February 23, 201016 yr Has anyone seen posted the download size? I am also eagerly awaiting this product. We lived on Kitsap Penninsula for 10 years and just last October moved back to New Mexico. I truly miss the beauty, but I was getting claustrophobic because there are too many dang trees and everyting is always wet. We used have have slugs and eggs for breakfast :( You can never ever see the horizon (at least on the ground).TksBG
February 23, 201016 yr I just pre-ordered both PNW and Twin Oaks. I just flew out of Twin Oaks yesterday in a Cub Crafter S2... it was fun and I have been waiting FOREVER for Bill to get this little airport done. I remember having breakfast at Twin Oaks with Bill talking about it and I think FSX wasn't even released yet!

February 23, 201016 yr There are some screenshots posted at the Orbx forums with new textures for the trees. They look fantastic :(And what about these shots of the different seasons? I think they look spectacular. Cheers, Bert AMD Ryzen 5900X, 32 GB RAM, RTX 3080 Ti, Windows 11 Home 64 bit, MSFS 2024
February 23, 201016 yr It will be a huge download - almost 4 gig. (Right now it's up to 3.8 gig)John can confirm the actual download size. MSFS
February 23, 201016 yr Commercial Member OK we have the final assets in place now and I can tell you it's about a full DVD's worth of download, that is - 4.21GBHolger snuck a whole bunch more photoreal mountain areas into the RTM build, which makes things bigger, but ultimately definitely worth including. Cheers, John Venema

February 24, 201016 yr Looks like it will be back to small iron for quite some time when this comes out
February 24, 201016 yr I lived in Alberta and flew to BC, Wa. and Or. several times a month, mostly to smaller airports in towns and smaller cities. However I was once stuck at SEA-TAC for more than a day because of near arm-length fog, and ended up taking my life into my own hands by renting a car and driving to Vancouver. There is nowhere as beautiful as this part of the world (when the fog has lifted and it's not raining). I can hardly wait to get back over it at about 1500 feet. My first trip will be from Langley to Medford Or. ORBX is brilliant in the way they uniquely portray scenery. Their PNW will be above all our expectations, you wait and see!
February 24, 201016 yr Commercial Member Hey John, I am very excited, already pre ordered !! Can I just make one comment / request ? For the next area / s I hope that you are going more North, rather than south and west into the states of washington etc. This is because I already have that area pretty much covered by existing sceneries, such as Megascenery Earth , Massive scenery and my own scenery compiled from TileProxy. I was really hoping that the project was going to cover the beatiful mountain wilderness areas of Canada mostly. Can you give us any hints or details as to future additional area coverage ? Cheers, and thanks for the hard work you have put in to this!Mark
February 24, 201016 yr My 20mb/sec download speed eats GBs for breakfast. :(Would you download this for me and mail me the DVD :( I am at about 2 mb on DSL. Wow that is huge.BG
