Taxi2gate LFPG release

Recommended Posts

Don't know how I feel about this one.
Happy to see P3D still receiving new products and/or updates, especially the large airports.

Yet, T2G are charging €18 (incl. tax) for the update from their old LFPG.
FlyTampa's YSSY (or indeed EKCH) also included PBR textures everywhere and gave significant updates, all for $15.58 (incl. tax), which is around €10.80.
For 60% of the cost of this T2G update, FT's updates seem to be the far better value-for-money offering.

this update work's like I dream on my system ( 9700k,1080ti, 32 ram , nvme 's plus ssd's bla bla bla ), yes agreed not cheap update but taxi2gate are a premier dev ( in my opinion ) and so far its like butter , but that's  just me , iam still on 1080p and I don't have crazy settings , I guess its up to you . for me having a major European hub airport gives me choices with FSlabs 😉

Yeah, because its pretty easy for a two guys project liek Taxi2Gate to test every small tiny thing  of an huge airport like LFPG or paying a whole BETA team which still won't find all problems.  

people would beta it for free, hell they are paying to beta testing it. 

Let me remind you,  a handfull of people just found the sode issues in less than 3 hours after release, same as when aerosoft release a scenery with an incorrect ils freq.  sorry Joe its just sloppiness and a need to get to market to make some bucks.

let us also not forget it wasnt a new release it was a scrub up of an exisiting scenery. 

as mentioned before ill bang on and on until these delevlopers stop releasing unfinished scenery with bugs and glitches like this and take some pride in their work (like a vrey few other developers)     

Again, less than 3 hours.  Sloppiness. Sorry but Its as simple as that.

Not really impressed, installed the update previously had the other scenery which I uninstalled prior. Below is what I'm seeing, and my scenery library index.

I love all the people coming on here whining and nitpicking this release. Did you all forget we hardly get any P3D scenery anymore, like close to zero releases? Yet when one comes out, a major one at that,  you all can't help but focus on the negatives.  The price of one lunch is what it costs yet some in here acting like they have to take out a bloody bank loan. Be grateful T2G is still giving us stuff for what many developers consider a dead platform. If you want to nitpick it to death,  go find mirror to talk to because that is the only person you will find cares.

What a rubbish take.
The suggestion boils down to accepting products in any unfinished/sloppy state just because we don't get that many in P3D any more.

Well, P3D has the following add-ons in the pipeline:

  • Flightbeam: NZAA and LFBO
  • MK-Studios: LIRF, LPPD, GCFV (v2), EFRO, GVSV, LPPR, EICK and EKVG (v2)
  • Orbx: KBOI, KPBI, LDSP, LKPR, ENTO, KVNY, YMEN (v2), ESSB and even another TrueEarth product.

And a lot of these will be to a higher standard than T2G's latest efforts.

Eric , do you like a  Mcdonalds once in a while ??  if so what would you do if you kept getting given cold fries ?

Ill telll you the reason I ask,  Once in a blue moon (because im not a huge fan of burgers) ill go to Mcdonalds and treat myself to a burger and fries.  

Now mcdonalds has a habit of this, (as they employee 16 year olds who dont give a toss about the food or the job, they just want the money.)   So when the food comes, if the fries are cold or the burger has just been thrown in the box / paper and looks like junk,  it goes straight back and I ask for another one, I dont mess about.  I worked for that burger, they have taken my money, I expect a certain level of service and standard that if I dont get it I  ask to see the manager.  

Do I sound like an word not allowed.  definatley, but dont do the job if you cant or wont provide a certain standard.  we dont accept sloppiness where I work, so why should I have to accept cold fries from mcdonalds or half baked unchecked stuff from Aerosoft, Orbx or Taxi2gate.  Its no different to cold fries from Mcdonalds.

All I want is some fresh hot fries and a half decent burger) im not asking for the best burger and fries in the world, I just want an acceptable standard of work, and that means a quick check of your work to see if the sode jettys line up or a 2 min check to see if you have copy and pasted the afcad frequency is correct (aerosoft numerous times)  or a quick load up at night to see the dynamic lighting brings your system to 15 fps (orbx)     

Now wether that maybe some £5 burger and Fries, (or a $18 for a updated scenery)  The Issue is I can ask for the manager in Mcdonalds and get some decent service/standard,  but once youve given taxi2gate/aerosoft/orbx that $18 its gone you cant get your money back.  Youre stuck with the cold fries in essence.

Honestly such a stupid comment. If you pay for a product you pay for a functional one, take a look at my screenshot.

 

Be happy with a non-functioning product? What era do you live in?

I have this same issue.  Using FTX Global and Orbx Open LC Europe.  I tried rearranging the layers but no luck so far.  I am also missing terminal K even though the jet bridges are there. Since their forum is down I did a google search and it would appear they had similar issues in older versions but I haven't been able to figure it out yet.  I never had these issues in P3dv4.  I may try the inibuilds exclude file to see if that makes any difference.  If you find a solution please let us know and I will do the same!  WIth that said what is working looks great.

I'm the same here, I found an email and sent off the issue so hopefully I hear back, should I, I will communicate it here.

Yep, set it to FTX in the config program and the result was as shown seems an error on their side.

Looks very good  at daytime, but the night lighting looks like FSX. Just dull, no dynamic lights.

The new one?  Is this correct...no dynamic lighting??
