    My 2c worth... imagine if you asked your local supermarket to put all the specials in one aisle so you didn't need to walk past the normal priced produce to find things on special. 

     

    What do you think the reaction would be? 

    Not the best analogy as supermarkets would have to physically move stock and so would rightly tell you to do one! This is a few lines of code that would allow sorting of sale items, and would only need to be written once.
    Orbx's reaction as Nick has said twice now is "we'll consider it" which is all we can ask for


    I do find it strange that some people appear to be against something which wouldn't affect them in the slightest but would benefit others...bizarre

    Hello Brian,

    I stand corrected, operator error.

    However, there are still 1173 airports and even when I ask to see those I don't
    own, there are 1097 to choose from.
    My point, I think, is that where there is a huge number of items on sale, there will
    always be a huge search required, unless a few choices are made before the search begins.
     

    Nevertheless, as I wrote earlier, all suggestions will be considered.

     Hey we've all been there Nick 😂 can't see the wood for the trees and I think that's really the OP's point. At the end of the day Orbx will do what Orbx feel is right for them addng functionality would only improve the process and as you said Orbx will consider it ands that's all we can ask. 
    If people don't want to use the addiitonal functionality that's fine, it's just a filter.

    If changes are made , the marketplace on MSFS is the way to go . So much easier to find sale items ........ 🤔🙂

    Problem with marketplace is it is slow to update products asobo/MS approval before makinig updates available takes far too long.
    But I agree finding sale items is much easier.

    Just figured out the change myself!

    I usually check the forum every morning on my laptop and hadn't been getting through, so I thought there must be a problem or upgrade going on.

    The forum link at the bottom of the Orbx home page (orbxdirct.com) is still linked to the "old" forum address.

    yup thats the same as me. I even did a "is the site down" search and got back a message to say it was down for everyone.....
    Apparently some of us didn't get the memo, does seem odd that they would basically change the url for the forum and not tell anyone.

  5. For the past few days I've been unable to access the forum using the link I've used for ages https://orbxsystems.com/forum. I then found the Orbx discord and followed a link that someone had posted to an issue they were having which brought me here https://forum.orbxdirect.com/. As you can see there is a subtle difference but enough that the original doesn't work. further to that the shortcut at the top of this very page also points to the old address.
    Clearly the site has moved...did I miss an announcement? is it permanent, temporary?

    My MSFSAddons folder - managed by Addons Linker - is 1.3GB. Expectedly, the sim just doesn't start when I have all addons active at the same time, at least not within 1/2 hr, and yes, I tried once.

    Michael, have you got your decimal point in the wrong place? I've got individual airports that are bigger than 1.3gb and a lower spec PC than yours and MY MSFS opens up with everything in about 5-7 mins if I leave everything enabled.
