent grass" option download. What does this do?
P.S. I also notice a V3.01 whilst the primary link seems to be V3. Should I download the V3.01 update or was it automatically included with the original download (which I did only a few days ago)?
P.P.S. what exactly are the AFCAD/AFD files?
I use FSX with Acceleration (i.e. SP2)
Thanks,
Will

The transpaent grass option is a version of the ground photo with all the grass removed from the photo.
Why?, well the only way to see snow in FS is to use default landclass scenery, so photo ground scenery can never have snow that reacts to the weather. By using the transparent version you see the default FS ground showing through the transparent section of the groundand you get snow.
Down side is that when its not snowing, you get the default ugly bland grass
If base product says V3, then thats what it is, install 3.01 if you want the latest update
'AFCAD' files are the files that controls where your AI aircraft park and how they taxi.
