Did someone purchase this product already ?  What's about its performance ?  Once I had bought it for P3Dv4, and I still remember its inferior performance compared to ORBX's in house tree addon "TreesHD".

Cheers,

Konrad.

Most interesting will be a face-off with Mister X's trees included in his Global package...

Still no seasonal trees?  Come on what's wrong with developers?  It's autumn, going into winter- why release summer trees now?

Because X-Plane doesn't support seasons out of the box.

Are they the same as his freeware HD trees pack?

Not sure, but I think he at least updated the variety in the Global product.

Anyone running Orbx TerraFlora & SFD Global?? Interested in comparison thoughts.

From what I can understand, TerraFlora was already included in Orbx TE Regions.

I think i would be lovely to have 3d trees at this point instead of 2000000000000 different versions of addons offering 4k textures of trees. I mean, they can vary the offering only that much. But i guess we'll have to wait for papa Austin to turn his eyes towards how ugly trees are (or maybe Ben).

That's the one!  Although X-Plane11 is a fantastic simulator, and in many aspects top notch, I'm still wondering about the persistence of this ugly, ugly trees :blink:   and why they reside in the sim to this day.

This must be one of the big enveloped secrets of X-Plane.

.....dear Papa Austin and Uncle Ben: pleeeeeeeease, we need a complete overhaul, we feel sooooo hideously !

Y'all do realize that tree textures are easily exchangeable, right?

Even at no additional cost:

So why the hell should LR need to waste time on this?

What I'd like Laminar to "waste time" on, is eliminating the weird radioactive glow effect when trees are back-lit by the sun at certain angles. The shadow side of trees should be dark, but instead they have this weird internal glow. If I remember right, that was introduced with the first release of v11.0 and it's never been fixed. 

If this new product uses the same trees as Orbx TE series, I'll take a look next time I fly in TE Washington to see if this fixes it. But I suspect this is an underlying problem in the XP lighting system. I don't have the Mister X trees or Global scenery (yet) to compare.
