October 10, 20205 yr word not allowed that is beautiful! I absolutely love these 3rd party landmark and poi scenery addons! I really hope they do more. Especially in cities like Hong Kong, Singapore, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Bangkok, Taipei, Manila, Melbourne, Auckland, Honolulu, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Seoul, Busan, Tokyo, etc. ASUS ROG Maximus Hero XII ▪︎ Intel i9-10900K ▪︎ NVIDIA RTX 3090 FE ▪︎ 64GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro ▪︎ Windows 10 Pro (21H1) ▪︎ Samsung 970 EVO Pro 1TB NVME SSD (OS Drive) ▪︎ Samsung 860 EVO 2TB SATA SSD ▪︎ Seagate 4TB SATA HDD ▪︎ Corsair RMx 850W PSU
October 10, 20205 yr None of the boats seem to move. I even cranked up the wind and the sailboats didn't move. Don't we have any boats that move?

October 10, 20205 yr Bought it. I spotted where the ABC is on Harris St using the drone camera-even though the building is more of a generic model and not a custom modelled one and the Harbour Bridge modelling is so stunning-unreal!

Buying direct - - the dev gets the full profit rather than Microsoft getting a 30% cut - the updates are managed by the devs addon manager which can meean you get them earlier - the addon does nor showup as "owned" in the marketplace so you cannot rate it and could accidently buy it twice using marketplace - it shows up as "owned" allowing you to rate it and preventing buy twice errors - the marketplacce handles updates - ms get a 30% cut
October 10, 20205 yr Doesn't look good at all. Grainy, dull and washed out. Look at the marina in the last shot, the boats and the houses. Looks flat like someone pounded them with a hammer. Edited October 10, 20205 yr by Ricardo41
October 10, 20205 yr Bought it as well and I think it looks great. 15 years ago, I spent some time in Sydney and the first thing I did was visiting some of the places I remember. It‘s all there, the cafe in The Rocks where I had a coffee first thing when I arrived, the house I stayed in; my school and even the bar where I had far too many beers on the first night out have correct custom-made textures. Really gave me nostalgia. i9-11900K, RTX 4090, 32 GB ram, Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo, TCA Airbus sidestick and quadrant, Reverb G2

Looks flat like someone pounded them with a hammer. I am pretty sure those bits are identical to the default scenery, which for Sydney is 2D in Bing maps. The addon will just be improving points of interest and significant bridges and buildings for the most part. Some of those landmarks are already available as separate freeware (and the Crown building is downright ugly and I would pay to remove it ) and yes it is also possible a future MS official update to Oceania might make this update a bit redundant. So is it worth it ? if you fly Sydney a lot and do not want to mess with a batch of separate freeware updates possibly. Otherwise maybe not. I will probably get it.

I'll wait for their sale. MSFS

It's like putting truffels on a spam sandwich. Edited October 10, 20205 yr by Ricardo41
