November 16, 20232 yr ORBX should really publish a list of the landmarks on their website for each release as I'm sure there will be a few in every release that will tempt more people to purchase. The kml files quoted are marked unavailable btw. Making them blend in better and less like new buildings would be a plus as well.

But I do agree a list would be good on the product page.

November 16, 20232 yr These three packages are top of my wanted list now that I have Microsoft Flight Simulator installed. I was going to ask if there is a conflict with the ORBx Landmarks London City package, but I guess that this is an unknown at the moment?

No conflicts that I can tell, but impossible to pass final judgment without MSFS' data streaming connection back up and working. 1 hour ago, St Mawgan said: Yes, it's not bad but I'm hoping this will be better. No, it's not a 'hero POI'. 56 minutes ago, MarcG said: Yes unfortunately this is putting me off a purchase 30 minutes ago, cianpars said: Making them blend in better and less like new buildings would be a plus as well. People's expectations are way too high for £10. More than 700 POIs to turn weird-shaped autogen buildings into ones that look realistic from 1,000 feet is a bargain to me. The alternative is the slightly melted/not quite right shaped and blue-tinged look that the ripped freeware Google Map assets give you. Or nothing, because the freeware don't exist. I know what I prefer.

November 17, 20232 yr I would have been tempted twelve months ago - but with some of the negative comments from the ORBX forums and the release of 2024 its a firm no from me, imo its a lot of money to spend which will potentially be made redundant within the year. if however 2024 fails to deliver on expectations then maybe I'll reconsider a purchase at a likely reduced cost.

It's not accurate and some people got upset their favourite POI was listed, but not modelled. It is helpful if used as a guide as to what *may* be present.

November 17, 20232 yr Maybe they will add even more POI models in the future?

Sorry I meant the file had been removed from the orbx forum but someone posted it above so I’ve got it now. It Looks great and I can’t wait to get it on console. Are the Solent sea forts in the final version?
