March 4, 201016 yr Ahhh yeah!! I'd buy FTX Great Lakes - I live just off Superior!! Northern MN is a beautiful place to fly over! ;) ;)This been just released and all you are talking about next releases :( ... Well, keep on dreaming (so do I). Next release should be something European, right? Scotland would be great!
March 4, 201016 yr Our vacation last summer was walking & sightseeing in the Canadian Rockies, so I was interested in this. But so far I've not found a map showing exactly what area it covers. Could someone point me to one please?--Terry, East Grinstead, UKAnyone know of a map showing coverage please? Specifically, I'm trying to find if it includes any/all of these:CalgaryCranmoreBanff National parkLake LouiseYoho National ParkColumbia IcefieldJasperKananaskis--Terry, East Grinstead, UK
March 4, 201016 yr Commercial Member We have a kmz file for Google Earth which lists every airport, POI and feature in PNW. Download the kmz and user guide from here - http://fullterrain.com/product_nablue.html Cheers, John Venema

Download the kmz and user guide from here - http://fullterrain.com/product_nablue.html Thanks, got it.My North American geography obviously isn't too good! Unfortunately none of my vacation locations are covered.Can we ever expect a UK equivalent?--Terry, East Grinstead, UK
March 4, 201016 yr Hi Bob,The elevation adjustments we have are only applied within the boundaries of PNW, so it does not affect anywhere outside the area. Funny thing is, we honestly did not expect anyone to disable PNW and then go fly there again using default. Our bad. We're working on a patch to FTX Central which also disables those elevation adjustments. Meantime, one workaround is to disable (not delete!) all ADE_FTX_PNW*.BGL files in Scenery\World\Scenery - there are 99 of them.Hi!I understand all of the above. My question again is what affect if any, does leaving the PNA area active when flying outside PNA? (i.e. flights from KPDX to KSFO or KSEA to KPANC or KPHL to KJKF). Thanks.Bob.. :) Bob Prince
March 4, 201016 yr I reckon you're expecting too much, Paul.. I ran the i7-950 at 4.0 gig and was "as happy as Mitch", before PNW, and so I dropped down to 3.8 and got pretty good performance at that - but now PNW has re-written the book.We've just spent a three-four-week spell of BufferPools=yada, and TBM=yada, and I've got my beast as smooth as silk, locked at 25, most things Max or close to max, and me feeling excellent! .... and then, having loaded PNW a couple of days ago - I feel like I've got to start all over again. It's now mostly satisfactory, but if you want to see 24+ fps with 25% GA and Commercial, with some (minimal) road - plus decent ASE/REX weather, then you need more horses than the 3.33 you have at this moment. The good part is - an ASUS PT6 (not the deluxe) is cheap as heck, along with the hugely overclock-able, well-documented i7-920 - the pain isn't too great and it will work. I think there's newer procs on the horizon, but the i7 captured me a few months ago, so I went for it, and I'm glad I did, because the C2D, o/c/d at 3.2, wasn't anywhere near as powerful as the i7. Anyway - good luck.Thanks Paul - that's exactly what I needed to hear. I thought this might be the case, and I've been close to making the leap to an i7, so time to go shopping. Paul Skol
March 4, 201016 yr There is a possibility that parts of the ORBX PNW could make you sick. The problem is that the mind is firmly convincd that what the eyes see is real. This can induce vertigo and exasperate fear of hieghts and terror of falling. :(

March 4, 201016 yr Any pics of KHIO, KAST and KTTD. Back on Fs2004 I used to fly those airports all the time with Dreamfleet Dakota along with the Portland Flight Zone2 and Holger sandman addons. Take off from Troutdale and headover to Hillsboro to gas up before the trip up the coast to land at Astoria while the sun was setting and boats where still out in the water. Funny the memories you get while flying a sim.
March 5, 201016 yr What traffic addon are you using, Jigsaw? i7 [email protected] | 32GB RAM | EVGA RTX 3080Ti | Maximus Hero VII | 512GB 860 Pro | 512GB 850 Pro | 256GB 840 Pro | 2TB 860 QVO | 1TB 870 EVO | Seagate 3TB Cloud | EVGA 1000 GQ | Win10 Pro | EK Custom water cooling.
March 5, 201016 yr Those shots of Those 3 airports bring back alot of fun memories. Always fun on approach to KTTD when your coming in from the river and its overcast and misty. Looks like I'am going to need the New RXP 430 to do some WAAS Approaches now from the soup.
