Any opinions on Zurich and Geneve?

Thinking about those or the Basel/Mulhouse airport which is newer.

And...what about their older (?) Hawaiian airport collections #1 and #2 for FSX/FS9.  Would like to hear about frame rates and how they fit in with Orbx global.

I have ORBX and the Hawn Airports 1 and 2. It's seamless and the airports are well done so it makes for some fun island hopping. I've used both the "default" Orbx PHNL and the FSDT PHNL and prefer the FSDT one so I'd get that too if you can. And whichever way you go the Honolulu Cityscape is stunning.

Both are good. They're older of course but were excellent quality and imho still are and worth the money. FSDT has done an excellent job on the scenery and they're great locations too for flying around or out of Europe.

Beware Zurich for P3D.

It has awkward pieces of airport equpiment popping in and out randomly. You naither can remove them nor is the developer willing to fix that.

You can take a look at their support forum.

How do I uninstall FSDT airports (Vancouver specifically) and GSX in P3D4? I never wanted GSX, but had to install it otherwise airport won't install. Now I can't find a way to uninstall anything and it installed a lot of things all over my PC.

Add or Remove programs and select from the various FSDreamteam entries.

Control Panel and Uninstall Programs? Easy as two or three clicks with a mouse.

Awesome, thanks guys, nothing showed up when I tried it the last time. Go figure

CYVR (Vancouver) is on sale at FSDT and ORBX.

I have lots and lots of ORBX including their PNW region.

FSDT say the FSX version of CYVR works with P3Dv4.x (latest version). It's also way cheaper even though ORBX is also on sale. For what it's worth, I also have GSX but I've never used it (it was on sale :-) )

Which CYVR version would you recommend, FSDT or ORBX?   Thank you.

Not to highjack the thread, but ...

I live in Greater Vancouver and pre-pandemic flew in and out of CYVR regularly on business. FSimStudios CYVR (ORBX) is much better than FSDT CYVR: more up to date and overall a better representation of the airport and surroundings. The former also includes updates of buildings in downtown Vancouver (FSDT CYVR doesn't), including BC Place Stadium.

Appreciate the info. I decided to try out FSDT CYVR because it's so much cheaper than ORBX's version AND I figured they also have KLAX and KLAS (McCarran Las Vegas) on sale and I already have GSX.

Are you familiar with FSDT's KLAX and KLAS?  Are there better alternatives? I'm wondering if KLAS overlaps ORBX's Boulder airport (61B).

I coudn't believe that I picked up DFW for less than 8 Euros!!

 

Its old but for P3D there's no better version out there as far as I am aware and it still holds it own.
