Hello! I have recently installed Prepar3d and Orbx England and Wales. And I must say, unfortunately, I am very disappointed. Lets start with an issue I think of as the least important. Anyone who lives here in Wales knows that the scenery is very vibrant and green. However Orbx's Wales scenery (and England) appears very dull, grey and generally a bad representation of Wales. If this is an issue and the beautiful screenshots on the Orbx website are not works of Photoshop please let me know how to fix it! Secondly, and by far the most important issue is the fact that the water is BRIGHT GREEN!

I've been a little lax, for want of as better word, in updating my ORBX Sps.. I have Southern Alaska, Goodwood and California to add on,but there are quite a few service packs listed.. Question: how can I tell how many of the SPs I have already installed? I might have downloaded some SPs but just not installed them.. Is there a way to tell what I have and haven't done? I know that the .LIBS is accumulative, but the SPs don't appear to be. Answers on a postcard... Cheers all Minx

This is an Orbx FTX airport, and as such a copy of FTX: Global BASE must be installed prior to use. Valley of the Rocks. Monument Valley is located on the Arizona-Utah state line and is a large area that includes much of the area surrounding Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park. Developer Frank Dainese has constructed 3D models of the mountains by using DEM data and then textured them with photographic images - creating a perfect replica of the real thing. This follows on from his very popular Yosemite freeware release where this method of creating life-like models of mountains was demonstrate

Several changes afoot around my various Airhauler operations. It all started with a trial of ORBx based products via Misha Cajic's "NA-Airstrips-Vol1" airstrips which was on sale 1/2 off recently. It's a wonderful product, and made me realize how much I missed trees and buildings...autogen and such that is missing in MSE scenery. I really hope he is working hard on Vol.2 as I will definitely be a customer. Kudos again. I decided that the perfect airplane for hauling cargos to those challenging fields was not actually an airplane... My Virtavia Ch-47 at the 98TE Glide/Hilltop field. No

Here's a strange shadow or something on the ground at NZAA, using the ORBX New Zealand North Island package in Air Hauler. I have not checked whether or not this appears at this airport when AH is not running - that's next. It first appeared when the aircraft was about 30NM out. I get the same thing at NZNR only it's 4 parallel lines instead of one. Any ideas anyone? FSX and Acceleration. EDIT: Time is approximately local Noon. The same line appears in the same spot when AH is NOT running - same aircraft, same airport. I also checked with the default hang glider - same thi

Home to the high flyers. With it's picture-perfect location, Monterey is a city nestled at the southern end of Monterey Bay on the mid-Pacific coast of California. Following hot on the heals from his highly-popular Redding Airport, acclaimed developer Jarrad Marshall (Redding/Spokane/Jackson Hole/Bozeman/Broome) returns to Northern California with his latest offering. Of course this is not just an airport scenery; expect to find a large swathe of surrounding scenery to explore, including the entire City of Monterey, large portions of the Peninsula, Pebble Beach and north to Seaside.
