Flightbeam KPHX textures?

Featured Replies

Hi all!

I have recently flown into KPHX to check out embry riddle for spring break but that is besides the point. Anyway I have now fallen in love with skyharbor airport (KPHX), and I love all flightbeam products I have (PDX, SFO) but I am aware that KPHX in the past had some texture issues. Just wondering if it is worth it and if those bugs have been fixed. 

Thanks!

I have their PHX, I wasn't aware of any texture issues honestly? I think its a great airport to fly into and out of. It is a lil older compared to their newer stuff, still excellent quality however. Would highly recommend.

I highly recommend it. I love the airport they made, to me it still looks as good as a new airports these days. I also haven’t had any issues either.

No issues here.

The only issues I've encountered are elevation issues which can actually be fixed by setting a lower Mesh complexity setting.

I am a little bothered by the blending of the overall airport in the surroundings (I am using ORBX Global + LC).

Great airport and as always great scenery addon from Flightbeam. Get it. Only small issues if you have orbx vector installed but there’s easy fixes for that. Only texture I know of was the old US Airways on the hanger but there’s a texture update for it found here http://www.fs2000.org/2016/06/30/fsx-sky-harbor-new-american-hangar-replacement-textures/ 

also if you have any issues you can just browse their forums under KPHX and you’ll most likely see your issue there with a fix. If not Sammy or even myself can help you out.

Ok sweet! I am actually at KPHX now waiting for my flight home on my way to spot a AAL 757!! But I am definitely getting this airport I love it in real life, I’m sure I’ll love it in the sim. Also just saw one of AA’s new a321 neo aircraft!! Beautiful as I imagined
