FS2XPlane conversion of payware FSX sceneries to X-Plane

Featured Replies

I wanted to start a thread for those of you who own payware scenery packages for FSX such as Flytampa, Aerosoft, etc. Would like to make a thread to discuss conversion settings, issues, etc with other members on here. Which scenery package have you had success with and or minimal trouble converting?

 

I have had minimal issues with converting FlyTampa Dubai, Hong Kong and St. Marteen for use with X-Plane 10. But I had to do a little cleanup afterwards and there are still a few weird issues with multiple runways not lining up properly and such. I almost have a good working FlyTampa Hong Kong conversion except for the runway issue and a few other things not lining up properly. I had an error while converting about having duplicate airport entries in a bgl file, so I had to delete that file and rerun the conversion in order to let it complete. I think this is one of the reason why my airport isn't looking perfect.

 

I have quite a few more addons for FSX that I'd like to convert for X-Plane use. Such as Aerosoft Manhattan X, San Francisco, ImagineSim VHHH Chek Lap Kok, etc. If those of you who own any of these packages and would like together and help each other out on getting these conversions almost perfect, that would be great.

I own many FSX sceneries and no conversion has worked yet. All had bugs and need adjustments. Too much work because they must not be shared. Enjoy them in FSX, it's easier. What's next, a conversion of aircraft, OPUS weather and AI traffic? XPX has to learn to walk on it's own feet, it's the most advanced flighsim.

Aerosoft city sceenries do quite well

 

FS9 sceneries also convert better than FSX in my experience.   The old FS9 portland looks great in XPX.

Gents, sorry to have to do this, but Aerosoft doesn't want their FSX product ported into X-Plane.  I'll have to lock this thread.

Sincerely,

Chase
