As the weather over the Olympic Nat. Park isn’t the best, we decide to fly along the coast

Great shots.

 

Just curious, but in what way are MSE and ORBX combined? Arent those two of the same changes to the scenery, when installing the second, wouldnt it overwrite the first?


Cheers!

Love that Crescent Bay shot and the wonderful ORBX airports. The big Beechcraft really looks good!

Thanks a lot gents for your kind comments. It's appreciated

 

Great shots.

 

Just curious, but in what way are MSE and ORBX combined? Arent those two of the same changes to the scenery, when installing the second, wouldnt it overwrite the first?

I have ORBX PNW activated and place the MSE2 scenery below, so that the ORBX airports (freeware and payware) for that scenery show up. The PNW ORBX scenery will not show up, or only in places that are not covered by MSE, such as the parts of BC that are covered by ORBX PNW. If I place MSE above ORBX, the ORBX airports don't look very good, at least not on my FSX system. Even when placed below, you can still find some small misalignments around some airports, but at least for me it's a small inconvenience for having the best of both worlds: real world scenery for flying and wonderful ORBX airports with full autogen, when you need to refuel and plan to have your cup of coffee :-) 

 

I haven't tried it in other ORBX full fat regions yet, but at least in PNW it seems to work nicely. I think it should work that way also in other areas. The next one I am going to try is the ORBX payware Tahoe airport with MSE Lake Tahoe Ultra Res. below. Should be interesting

No, I just hit the "V" key and convert the pics into jpeg after I have made them a bit smaller with a photo-editor

Wow, I have MSE for Washington and Oregon and never knew you could still use the Orbx PNW airports in conjunction with it, simply by having them active, above MSE ...... excellent!  Going to try this. :)

 

Great pics too!

Good luck with it, Craig. If it works for me it should work for you too  :smile:
