ORBX OpenLC NA (Part 2) release imminent

Featured Replies

Question, as I have UTX and plan on getting OpenLC NA to go with FTXG.  I understand you would uncheck most of the landlcass options in UTX, but what about all of the 'Other Terrain Features' such as golf courses, parks, etc.  Would these things be included with the new ORBX LC or do you still have these enabled??

 

Thanks!

 

Some people drive Lincolns and others drive Cadillacs.  It's your choice.   

 

Do not confuse Landclass files with Vector Files.  They serve two different purposes and that's why Orbx has two different programs.

 

My experience is that the Orbx team has gone to great lengths to match what is on the ground and if you use both LC and Vector and check them against Google Earth you will find very little difference.  This is especially true in their Region and Airport Packages where they spend even more time and money on development.

 

I fly P3Dv3.3 and have found sticking to Orbx solves a lot of problems.  Orbx developers use the same set of standards in their work so, as a rule, everything works as it should.  That is not saying that it is problem free, it's not, but the FTX Community Forum group provides great support.

 

You will find that a growing number of other than Orbx developers are now testing their products on Orbx systems to ensure compatibility in both operation and color blending.

 

If we all used exactly the same computer none of these problems would exist, but alas, we don't so it is up to each of us to iron out the problems that pop up on our systems.

    If there is, and is indeed substantial, I may be interested. Thanks for the heads up.   Although if I did buy this, it would mark a good 8 months since I've spent any money on any ORBX products.  Th

    To get an idea of how expensive and difficult it is to get a product like this to market watch this interview with JV at FlightSim Com 2016.       Dale

Anyone else havng problems downloading this? I cannot seem to be able to connect to any of the FSS servers, although a test download just now of some Avsim freeware worked without any problem. I wonder if the servers are overloaded?

I thought they moved to Amazon Cloud distribution servers?

Took me four hours to download part 1. Once completed, windows was not able to read the zip file.

Once someone manages to get it I'd appreciate some screenshots from the Florida keys. Thanks in advance.
