Flat Earther requires help

Featured Replies

Hello,

If I put excludes over a gateway airfield, will they still be of use if the airfield is up-dated in gateway?

The reason I ask is that as a "flat earther" I prefer to use just ortho scenery and nothing else, I know, but hey, that's  my choice!

What's the best way of achieving this please?

 

Many thanks

Phil

You're into aviation and you're actually a flat earther?

Oh Yeah.  Did anybody actually see Columbus return to Spain or Italy, huh? 😉

I'm 99.5% sure this was tongue in cheek and referred to not having any 3D objects in the scenery.

 

@philmurfin

Delete or deactivate the "Global Airports" scenery folder. And seriously reconsider switching to GeoFS if you hate 3D objects.

I wonder if all this lockdown 'Word not allowed' is depriving people of any sense of whimsy. Quite possibly.

Thanks. However, as I'm wanting to get the most realistic flying experience that I can, I'll stick with X-Plane!

Bit hard in a flat world magnetic  lines dont need to bend around something thats flats and GPS wouldnt work as they have noting to spin around so it isnt very realistic in that reagard.

Forget the flat earther, it was just a nickname that someone attached to me on the forums as I didn't want 3d buildings.

I never thought it would cause such a forourey, time to chill!
