From the 2022 roadmap thread,
It was never for XP-only P3D originally then MSFS as well

Still wondering about KPBI! It’s been on the list since 2020… Perhaps the the dev left or a drive failed or something. @Nick Cooperany update at all on this airport?

Hey Orbx! Any update on KPBI? Would love a detailed rendition of my home airport using SWA 737. Thank you!
Well they’ve done KCRW and now KBOI… Hopefully KPBI will be up next!

Hello,
thanks, your research is impeccable.
My knowledge of what has happened to the product since then is as good as yours.
That doesn’t make me feel warm and fuzzy but I’m glad it’s still on the list at least!

My reply refers to Terraflora, as I am sure that you are fully aware.
I can find no suggestion, either internally, externally or speculatively, other than your post,
that this developer was working on KPBI, nor do I see any beta testing yet.
1. Yes I’m aware it was about Terraflora.
2. Well Greg Jones has replied to topics on KPBI before, he was part of Turbulent/Orbx UK was he not?
3. So it was a bit of deductive reasoning…And
4. unless Mr. Correria lied to us, the P3D version was in getting into beta testing almost two years ago.
But I haven’t had my coffee yet so

Haha you and me both! All I want is an excellent rendition of it! I would of definitely crowd funded it as well! I wouldn’t mind doing that for the KFLL. The latinVFR one is bad.
Been waiting for KPBI (along with a few others of course) since March 6, 2020 when they first teased KSJC/KPBI. I’ll try and DM you the video I took at KPBI where I said I was gonna crowdfund it! But KFLL is fine! A little vram heavy but just fine, I make some adjustments to my settings when I go down there and/or turn off KMIA

I really hope its better then there best! It’s my home airport! KFLL was a major disappointment for MSFS.
When I was there, I was literally filming and preparing to release a video and then start a gofundme (with about $1000 of my own $$) to attempt buy the unfinished KPBI work off Orbx and get it to another developer to finish it
Just happy to see it’s still there. I’m hoping it’ll be ready soon™

Hi Luca and Team,
a suggestion:
I would like to have all of my screenshots displayed on the globe, as I am currently doing with an external app.
If I want to look at all of my screenshots, it is a bit tedious at the moment to have to open the individual flightsagain and again.
A general overview would be very good, with which one can continue to work. A kind of album function.
Kind regards
Mike

but with Orbx generally only announcing products within a couple of weeks of release

So much for the mold. It’s been a long long time coming. The P3D version almost HAS to have been close to done-they were supposedly both in beta at the same time it just didn’t make it out before FS2020 released like KSJC did.

In all fairness…..
…..a guess is just that, a GUESS. Maybe we’ll be pleasantly surprised. That’s my hope
Also, @RichUK Chewwy94 had apparently reached out re: KPBI and has not heard anything back (at least yet)

Yeah, I guess by the silence this one has probably been trashed. It is a real shame!
Have you been to KPBI before?
Plenty of times. Once a year since about 2014. It’s a gorgeous approach down the coast whether you’re landing West or East.
Hoping to be able to do this in the sim someday-the current one is an absolute mess. Still has 27R/09L signs on the ground and everything.

Sorry if I missed a reply to this, but would love to know if KPBI is still on the roadmap. I was there just today (local airport). I would love to see it in MSFS!
Happy New Year to you all.
Rich.
The P3D version was supposedly in beta well over a year ago, I’m guessing they either haven’t been able to get around to the MSFS version or have just binned it. I’m hoping we’ll be surprised. I’ll be there in a little over a month.

Since we are rapidly moving toward the end of the year... how are KBOI and KBPI coming along?
+1 KPBI must’ve been held up due to the MSFS version no? I mean it was in beta for P3D at the same time as KSJC and the renders showed quite a lot of work done! I swung down under while we’re waiting and picked up YMML, YBBN (holy vram hog!) and YSSY along with AU and NZ North Island. Having a blast down under for the time being, but still long for my fav airport.

@MawsonThe problem is that the attention span is very short lived in these days of gaming an unlike us old timers there is a need to keep the level of interest up otherwise the majority of people lose interest. At the moment MSFS is losing peoples interest because there is nothing apart from the A320 mod which is not enough to keep people coming back with actual real flights and unfortunately it needs something else. People love doing there fav flights and what they consist of is either an ATR, Boeing, Embraer or maybe a SAAB apart from the A32NX available. Hopefully we something new soon!
Scenery is not the issue but the simulator needs desperately some useable! commercial aircraft apart from the A320 mod and rather now than later if you know what I mean.
Tons of scenery but nothing to fly to it. Meanwhile, just today I flew the 744, A320 and 789 to some beautiful Orbx AU/NZ/SoCal scenery in P3D.

Looking forward to this update for sure!

KPBI (Palm Beach) & KCRW (Charleston, WV) were on the 2021 roadmap. Any updates on these? Have these been scrapped for now?
Thanks,
John
I’ll add on to the wondering about KPBI-last I remember @Greg Jones had said it was still coming-perhaps a bit delayed by the Orbx UK team doing needed work on other projects. I flew into KSJC yesterday which came out last august and was in development/beta at the same time as KPBI and was hoping for an update myself. IIRC-the renders they had were for PBI were quite far along and they were planning on it for both P3D and MSFS. It’s still 2021 for another month and change so hopefully it’ll still be coming along. KPBI would certainly be a good Christmas present-I’ll be flying there myself in January.
edit: Added Greg’s response from last year

Just took the NGXu for a spin at Orbx KBUR w/ true earth socal. Stutter city. I mean BAD.
I don’t have TE SoCal-only the NA region-cause it covers Vegas as well. It’s not too bad for me but the NGXu has been stuttering wherever I go-KDEN, KBWI-just doesn’t matter. It happened all of a sudden as well. I just wish they’d release KPBI to sit on top of my TE Florida where I get very decent performance.

I can confirm that this fix is not necessary with version 5.2. I tried with the without fullscreen optimization fix and without. Simply capping via Nvidia control pannel and leave the settings as is works very well. When the without fullscreen optimization option is enabled, it causes a lot of micro stutters. I tested these options at KLAX with NA SOCAL and full AI at 7am - just to give you an idea...
I wonder if this is the problem I’m having with the NGXu… I had it on in 5.1 and then 5.2 I started getting the mad stutters in just the NGXu. I also need to find the NA SoCal compatibility cause I have all addon airports and there’s some extra taxiway signs floating around

You won’t totally get rid of the orange-but try turning your saturation down a bit. That helped me. You can also try doing the Orbx configuration in central under your global product to change the lights up a bit.

It's on the 2021 roadmap and there's still 4 months left of 2021
I hope so my friend I hope so. It was in beta with SJC last summer then nothing for quite a while. Just hoping they don’t scrap it after all the work that’s already been done.
