I'm heading to bed, it can continue downloading / installing in the background.
Enjoy. I'll take a look at it tomorrow evening now.

Curious to see how this turns out regarding performance.

So far No performance hit for me. The foliage seems a bit too green with coloring combined with ground textures, But, other than that seems ok.

Any significant impact to loading time?

No performance hit? Not even over LA?

I currently have MSE + Nuvecta Autogen so the only reason for me to buy this package is for the enhanced city sceneries, such as LA downtown. Are these indeed improved over default?

Same exact combo I use also. I don’t see myself getting something else. While I love orbx Florida, I’ve noticed issues with very late loading autogen. It just hammers my cpu. Even locked at 30.

I have the basic manual through Orbx Central but can anyone point me to a more detailed manual that advises on recommended graphics settings etc?

Looking at San Diego / Coronado Island and it looks terrible even though I have ORBX Southern California & the Orbx Lindberg Field as well - I must have my settings wrong.

I thought that True Earth would give me such things as a more detailed rendition of the North Island naval base but it seems not.

I have mine locked at 30, everything on high, except EA on low. Consistent 28-30 smooth. I did a flight this Morning from L35- KSNA-KAVX-KHMT. Highest vram was 5.6/6.8. Great flight.

Interesting!

On my system the central valley looks like burnt toast - way too dark and way too red. I have an open (about a month now) thread on the Orbx support forum about Northern California being too red, have added SoCal as well. 

It is so bad, at least to my eyes, that I immediately uninstalled it.
