March 28, 20206 yr Wow I just realized there's three different versions of San Diego LVFR version 1 (which is what I have), they now have a version 2 and Orbx. Is it worth changing to v2 or Orbx? Does anyone recommend one over the other? I see both are on sale (LVFR 16.99 usd and orbx about 12.50 usd) I do have Orbx SoCal FWIW Edited March 28, 20206 yr by ryanbatcund | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
March 28, 20206 yr I use the ORBX SAN + iniBuilds.com Dynamlic lighting profile. The ORBX DL has terrible performance but iniBuilds makes it a perfect scenery.

March 28, 20206 yr Hi, Ryan. I never had LVFR, but I have Orbx KSAN and I thinks it's great!! Mike CyberPowerPC - Gamer Supreme Gaming Desktop - AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D - 64GB Memory - AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB - 4TB PCIe 4.0 SSD
March 28, 20206 yr I have both and each are fantastic renditions, however I prefer the ORBX version only because of how it blends in with all of my other ORBX products.

March 28, 20206 yr I have both and both are great but i settled on the orbx version. IIRC you get more of the downtown skyline and surrounding scenery with the orbx version.

March 28, 20206 yr Interesting video. Thanks, @vbazillio for sharing. 🙂 I cannot judge on the accuracy, but personally I like the ORBX version best (judging from that video). Best regards,--Anders Bermann-- ____________________Scandinavian VAPilot-ID: SAS2471
March 28, 20206 yr Commercial Member I used FSDT for several years but now I have been using Orbx version. Orbx KSAN + simwestSOCAL gives me best overall look and performance.

March 28, 20206 yr A minority opinion -- I use the LatinVFR v2 version and am very happy with it. Along with Megascenery San Diego UltraRes and MagMexico's Tijuana Photoscenery works great. KSAN is very near the border and the Tijuana PS adds a lot to the area.

March 28, 20206 yr I would have been very happy with the LatinVFR version if the ORBX version didn’t exist. Both are very good, but if buying only one I would still buy orbx, especially if it’s on sale a bit cheaper right now.

March 28, 20206 yr While I agree that the OrbX buildings are better detailed, I personally flee that the colors of the aprons are off in the OrbX. Overall, the Orbx rendition strikes me as very 'dark'. The LatinVFR is lighter in its color palette and I prefer that. Also, the performance is truly excellent for me, so I have always stuck with the LatinVFR KSAN. Please keep one thing in mind: that video is from 2017 and does NOT represent LatinVFR's current version!
