Some of the textures on my autogen trees in P3Dv4.5HF2 look a bit rough, so I have been considering upgrading them with the ORBx Global Trees HD package. What I would like to know is.....just how much of an improvement to tree texture quality (and overall look) does this package provide over (for example) the bog standard autogen trees in ORBx TrueEarth Great Britain? The screenshots look good, but I need to be convinced by the AVSIM membership

I don’t remember what they were like before. But I remember being happy with the purchase

They don't get used with TrueEarh products, see the Global Trees HD manual, it states clearly that they are not used with TE.   Best....  Phil

So how do I get upgrades for the TrueEarth trees?

You need the terraflora V2 product. It stops the TE trees in the U.K. jumping out at you and looking cartoonishly unrealistic.

It gives a subtle but pleasant change in texture to the TE landscape 

It’s only about fiver (U.K.) cheap enough to give it a try

Both the trees and the buildings (different product) add  a whole lot of realism to ORBX and P3DV5.

The TerraFlora v2 package (and GlobalTrees HD for that matter) are £19 on the ORBx Central Store.....

Terraflora 2 is great product and I'd prefer it to Global HD trees.

HD Buildings is also a great product and greatly enahances the default buildings.Although be aware many Orbx airports will not use default buildings anyway but you will end up with HD roofs. Mostly this issue seems to occur when an airport update for P3D v5 or their True Earth product is released. I raised the issue over at Orbx where there was a bit of back and forth but I doubt they will revert and resolve.

Both still worth the $$ though.

Sorry about that misinformation then, it’s showing as 9.95 AUD when I select it in orbxdirect.com

Both have been reduced to around £11 by the current US Election sale.
