This looks super nice!

Congrats @Marcus Nyberg, well deserved!

Looks like a beauty Marcus! Can't wait to see it in sim.

Nicely done @RichardLouis!

Thanks for the update Marcus! Looking forward to Bromma.

Preparing to depart wet and windy Keflavik. ☂

Great shots! Particularly like the 8th one with the row of terraces in the foreground. Feels like a very Northern scene!

I'm no developer but I'd imagine if We Love VFR are able to do it, Orbx should be able to also. Nevertheless I'd rather keep the We Love VFR models as they are far higher quality than the Orbx pack. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

That's fair enough, thanks for helping anyway! Sorry for any confusion!

That is rather strange! They don't appear that way at all in the sim. Hopefully they are just bugged then? I'm still feeling quite underwhelmed to be honest. Me and a friend just did a flight around most of the major cities in Yorkshire and him and me both were really not that impressed. At least it does add some life to world though where there's only autogen.

Nick - please accept my apologies. It was another add-on. It was the We Love VFR add-on from flightsim.to. I did not realise it added in models like this. Please feel free to edit my original title/topic to amend to this effect if appropriate. Still, in the same vein, is there any way to remove things like this some landmarks so we don't this clash? Obviously the other add-on models are far greater in quality so I'd prefer to use those if possible. Please see my comment above @Seanmo. To be clear, I incorrectly pointed out the models were Asobo's. However, conversely this might even be a more laughable situation with the creator being a single person freeware developer, who's add-on has been out since even Oct 2020!

Hi, I noticed there are some locations covered by the GB Central pack that have also been done by Asobo. Is there a way to disable these locations and just allow the Asobo ones? For example here at RAF Menwith Hill: The Orbx models not only are extremely poor but also in the wrong place. I imagine this is probably not the only location. As a side note - a bit of feedback I'd like to give to Orbx is that overall, having explored a small portion of the pack, I feel quite underwhelmed by the quality of modelling. This is only highlighted even further by the picture above. Appreciate the price of the pack is very reasonable for the quantity of content and for that reason it seems somewhat acceptable but considering Asobo are covering what looks like a similar number of landmarks in their world updates, which also include airports at a payware quality, for no cost, I feel Orbx somewhat need to up their game. Also compared even to other Orbx city packs I feel this falls down a bit in the quality department, to a degree. I have also mentioned in another thread too, another thing I would have like to have seen is a landmark 'tag' added to some (or all) of the locations. Useful for finding not only in the world map but makes for great flybys, as the smart camera can easily lock on to locations tagged as a landmark and with this pack being touted for 'low and slow' flyers, I think this would make the experience even better. It is nice however to see more added to the North as we are somewhat lacking in photogrammetry and other additions up here.

Agree, seems like a solid job! Price point very surprising too. Just had a flight around the Leeds area. Personally, I'd like to see some or all of the buildings marked as 'landmarks' within the sim. Because they are not it means we are unable to use the smartcam to lock on to them when doing flying around or past, which I think is always very useful when doing some low and slow sightseeing.

@Puukka Did you try this button: @Nick CooperThere does not appear to be any improvement as of this update:

Just to add to this I can confirm ESMS is offset for me also. Also attached is ESGG for reference. I learnt from a developer that loading my scenery library into LittleNavMap and viewing the ILS beams there is an easy way to see if they are aligned correctly without having to setup an approach.

It seems we have to wait and see if the July 29th update fixes things.

Hi Herbert, I wouldn't say with all Orbx sceneries. Going back to my original post, I had tested the localiser at ESGG with both the Navigraph data installed and not and still had the same results with the Orbx scenery. I have not had a chance to ESMS without the NG data yet.

Might be worth a try. Yes it was the default 172. Rob

Localiser is spot on for me in the default scenery. ESMS - ILS 17. This is with Orbx ESMS installed: Strange how your results are completely different to mine @Puukka. I notice you have Navigraph navdata also. I've tried the default scenery with both the navdata installed and not - both are fine and aligned with the runway. Are you completely up to date on that? Also using Navdata centre to install/uninstall each time? I used to have some strange results when manually moving the folder from time to time.

Seems it's both Marcus's products that are affected. Massive shame because they are absolutely beautiful! Likewise. I guess we wait until the next update.

Hey @Nick Cooper Just an update. Don't know if the expectation for this to be fixed in this update, however, this issue does not appear fixed since the latest update. Thanks, Rob

I wasn’t saying you personally, I perhaps wrongly assumed there may be more communication there between someone who is responsible for maintaining your products and Asobo. I get what you’re saying completely. It becomes confusing as a consumer whereby one developer says one thing and another says another! Hopefully Asobo can get us all on the same level soon. Thanks, Rob

Likewise, another one I'd reported is in process of being fixed by the developer (and that was a freeware by by a major publisher). I have to say it's a bit of a shame this is the stance Orbx are taking. Could I suggest it may be more productive to speak with your partners at Asobo and see if this is a mistake or a lasting change? I'd imagine it would be quite disappointing a new customer purchasing this scenery and finding a widely used approach aid is degraded from the default. Thanks, Rob

So we just have to wait it out on the premise that another Asobo update might sort the issue?
