I already have x plane thanks. But let's address the point. Why haven't they made all runways sloped? How easy or time consuming is it going to be to do it yourself?

Hahaha, some like to get everything for free 😉

Do the beta testers know if the used textures ( ground and objects ) are the same in V5 than in V4 ?

My main Texture folder + several folders in Scenery /World have many modified textures and added bgl files...

If V5 uses the same base I can do a copy paste instead of installing lots of Addons all over again ....

Good question. It is also interesting to me.

The fact remains that the trailer is singularly unimpressive. Clearly, LM are going after simmers' pockets before these pockets are empty because MSFS2020.

Honestly, the ignorance and lack of insight shown by a handful of posts is staggering. Yet the statements are always posted as fact.

So why still bother to stir word not allowed here? Throw your money on MSFS whenever it will be released. It looks like can only be impressed by marketing, so i'm pretty sure you are in the wrong place here.

The trailer was certainly unimpressive, but your pocket is as secure as your impulsive decision-making allows it to be.  At the end of the day, the final decision is yours.  Simples.

My flightsim credit card is definitely practicing social distancing.😀

Mine will not be.  Everytime the V number gets higher, it wants to party.

Is actually already known whether there will be both ways to integrate Scenry.
Because at the moment I am still using the Scenry CFG for ORBX products, everything else runs on XML outside of the Sim.

That's a question bothering me, too. I could live with both of them, but the doubled schemes with numerous files spread all over the machine has been ugly, confusing, and error-prone. 

Kind regards, Michael

I would also like to know this. I may be paranoid, but I am not all that confident of the addon.xml method. Every single one of my P3Dv4 scenery packages is installed with the old scenery.cfg method, and they all work fine. I can enable and disable entries at will from within the simulator, and move them up and down to solve compatibility issues. Yeah, I know, sounds like a broken record......but it isn't actually broken.....and that's the point

apart from my legacy add-ons that I haven't converted to use the add-on.xml method, everything works just fine for me, when used in combination with @Lorby_SI add on manager (which is without doubt the most useful utity in the entire world)

I still prefer to do it directly from the Scenery Library within the simulator. Call me old fashioned and stubborn. I don't mind
