Now that's an interesting concept...

It certainly looks good from x000s of feet and for the price might be tempting -----

when Queensland is offered and we have Eastern Oz complete

I noted that S,A, was experimented on

It sort of reminds me of the original  Orbyx red /blue /green and Gold offerings way back in 08 -  the 

prelude to Aus 1

Assumption is for P3D V4 only at this time - and are the transmission from one area to another - seamless ??

Have been using Orbx Central since its very beginning and it is improving all the time by adding scenery and software from various developers. I have Orbx Australia 2 and New Zealand as well as all the major airports and some smaller ones for both countries. As far as photoreal scenery is concerned  I have all the Gibson scenery but disappointed that there is no coverage for the whole country by any developer and cannot understand why Queensland. South and Western Australia have not been created, ditto with New Zealand.

New full version - new Runways - Taxiways etc are done - and it will be released in Jan 

A new charge will be made for the upgrade - but maybe you can buy the old one in the usual sale and then get the upgrade

and save a couple of Bucks

Good advice and thanks for the heads up!

 

May i ask anoher question, anyone have any experience with MSFG's Perth? How does this look/perform? I dont have any MSFG products so would be curious to know you experiences. 

I'm a fan of the Gibson Sceneries stuff. Allows huge parts of NSW, ACT, VIC, Tassie and NT to be covered by aerial imagery scenery.

The resolution is lower, so that it saves disk space. Yet at cruising altitudes you get a close approximation to looking out of a real aeroplane window.

Another bonus is that you can choose a layer to allow landclass to pop through at lower altitudes. Works well with Orbx Aus v2, so that it isn't just flat aerial imagery on departure / approach either from / to an airport.

It looks like they have a demo.

I might give that a try.

As Rogen mentioned, there are Megascenery titles as well. Looks like they are half off right now. I really like their V3 state regions. Color matching is much better than TE on the west coast; no red :>}

While it’s nowhere near top payware quality, it’s better than default, and is doing the job nicely until the Orbx version comes out, whenever that maybe.
