Real Scenery Oahu

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I'm after a really high quality scenery for X-Plane, and was very impressed by the screenshots I've seen of RS Oahu. I am using X-Plane 9 on my MacBook Pro at the moment (it's not powerful enough to run v10 smoothly), and don't have all of the world scenery discs installed (to save HDD space). If I buy and download Oahu, do I need the world scenery region installed for that area?

 

I'm also looking at the new Carenado Caravan in envy - do you think these two would go well together?

 

Thanks!

Hello !

 

Yes these two go very well together. B)

It's even better with OSM2XP buildings:

And the PHNL airport buildings are available here:

I'm not sure if you need this region from the default world scenery. If yes, just ask the installer to add only this part of the world:

Happy flying. B)

It was your shots which really swayed me to it!! Some of the best XP shots I've seen!

 

I would like to add the OSM2XP to it, but am a relative XP newbie and have no idea where to start. Would you be able to give me a little guidance? I'd really appreciate it!

 

RE the world scenery, my XP discs are at home, and im not at home!

Great shots MD Max,

 

I fired up both the Caravan @ Oahu, to take some quick shots, but you beat me to it. A great combo of scenery and plane. They go together very nice.

This is also a great plave to fly the DC-3!

There is converted OSM data you can download off the net. I think I got this from the.org

Fantastic screenies!

 

I purchased Oahu, but can't get it downloaded. The installer just crashes with an error "Cannot read the ZIP file Index_Map_Oahu.zip". Tried many times, rebooted, deleted the installer, deleted the said file, no joy! Have written a note to X Aviation so will see.

Hey Tom and Phantom,

 

I too am experiencing the same error when I am downloading Oahu.  I sent an email to Real Scenery who told me to contact X-Aviation, but I am awaiting their response.  Can either of you let me know what needed to be done to get it to work??  Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Steve

7-zip is a free file extractor that sometimes works on files that others cant open. http://www.7-zip.org/

 

Its worth a shot, and good to have in your inventory, anyway.

Its really nice scenery but it's only one Island. If you are like me you will get bored of it in 5 minutes. Hopefully they will finish the rest of the islands one day. At the current pace it will probably take them another 10 years.
