Drzewiecki Design's Miami City X

[orbmis 9]

Hello,

I just picked up DD's Miami City scenery this weekend, as it has just been moved to a 'free download' status (see Bargain Hunter's Shack  forum). One question I do have before I get started,, does this scenery install via the newer P3D XML method for add-ons, or does it still use the older scenery.cfg method. Just looking for information as I get ready to begin the process.

Thanks for your help,

Mike

It still installs in your addon scenery folder.

Where can I find a Miamy City X by DD for Prepa3d? I only see a XP version and a FS2004 version in their products list.

Kind regards, Michael

As Raymond said. It's a nice scenery, but I believe it dates back to 2012... So it's kind of old and doesn't support much of the newer technologies available in newer version s of P3D. I can only guess as to why DD never updated it, but I won't be surprised if it has something to do with latinVFR adding large swaths of Miami to their KMIA addon over the years.

It uses the add-on.xml method. The default location for the scenery is in your Prepar3D vX\Addon Scenery folder, but you can put it anywhere and the installer adds a folder with an add-on.xml in your My Documents\Prepar3D vX Add-ons folder.  So, in short, it installs just like other DD scenery and is added to the library via the add-on.xml method and not the scenery.cfg method.

nor on SimMarket

is it marked as P3D compatible.

Kind regards, Michael

It's as said by Benjamin. The Latin VFR airport + City is indeed good.
