mutley 4,498 Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 As part of our X-Plane double-header this week Joe Lawford has been sightseeing in X-Plane using Flight1's VFR Photo Scenery for X-Plane. Would this tempt a UK FS pilot to try X-Plane? Read on... Link to post Share on other sites

Clem Wu 1 Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 Great honest review; that water sure looks good! Link to post Share on other sites
needles 1,013 Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 A very nice review Joe. It does look good but I am not using XPlane at the moment plus Playsims' Scotland Scenery has a 5m terrain mesh as opposed to a 10m mesh with this and .50m/pixel scenery. It still looks impressive though. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 I think I'll wait for Darren to catch up with X-Plane Treescapes... Good Review, Boss - Thanks for all your efforts! Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted October 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Dai, I did ask if TreeScapes where to be made available but it wasn't confirmed or denied, With the OSM2XP program you can make your own. Darren uses a tool very similar to this to generate his trees. Cheers, Joe Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Thanks for the H.U., Joe - I'd not heard of this OpenStreetMap facility. Maybe LimeSim used OSM2XP for L.A.-X? There is supposed to be an FSX version coming up - and P3D too, perhaps... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
Kasper 14 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Good review, no need to stop using FSX/Orbx yet but progress is certainly being made. The series will surely be a contender for the future former FSX market. Link to post Share on other sites
