    Couldn't you get some "correct" information about this airport?

     

    I would say the official trailer means LKPR is close to release and the upcoming page has innocently been forgot, I wouldn't read into the page not being updated.

    On the Orbx side, this matter "stopped time" ....
    Is there any reason we customers might know ...?

     

    I would say to give Orbx a bit of slack, it is Christmas and New Year and I would say most of the staff and currently having a deserved break and will probably return this week and we'll probably hear news soon

  2. This is the same for me, did you install your addons straight into your community folder and then copy paste them out into another folder for addon linker? But however you did it they are installed. If you go into addon linker and ‘turn on’ all your scenery, then they’ll turn green in Orbx (providing you restarted Central) and then you’ll be able to check for updates

  3. Well said John, it's no secret I love MSFS, for me it's the best sim I've owned (I've had every MS and LM sims and version since FS2002, bar v5), once I return to real life flying (GA) I will probably use MSFS as a training platform before flights, something that can be done better than in other sims because of the scenery.

     

    This plays into what do you look for in a sim, for me, yes the aircraft are the main thing, I am really looking forward to PMDG, A2A, Fenix, etc in MSFS, but the scenery is a massive part as well, and any other thing that can complete the immersion of 'being an airline pilot', something that unfortunately I can't do in real life due to a disability. So simulating it is the next best thing.

     

    Yes MSFS brought a lot of 'gamers' into the community and even ex-simmers back. The community needed that, Robert from PMDG recently said how the FS community was in steady decline even before MSFS was a thing, whether people like it or not MSFS breathed life back into the community, and the 'gamers' that joined, even if 5-10% of them stayed and kept using to become 'serious simmers', that's good, I don't think I have ever seen the level of interaction/new 3rd party devs etc as there is now.  

     

    There was 24,000 responses, I'd put a bet on the majority were simmers, how big is the likelihood that someone that bought the game to fly in a 'gamer' way will have heard of Orbx or an other outlet to be directed to the survey? For those who might be classed as gamers but have stumbled into the world of 3rd party, surely they are now classed a "beginner simmers" if they are looking to add to their sim.

     

    Finally W2DR, I don't think a section of the P3D crowd realise how many people who used P3D have switched to MSFS already or planning to once product A, B or C is available for MSFS, it's 2022 tomorrow (or maybe now) surely the community would be better if we didn't have the stupid, snobbish comments of you're not a simmer as you use MSFS

    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.  

    Couple of things, that's just a teaser, I meant the actual announcements found in, https://forum.orbxdirect.com/forum/7-Orbx-preview-announcements-screenshots-and-videos/

     

    Secondly I said generally not every time, for example ESSB was announced earlier in the dev cycle and LKPR has been on the upcoming page for a year or so

    That is of course true. I hope we will be pleasantly surprised as has been mentioned. Just the silence normally speaks volumes lol!

    I know what you mean, I would love it MSFS, yes it's been announced on the roadmap, but with Orbx generally only announcing products within a couple of weeks of release, I'm just guessing we're not in that timeframe yet :)

    End of the year almost and no sign of the Dublin landmarks city pack. No worries if it is delayed but considering it was listed as being on the roadmap for this year, it would be great if Orbx could provide an update on such products unlikely to be released in 2021.

     

    It was listed but also the roadmap says this "we reserve the right to modify the list and the sequence", which is evident by a lot of releases that weren't on the roadmap, I'm sure more landmark packs will be seen in 2022

    This post has over 12,000 views.  Compare that to all the other posts since April 20.  Not even close.

     

    This fact should make it crystal clear just how much interest there is in openLC Asia.

     

    Dave

     

    But how many are unique viewers and are still interested in the product because of various reasons ;) 

     

    (ps this is a lighthearted jokey comment, let's not create WW3, there's of course still some interest )

  8. A quick follow on, I decided to do the return from SIN-BNE, with exactly the same addons, and the stutters were severe whilst doing the setup and taxing around, on the takeoff roll the stutters became very severe, probably down to 1-2 fps, 5-10 second freezes, to the point it was unflyable and and had to close the sim, following what was said in the OP, I disabled Singapore landmarks and reloaded the flight, did the same, departed on the same runway/SID and it was extremely smooth and had no issues, I guess therefore there's some sort of incompatibility between Orbx Singapore Landmarks and Cloudsurf Asia WSSS, or at least of my machine?

  9. Hi @John Dow to add to this thread, I am having the same issues, doing a flight from YBBN-WSSS,

     

    My community folder consisted of,

    Orbx YBBN

    Orbx Brisbane/Singapore Landmarks

    Cloudsurf Asia's WSSS

    All the global seafront products

    FBW A32NX (with the Comlux livery)

    AIG AI Traffic

     

    My sim runs smooth at other Orbx and non-Orbx airports (for example FT's YSSY and Orbx Cityscape, with AIG/Seafront/FBW) but at YBBN/WSSS the stuttering was bad sometimes resulting in 20-30 second freezes and this is after quite steep graphical reductions for example the LOD was reduced from 400-250,

     

    Thanks

    See, no patience at all. I want it now and expect now.

    Well done misinterpreting a post, all I was asking is if this product is going to come to central, as not all not all parter products come to central, and it’s my preferred place of purchase.

     

    I made no reference to timescale, so don’t get how I am impatient? And that there are quite a few posts on this forum asking is x product coming, but yet you only reply to me, and send me an unnecessary rude private message saying I am impatient and whining when I asked a question politely. 

     

    This coupled with your angry post yesterday about people asking about the throwback line of products, sounds like you have some issues taking them out on a flight sim forum

    Everybody wants something for free or as cheap as they can get it, this whole thread is full of nothing but complainers, get over it !!!!

    Just my opinion, but this whole d**n website is getting harder and harder to want to visit anymore!!

    I really can't see any complainers in this thread, nor anyone asking for cheap or free products, just people asking if about more airports under this branding. I don't get your negativity.
