PacSim just released Reno-Tahoe for P3Dv4

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if this works in v4 or do I need to update to V4.2?

Default ATC keeps sending me to RW 34L for departcher but incoming traffic and all other departing planes are using 16R.   Anyone else having this issue.  I hate to ignore ATC but those near crashes are just too much!

I see that at not only the default Reno but also at flightbeam's ksfo and fsdreamteam's klax where it's really bad. This something I've noticed since V4 was released.

There is a work around: while at the terminal you can try advancing the sim rate to 4x for a minute or two, or as long as needed to clear the default traffic pattern and allow the pattern that the ATC sees to populate.

If you have Orbx scenery and have not disabled their afcad files it could conflict with the default atc

I have Orbix NorCal and SoCal ...actually all of the U,S. contiguous regions, do any of these have an airport bgl for krno? I did a quick search and couldn't find anything? 

 

off topic note: I'm all but certain I have ksfo and klax bgl's swiched in the xxx.bgl.off position.

Here is what PacSim says -- "DO NOT BUY THE PRODUCT BECAUSE IT WILL NOT WORK IN FSX, FSX STEAM, OR P3DV3/2/1 SIM PLATFORMS. THE PRODUCT IS MEANT SPECIFICALLY FOR P3DV4 SIM PLATFORM ONLY. NO REFUNDS GIVEN SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO IGNORE THIS WARNING."

So, based on that I would assume 4.1 works okay. I am running 4.2 with no problems.

Runs fine on my 4.1 install.

How does this scenery interface with ORBX Global textures and ORBX NorCal Region?

Thanks,

Greg

I would like to know this too, and would appreciate some screenshots of the transition from land class to photo real textures at the scenery's boundary's if anyone using base, vector, and openLC has this.

Good luck with that.  I gave up and spent my money elsewhere.  Wasn't able to find any kind of map showing the thousands of miles of coverage either.  For me, there were too many unknowns for the price.

I can say it looks fine and blends well.  There are special instructions for installing with Orbx.  I am away from my computer for several days however and unable to provide screenshots.

Took some screens for those who want to see the blending. I am using FTX Global, NorCal, Vector, and OpenLC. I'll let the screens speak for themselves as far as the blending quality.

Thanks, Will, for taking the time to create the splendid screenies.  Great job showing the borders of the scenery area and how it blends with the ORBX addons.
