Hi
Just wondering if it all worked for you?
If so I will download in the morning and try.
Thanks.

Hi
Can anyone tell me what their UserCfg.opt file details are, mine are as follows:
Date Modified: 25/08/2021 20:51 and Size is 4kb.
I manually altered several settings post SU5 update and have been very impressed with my settings. However, I never put the old one back prior to SU6 update and today’s Hotfix and I’m wondering if it has changed
Thank in advance

I haven't remarked any negative influence on FPS, not monitored but flight was even fluent as over other add-on sceneries.
Thanks for the feedback, that’s good to know. NYC is very fluid, I don’t look at FPS just measure it by how fluid it all runs.
Looks like everything runs well for you.

I purchased NYC and was most impressed with SamScene Scenery (my first purchase from them). Your Hong Kong shots look sensational think I may look to purchase Hong Kong next what’s it like on FPS?

Thanks Nick I’m sure I read on these forums before that Orbx were wanting them to be offered free but somehow had to link our central purchases to marketplace in Xbox.
Im sure you know people in high places at Orbx who you can ask. As a Yorkshire man like yourself we don’t want to be spending our brass twice here do we?

Hi
I see Orbx London in the Xbox marketplace.
I use same username / account for Xbox as I do on my PC. I bought London via Central for PC. I thought once released for Xbox, if using same account it would be for free? Xbox marketplace wants to charge me again for it.
Can anyone advise please?
Thanks in advance.

I wonder if an update may be given. I still don’t see any of my Orbx PC purchases (via Orbx Central) appear on Marketplace to download for the Xbox version of MSFS.
Apologies if this question has been asked else where, I couldn’t find during a search.
Thanks in advance.

Well done Richard - Great Shot

Turn off this turn off that what is the point you should not have to do that if the sim was built right in the first place
As Nick quoted above, it’s a personal choice and I wanted to provide an update of my experiences to help others.

Since I started this thread elsewhere and commented here - I feel that I must comment further - and agreeing with what Nick said
When asked the question sometime ago - Anna made it clear - the intentions of Orbx were to somehow integrate our current P.C. purchases
for those of us who intended to go to X Box Series X sometime in the future.
Every man and his dog on this forum should know by now that I am a big fan of X box - and every intention of doing most of my flight simming
via the console - with the exception of certain uses of P3D and X Plane that MS2020 cannot give me - and only needs my mid range PC to enjoy.
particularly my huge aircraft hangar of older type aircraft
Being the impatient bloke I am - and I can't get my hands on a console - due to the shortages - I have purchased quite a number of Orbx scenery
and Just Flight aircraft - because of the simple fact that I have been purchasing "stuff" from both these companies for in excess of 15 years - and they
have never let me down - so I trust them.
What has become fairly obvious since last August - is that Orbx and other major developers have made 2020 what it is today - and the size of peoples
Community Files - further indicates the reliance - of the future of the sim - on said developers and cadre of free developers
Now we have an X Box version at last - BUT - and it is a big BUT - does the X box version - include all the multitude of these scenery -etc- addons
used in the PC - EG. the Orbx Cityscapes - Airports - the aircrafts from Aerosoft - Miviz - Flying Iron - etc
I don't - know the answer - but unless said developers have done a deal with MS that the industry is aware of - I doubt it - and if that is the case - then
the X Box will fail to grow as MS have forecast recently
Microsoft needs these developers - to grow X box users to flight simming - and need the sim to be developed for both PC and Consoles - on the way they
have been spruking - the massive developments - in the use of gaming - and methods
My conclusion - MS and the developers are still crossing the "T" and the "I's" of a deal to do what the user - ME!! - expects them to do - to give us the sim
we have started to enjoy - based on developers - and maybe a solution on the ines of the current 3rd party Community file - a MS Official file - and a paid
developer file - used by Orbx Central and others. A monetary adjustment made to MS.
Whatever happens - if I cant get get what I have already purchased for Orbx PC - then so be it - it wont be the fault of Orbx for not trying and I will still use my
games pass to use a limited Flight sim on the console
Now - where can I get my Hands on an X box series X
Good luck getting an XBox X took me over 4/5 months to get my son one. Also got him a Samsung 32” 4K Monitor to go with it. Don’t give up because MSFS looks sensational on the XBox X (performance is a dream).

Did you set Win10 to HDR10 ?
HDR and WCG color settings in Windows 10 (microsoft.com)
It may have been disabled possibly. I don't have a HDR10 monitor but I did try it on a HDR UHD TV this weekend and I found that you need to do this first.
Hope that helps
Cheers
Pete
Thanks for the info Renault much appreciated, I seem to forget more than I remember these days

They have been submitted a few days ago and are with Microsoft to be published as soon as they can. We hear the "queue" is getting a bit long, so we are waiting patiently!
Thanks Anna.

A few of us have also noticed this and commented in another non dedicated posting. Yours is perhaps best to have a dedicated posting so wanted to add that myself and 2 others have also come across this.

weird. given I updated all the marketplace items last week
Hi what are your settings, mine are mostly set to High but not Ultra, I am wondering if the amount of POIs we see is settings dependant. I am away from PC at the moment so unable to experiment myself.
-
The same also for me.
-
This gets harder every month. Some fine shots I had it between 8 favourites. I have decided on:
digital896 MSFS Liverpool EGGP
It looks real

i reinstalled the (very detailed) Newcastle upon Tyne freeware.
Strangely whether it’s there or not I’m getting a collision with an invisible object at 2000ft when flying over the city. Strange bananas
I also suffered a strange collision in Newcastle, same as you. I have no freeware add on’s just the Orbx Central UK add on.
-
Firstly many thanks to the Orbx team for this add on. It’s impossible to add every POI but you seem to have got most of them. I’ve had a quick 5 min look at the cities and they look really good.
Most of my Settings are at High, just wondered if there is a certain setting I need in Max/Ultra to see everything?
Thanks.

Hi the only Orbx Scenery I am seeing on the MSFS Xbox X Marketplace so far is NZ Mesh. Didn’t know that was been released but I can’t see EGLC London and Singapore yet. Any ideas when they will appear? Thanks.

Hello,
I find the same.
if you just visit the landmarks though, by starting at EGLC, does the simulator still crash?
Hi Nick it doesn’t crash for me using your above situation but it does crash if I select London as a discovery flight all very strange. Not trying to jump here ref. above but seems we are having the same problem so thought more info helps.

Thanks, it look like yours has perhaps updated during the WU6 or newer Hotfix update and because of my changes mine hasn’t. Not sure how to correct this, thanks for sharing.
