I'm reading on Discord that some people are claiming that default buildings are showing through, even with the handcrafted version disabled. Can someone confirm this. 

Which Discord server you seeing that on?

I was really looking forward to this but will hold off for now. Just curious, what happens if you just leave PG on anyway? Does it make is impossible to taxi across bridges?

[B777ER 2,486]

Apparently he has come out and said on his Facebook page that a PG compatible version will be out “in some days” whatever that means. Comments on FB were a resounding, we aren’t buying it if we have to turn off PG. So it seems he is scrambling to get a PG version out asap. I will wait to see how this fleshes out.

What exactly happens with PG turned on? What bridges are we even talking about? Does KMCO have taxiways that run over bridges...?

It has taxiway bridges.

Southwest Virtual. Also some are asking on the Taxi2Gate Facebook Page. Apparently you have to leave the Asobo version enabled as he uses the hand-crafted scenery’s exclusion zones. So if I get this right, we're paying $25+ for a scenery that is using Asobo handcrafted objects? If we disable it then we get strange building effects. Seems like we're being charged for what we already have. 

T2G is actually replying on there Facebook page.

Good time to remind everyone here that this dev disappeared for 2+ years when P3D went 64bit and provided no support to customers during that time.

Pretty underwhelmed by this reentry into the MSFS ecosystem

I stand by my comment about T2G's efforts from earlier this year:
 

 

[regis9 4,014]

Turning off PG is a no go for sure, especially when there’s already a reasonable Asobo version available.

 

[sidfadc 1,344]

Rip off if you ask me.  I don't fly into it enough anyway and even if I did, way overpriced.  Not to mention turn PG off?  LOL I wouldn't care but most of the US is covered in good quality PG by default anyway so why the heck would we want to dilute the whole State of Florida or US (as a country) for one add on?

Yep, one of the biggest fails of a product release for MSFS to date.

I've had a bad experience with Taxigate KMCO product for FSX.

Poorly optimized, horrible OOMs, blurries trying to load the airport 15 miles out on approach.

Never again....

Once he has it fixed I will buy it because Its my home town airport and I fly allot in and out of MCO.

[Fiorentoni 4,234]

Yeah the price is outrageous, no way I get this outside of a sale, be it with PG on or off.

[Flying-Hare 218]

I don't understand the problem with bridges. I believe this can be easily fixed and bring back photogrammetry. I'm more interested in the quality and textures of the objects. In the event that the models are made at a high level, then the fair price will be $20.
