Hello,

 

Apparently we will see a release of ORBX scenery for the European environment later this year. Maybe current users of ORBX would care to enlighten me. Is ORBX compatible with add-ons like Ultimate Terrain and GEX or do they exclude each other? And If they are compatible, what does ORBX add? Thanks.

 

Regards,

René

See for yourself

They exlude eachother. Orbx does what GEX and Ultimate Terrain do. It provides textures and landclass and besides that much more. Because Orbx works on much smaller regions than GEX/UT it will be far more accurate. Compare an Orbx USA region with that same area covered by GEX/UT; that will give you an idea. Once you choose to cover Europe with Orbx scenery there's no need for GEX/UT anymore, ofcourse you would prefer the latter combination.

OK, thank you for the info. Having invested in UTE and GEX and flying mainly IFR, I'd bettter stick to those add-ons.
