Thanks Nick for coming back to us and all good 👍
Sad to read these news though 😔

Would you mind giving us the summary for those of us who don't use FB?

@B12 Thanks buddy!
I couldn't agree more with how the attitude both in here but also at some other places often isn't what you expect as a paying customer when communicating with the company you bought your products from. I'm not really sure why this is within the FS community and with a certain set of developers/publishers but it's been like this for as long as I can remember and I've been around for many years. Wouldn't fly in most other situations IRL, that's for sure. I work with customer success and satisfaction professionally.
@Nick Cooper We've had our encounters in the past with some nasty comments flying around every now and then and like B12 points out, they don't really go well with a professional company. If that is what Orbx like to be. Where you are representing Orbx when communicating with us in here. Looking at this specific example, surely I wouldn't have asked my question in here if I already saw the information you linked to.
With all this said, great again to hear how we'll all be able to buy EGNX also via Orbx down the road. The scenery truly looks stunning from what I've seen so far on YouTube etc 🙂

Didn't read that before so thanks for sharing.
So if I understood correctly, it will be available in here but with a short delay. That's great news!

I was happy to hear how Pyreegue the other day released their scenery for EGNX for MSFS which I was planning to buy.
Some time ago, I took the decision to only buy and use airport scenery products either from Orbx or Aerosoft. This after I got sick of the clutter on my PC using a myriad of installers from various publishers and developers.
In this case though, I was confident I would be able to find Pyreegue's newly released EGNX for MSFS after already having bought several of their other products in here in the past. Which is why I was puzzled when I realized this new and highly anticipated product isn't to to found in here.
What happened?
-
Got it, thanks guys.
In my case, I only have MSFS products installed which explains why I see this error message for all my products.

I have some 30+ airports and I've never seen anything but this when pressing the button

Great to see we focus on those really important things 😉

I'm using both with no issues. So the issue must be caused by something else.

Got it, many thanks Marcus!
As said, will play around and try to find the best balance between performance and visuals 👍

Thank you Richard, makes my day to hear that.
Also on the patch list (something I know you care about) is the planespotting spot at runway 26 that I didn't include in the initial release
Yes, you really managed to catch the correct "feeling". So cool being able to enjoy Arlanda virtually like this 🙂
As for the plane spotting place next to runway 26, I'm actually not sure if that one is still accessible or if it even exists anymore. Due to lots of construction work. You might want to double check that before spending time. I will check myself more carefully next time I'm there.

We've seen that the animated traffic option brought our testers 5-8 extra FPS when disabling that as well as reduced stutters on approach. From other testing on other projects I was informed the VDGS system is also 7-8 FPS so might make that optional as well. Would mean you need to be in outside view for alignment to jetway, but might be worth it to some users.
Otherwise clutter is probably the most demanding of the other options.
As for the GSX profile we are working on a upgraded one that contains more features people expect from the profile that we will release in a patch.
Thanks, will play around with the options a bit. Would be great with a brief explanation what exactly the different options do. For instance, what the difference is between animated traffic and cars. Guessing cars are the parked and static ones?
About clutter, could you provide a few examples what is included with that option?
So if I understand you correctly, animated traffic has the biggest impact on performance where clutter comes on a second place?
-
About the various scenery options available, which would you say are the most demanding?
I rarely see performance issues but when I flew into ESSA tonight, it wasn't exactly as smooth as I'm used to. So figured maybe I should try disabling some of those scenery options for next flight to see what impact it will have on the performance.
Tried to find some documentation for the scenery but couldn't find anything. I both tried the User Guide option for ESSA in Orbx Central and also looked manually in the installation folder. Was very happy to find a GSX profile in there though 🙂

Just flew into "your" Arlanda Marcus for the first time. Finally was able to get some time to fly!
Can't even begin to describe how great it was to be able to fly to what is my "home airport" just like it is for you. And enjoy not only the airport itself but also to recognize all the places just outside the airport where I've been more times than I can count. Doing plane spotting and just enjoying the atmosphere out there.
Absolutely amazing work Marcus, felt like being there for real!!

In addition to the great news this highly anticipated airport has now been released, I again want to salute the always so friendly and transparent approach (no pun intended) from Marcus side.
10 out of 10 for that Marcus 👍

Wow, so much looking forward to fly into Arlanda later today!!
Also want to add, what a perfect timing to release it just in time for the weekend when many of us have some more time to fly.
Thanks Marcus and the rest of your team for all the hard work and effort to make this happen!

Must be one of the best looking airports I ever seen in any flightsim 👌

Was just about to say the same thing but realized I'm starting to sound like a broken record 😂
It will be so awesome having ESSA in this kind of detail in MSFS!!

Just tried to recreate the issue using the drone cam to "travel" to the approx same position I was yesterday when I saw this issue but today, it all looked fine. Maybe that was because the starting point was at the airfield. Where all nearby terrain textures had already loaded correctly.
Will leave it for now but will keep what you said in mind should I see the same issue again going forward.
Thanks for your help Angelo!

Thanks, will give that a try and I realized I wrote I rather than it but evidently I'm still here 🙂

Tonight when I was on the RNAVZ approach into RW17, I had this big white square just west of the airfield as seen in the screenshot below. Once I got closer, I disappeared piece by piece and when on short final and after landing, it was completely gone.
Can't recall seeing this before when I've flown into ESMS and was wondering if this could be a scenery issue or if it's more likely a MSFS issue.
Anyone else seen the same thing?
-
You little teaser 😉
Looks absolutely stunning!

Learned the ground clutter in GSX Pro doesn't include trucks. Also noticed now when looking closer at your screenshot Nick how you have the same truck. Only that it's not pink and happy to report, looks good over here as well today. So must have been some temp issue loading the texture for that truck when I flew into Corfu yesterday.

Thanks Nick, thinking if that truck maybe is part of the "ground clutter" which comes with GSX Pro.
Will ask the same thing over in their forum.

Moving around in drone view around LDSP after WU 14 tells me I'm crashed into an object
in Microsoft Flight Simulator
Posted
Earlier today, I flew into LDSP before having installed WU 14. After I landed, I explored the surroundings in drone view with no issues. Now when doing the same thing after I installed WU 14, I keep crashing like I would fly into an invisible wall.
Will try to uninstall LDSP and see if that will make any difference. To rule out it's some kind of conflict with Orbx LDSP and WU 14.
Anyone else seen the same thing?
