  1. Just did a fly over with Melbourne Landmarks active and Flemington Racecourse must be too far out from city centre since I am only seeing Asobo photogrammetry.

  6. Marcus, I am just blown away by the beautiful job you have done on ESSB! Not only is the ESSB airport and nearby area fabulous, Stockholm city centre is also stunningly improved with many, many POIs, terrain improvements and so on. Absolutely unbelievable! Thank you for your incredible dedication and artistry! Great job! Rod

  12. That is very cool! Thanks for taking the extra time to put in the light rail/tram animation. The carriage/tram itself looks great! Rod
  13. Let's see, the topic is Concerned About Direction Orbx is Heading. I, for one, am not concerned about Orbx's direction. I was, at first, when Orbx started growing their list of 3rd party partners. After buying almost all Orbx in-house developed products I was concerned about Orbx's future quality, support, etc. I imagine working with more 3rd parties was a tough decision for Orbx too! However, I find that I am pretty happy and look forward to a continuing future with Orbx. Microsoft Flight Simulator has only been out for a year but I already have over 30 scenery products purchased from Orbx Direct. I like them all. Sure some of them are not built in-house, but I know that Orbx has done their quality due diligence on the 3rd parties that they have partnered with, I have purchased them all using Orbx Direct, the 3rd party products are installed via Orbx Central (which is a great tool) and my updates, as required, have come through automatically. I just checked and it looks to me like Orbx has over a 100 scenery (airport and landmark) products available right now for Micrsoft Flight Simulator including 3rd party products. That is pretty impressive when dealing with a new/complex simulator that has only been out for 1 year with an incomplete SDK featuring updates every few months that might break a developer's existing scenery's operation . And now I am able to get some of my favorite P3D Orbx sceneries for Microsoft Flight Simulator like 1WA6 at almost no cost ($3.21) due to Orbx's Throwback Classic program. Yes, the product description should probably be clearer about the content being a simple port of the P3D version and when I click on the OrbxDirect ad for Throwback Thursday it only shows me the latest throwback product even though I would prefer it show me all the Throwback products since I may have missed a Thursday or two.... but that is a minor nit that could be easily changed. Looking ahead, the upcoming Orbx product I am currently following is Stockholm Bromma airport. The many pics posted by the Orbx in-house developer, Marcus Nyberg, are demonstrating to me that this will be another fine, high-quality, Orbx in-house product. Now I have to go check out Pilot Plus's EGGD Bristol International Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator which is now out and looks to be another high-quality airport easily available to me thanks to Orbx's 3rd party partnering program. So, as I said at the beginning, I am not concerned about Orbx's direction and the future looks bright...but that's me. Rod
