April 10, 20233 yr Well, that's what he says at 4:10. It must be tiring placing object after object after object.... 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

April 10, 20233 yr I assume you are insinuating a slight exaggeration by the dev, and I tend to agree. On the other hand "WeLoveVFR" by Puffin are really good addons that contribute to realism in-sim! i7-6700k • Gigabyte GA-Z170X-UD5 • 32GB DDR4 2666 • EVGA FTW ULTRA RTX3080 12GB
April 10, 20233 yr I never said all objects are hand placed 😄 Some youtubers and news sites twist my words a little and it ends up a bit confusing. Many people are sure that my add-ons contain wind turbines, for example. I never stated that, but one news outlet made a mistake and now it's very common misconception. Even ChatGPT is sure We Love VFR has wind turbines 😄 Still, it's nice of them to feature my add-ons, so I don't complain. 150.000 objects in terms of Region 3 was a rough estimation. I don't really know the exact figures but it should be around that. Just antennas and chimneys are almost 80.000 and we have way over 50k yurts 😉 Most of these objects were placed based on data from OpenStreetMap and other sources combined. But there were A LOT of manually placed/verified objects. For example 2783 cooling towers were manually verified and set to look as close to real life as possible. Same with 2805 chimneys and 3094 antennas. Hundreds of construction sites near airports were verified and sometimes disabled if they were interfering with glideslope. Add to that ALL radar domes and ALL sat dishes and radio telescopes and you will get the final "hand-placed objects" count. Pretty sure it's over 10k. And that's just for the Region 3.
April 10, 20233 yr Regardless of how many objects were hand-placed, WeLoveVFR (all 3 regions) will always have a place in my community folder. Excellent work @PuffinFlight. Thank you for sharing it with us.
April 10, 20233 yr However many objects and whatever objects are included, welovevfr 1, 2 and 3 are the first thing that goes into my community folder and I can think of no reason why anybody would want to omit it. Try his fireworks addon too. That's fun, especially on New Years Eve.

April 10, 20233 yr My fav "We Love VFR" moment was flying North East from Key West over the Florida Keys, and suddenly spotting a TARS dirigible tethered approx 10,000 feet above Cudjoe Key.
April 11, 20233 yr Thanks for the heads-up. Looks great. Off to get it now. Cheers. Great places to fly in MSFS: https://youtube.com/channel/UCqCzobOlQLeGycCFnavVrPg
April 11, 20233 yr Probably my favourite MSFS add-on. Thanks for your hard work Richard - flying out of Australia Explore amazing places with FLIGHT SIM DISCOVERYCheck out my real life 'learn to fly' video series

April 12, 20233 yr Sounds great but perhaps mostly useful for low altitude flying. Is that essentially the case? I'm guessing the performance hit will be minimal, just a little longer load times?

As you say, performance hit minimal, and extra load times won't be much as the are only about 600MB fully unpacked. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

Awesome sounds like a no brainer. I'm hoping someone does shooting stars and aurora some time that would be fabulous too if well done!

I think that will probably be down to Asobo though. They said they want to do Aurora at least in a Twitch session quite a while ago. I would like the stars to be improved as well. They look like ugly blobs on my screen even at 4k. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

I've posted in the MSFS forum about the stars/planets during dawn/dusk looking like stars projected on a planetarium ceiling at low resolution. However as the night sky darkens deeply at altitude they can be quite impressive w/ some modest twinkling, a bit of color variation, much sharper, and at 3440x1440. Very nice I hope their comment comes to fruition Noel System: 9900X3D Noctua NH-D15 G2, MSI Pro 650-P WiFi, G.SKILL 64GB (2 x 32GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR5 6000, WD NVMe 2Tb x 1, Sabrent NVMe 2Tb x 1, RTX 4090 FE, Corsair RM1000W PSU, Win11 Home, LG Ultra Curved Gsync Ultimate 3440x1440, Phanteks Enthoo Pro Case, TCA Boeing Edition Yoke & TQ, Cessna Trim Wheel, RTSS Framerate Limiter w/ Front Edge Sync.

April 13, 20233 yr Has there been any news on getting (the excellent) we love VFR into the marketplace since their changes in testing etc? I read on the forums and discord about the issues regarding lack of communication from ms/asobo previously.
