Sorry to revive this thread, please feel free to delete my post. I eventually had a look at trying to "edit" the scenery to add runway 10L-28R. Unless I am missing something obvious, there seems to be an issue with the scenery's original base satellite files (ground polygon?) and asphalt/concrete textures files that appear on top of standard P3D runway and taxiway textures. It is easy enough to edit the AFCAD file, but it is of not much use because runway 28R sits below the above mentioned various textures. So basically, it looks a mess! Also, there are taxiway signs, stop bars and other various other objects which sit right in the middle of the runway or the adjacent taxiway. So unless you remove a lot of the original files and "corrupt" the look of the original scenery, then editing the AFCAD does not seem to help that much (as far as I can tell).

I had issues with trees on taxiways, dirt effect on aprons and taxiways, ILS DME bug, AFCAD and layout issues..... I fixed them all myself, which proves that the problems come from the scenery, not my PC or my setup. However, if I had listened to support, I would have uninstalled and reinstalled the scenery "50" times, maybe do the same with P3D and change my PC for good measure. None of that was necessary. Just the files which are "buggy" and need corrected. That is where I have a problem! I should not be misled to believe there is a problem on my side when it is ABSOLUTELY not the case. I am not here to badmouth the scenery, but to share my feedback. As I said on my last post, there are some nice things too, and now that I fixed the bugs, I am looking forward to enjoying the scenery.

Sorry to reactivate this thread... I said I would give my feedback, but I could not do it since I was "in discussion" with support. All in all, I am hugely disappointed with this scenery and I would not recommend it. Fair enough, the various terminals, etc...are looking fine, but the scenery is full of bugs. It is not worth the 26 GBP. Like always, the developer tries to b*llsh*t and put the blame on the customer, even when you tell them there is definitely a problem from their side (I know a thing or two about sceneries). The customer is not a beta tester... I guess that's the way things are nowadays. Buyer beware.

I use P3D as well and I am more than happy with it. It works generally well, and I like how realistic it feels... I have also invested a decent amount of $ in terms of aircraft and scenery...so I feel like I can't just move on from P3D. My only "problem" is that there are only a few developers left/there are no more updates. P3D will become more and more outdated as we go along... Overall, P3D suits me fine.

I took the plunge and purchased it. I will let you know what I think.🫡

Never any promo with these guys. A lot of devs offer discounts, if only for black friday or X-Mas. I have been monitoring the price in a long time and no change. A bit expensive indeed...is it worth it? Some people have mentioned the layout isn't even correct...?

I am a strong supporter (and user) of P3Dv5 and I have never really used MSFS. However, if I was starting fresh in flight simulation now, I would probably go for MSFS 2024. Why? Simply because P3D is slowly, but surely, becoming outdated. All the updates/development are going into MSFS. The future is not with P3D unfortunately.

It is runway 34. The scenery is for earlier versions of P3D so it needs tweaked for v5. I kind of "reinstalled" it, did a couple of tweaks and it seems to be working OK now. What is strange is I did not touch anything in the glideslope properties. Another mystery solved🤣 Thanks for the replies.

Hello, I came across something strange with the KRIC scenery you can find in the AVSIM library. The ILS glideslope positions the aircraft high on the approach vertical profile with 4 whites and, eventually, high over the threshold. Normally you cross the threshold at about 50 feet, but in this case, I would say the aircraft is at 100~150ft. From there, it becomes impossible to do an autoland, for example. Have you ever come across a problem like this within P3D, or finding the same issue with this particular scenery? (the airport AFCAD looks correct, but I might be missing something obvious). Thanks.

Reviews from other sceneries from the same developer. Anyway...if the AFCAD needs "updated" already, it is not a good sign.

This is really bad from the developer. Mind you, I am not surprised....some reviews on Simmarket are not good. It should be very easy and quick to create an AFCAD with correct alignment, etc...for an airport like KGRB. It is the basis of any airport scenery.

I have messaged you.

Hi Dave, How do you access your signature/website please? I can't seem to work it out. Thanks

I agree. Given that even PMDG themselves have closed their P3D shop now, having to pay USD 100+ for a P3D addon PMDG don't care about anymore is (to remain courteous) not something I would do. As for developers keeping P3D addon prices high when demand is so low, I don't get it....

Why are PMDG not communicating about the closure of their P3D shop? Simply because they don't care, and they can afford not to care... They are commercially very successful with their MSFS products. This probably makes them very confident, possibly arrogant about not caring for P3D anymore. As some people said, it is the last nail in the P3D coffin and I suspect PMDG are probably happy about it. I don't agree with that attitude, to say the least. As I said above, I find it arrogant and nasty. I guess what I think, or what some of you on this forum think, does not matter to them when there are hundreds of people who support them regardless. That's who and what PMDG are, and nobody here will change that unfortunately. Asking for an explanation is futile...
