    QQ about the coming NZ world update

    Hi There,

    To add on to Holger's previous post, we have temporarily removed the NZ Mesh from sale on OrbxDirect and the Microsoft Marketplace. Customers who already have purchased the scenery will still be able to access the product to install/reinstall, however, it is recommended that users disable the NZ mesh for the time being if it is causing conflicts with WU12.

     

    We will still welcome feedback from existing users on their NZ Mesh experience with the update. As it's a sizeable area to assess for pros and cons, this will be valuable to us and help us determine future plans for NZ Mesh.


    Yes I have uninstalled the NZ Mesh from MSFS as when I had it running alongside WU12 scenery, it was creating a rippling circle of lower terrain around my aircraft when flying at low level and was rather distracting.

     

    I have also noticed the 150km2 D’Urville Island in the Marlborough Sounds is missing from the NZWU 12 scenery. This was an issue that was originally noted with the Orbx NZ Mesh upon its initial release but later fixed with a patch.

     

    It would be great to have an update from Orbx as to progress on with making the NZ Mesh compatible with WU12 so those of us who purchased it can use the terrain data locally on our hard drives rather than having to stream it online.

     

    Really hoping the Orbx Auckland City landmarks will be updated to blend the great city buildings with the new photogrammetry, add back the boats in the city’s various marinas and add the Orbx watermask into Waitamata harbour back into the sim.

    I have just updated the Orbx PAC750XL to V1.0.1 in Orbx Central but now none of the digital gauges appear to have any power to them.

    Am I missing something obvious, or this is a major bug that has slipped through?

    Have tried multiple variants on cold and dark starts as well as loading into the sim with engine running to no avail.

     

    Cheers

    Repeat CTD after latest purchases

    Hi guys,

     

    I took advantage of the 73.7 discount on the Orbx store today and purchased and installed Santa Barbara, Cityscape Sydney and Flytampa's YSSY.

     

    After installing them all, I started up the sim and it crashed to desktop part way through the loading bar screen. I restarted my system, tried again several more times, but had the same issue.

    I jumped into Orbx central to see if I could see any error messages and realised I had purchased and installed these three addons under a different account (using my personal email address as opposed to my work email address where all my other Orbx installs are). Would this conflict be causing the CTD's?

    As an aside, I am able to boot into the sim without any trouble in 'safe mode'.

     

    TIA

    Loverly sequence and great pics bernd1151. I noticed you have a double up of runway centreline markings at NZMF which commonly happens if you have both blinn's incredible freeware Milford Sound Airport installed alongside the Orbx Mesh. Have a look for a folder called "z_default-nzmf" within your Community Folder and remove it to clear the conflict ;)

    Thanks for the screenshot comments fellas!

     

    Here's a few more shots departing from MK Studio's Lisbon, on my next flight down to Tenerife.

    I like to tell a narrative from start to finish when sharing my virtual flights, so typically post full sequences with a bit of a back story over on the MSFS forums where I am not bound by such stringent posting requirements... For the 'non Orbx' portion of both flights, see All TAP'ed Out and Did I just find the worlds most scenic holding pattern? ;)

    TAP 1339 - Lisbon Arrival

    Having enjoyed a few VFR flights around Portugal recently, I wanted to see if there were any further scenery enhancements available for the region and stumbled across MK Studio's Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport in Orbx Central which has just been updated to work seamlessly with the Iberia World Update VIII.

     

    This morning I took the Flybywire A3NX from my European home base of London Gatwick to the Portuguese capital as TAP 1339 via the following route: IMVU1Z IMVUR N63 SAM M195 LORKU KORUL ASPOR XAMAX XAMA7D

     

    The real world weather forecast at Lisbon was for thick fog today, clearing at some stage between 0900 and 1100 UTC. With my arrival scheduled for 1000 UTC, I was anxiously checking the METARs en route, and had a hold programmed in on the STAR should I need it. Thankfully the cloud base had lifted by the time I got there and I was able to enjoy the Lisbon photogrammetry scenery on my final approach for runway 21:
