Early Feb is the plan.

We have cleaned up the ortho below the bridge to make it blend in better, if that is what is meant by "fixed". This is how they appear now.

Hoping for this weekend, we are testing some optimisations still.

Orlando was never made available for purchase for P3Dv5. The only thing that I can think of is where we updated Orlando to be compatible for TrueEarth Florida and that may be what you are thinking of? If you switch to P3Dv4 in Orbx Central you should see it there. Our logs show it being installed into P3Dv4 on July 1st 2020.

Still happening Carlos We are still finishing off the high quality assets to be included.

Hi all, the 1.1 update for FlyTampa YSSY Sydney Airport is now available on Orbx Central. Changelog ILS Fixes Strobes added to runways Terminal Windows improved at night LED lamp color change on Ramp 83-85 Various minor fixes

We hope so and are in discussions with them regarding this.

Another thing...YSSY Sydney Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator is now released. https://orbxdirect.com/product/flytampa-yssy-msfs

A little disappointed that this exciting announcement has turned into a discussion on perceptions of what Orbx is doing. Regardless, will add some comments here but don't want it to be dragged into further debate. OrbxDirect and Orbx Central rival what other developers/resellers offer and is highly regarded. Partners value it and wish to have their products distributed via us and we field many enquiries into joining. We will continue to add new Partners based on criteria such as quality of addons and variety of their products. The majority of Partner releases are their already released content so we are in a way playing catch up. Transferring licenses is something we encourage with Partners as we do prefer customers having all their purchases in the one spot, but there are factors where this may not be feasible. We released 54 products in 2020 (53 in 2019, 33 in 2018) with 23 for MSFS, 19 for ESP and 12 for XP11. So we are still focused on the core business of creating new content. Being able to switch to MSFS quickly is hardly a sign of things "going off the boil" and we did so deliberately to support its launch as a partner of Microsoft. As things settle down, we still see strong demand for P3D (and we commenced development on openLC Asia on this basis) and the recent TrueEarth Canary Islands has had fantastic take up which was very pleasing to see. How do we support all these platforms? That's the challenge and opportunity in front of us.

Now available on Orbx Central - version 1.13 Changelog - Further improvements to canopy scratches - Fixed bug preventing pilot figures to show in the green-checker livery - Added red and silver livery courtesy of Christoph Tantow - Added checklists courtesy courtesy of Lucas Aulen aka Laulenture - Changed mapping of airspeed needle for better gauge readability - Remapped fuel selector color to avoid issues with mouse drag problems introduced in MSFS 1.12.13.0 (note: the way it works now is that clicking on the fuel selector will switch between left and right tanks, clicking on the support will set the selector to off)

Happy New Year all, and time for some previews We are getting closer to that beta, but please bear in mind that this a quite a large project. Regardless, development is making good progress considering the overall scale. Once we are in that testing phase you can expect some more previews!

You can purchase through the website directly and then download later with Orbx Central. The discount will run till the 29th December.

Noted.

Aiming for Tuesday.

IndiaFoxtEcho have updated the Long-EZ to Version 1.11 and is now available via Orbx Central. Changelog - Added wing pods: to make them appear, add weight to the Wing Pods station in the fuel and weight settings - Vastly reduced elevator trim effectiveness following feedback from version 1.10 - Several tweaks to improve the behavior at high speeds - Reduced rudder effectiveness, especially during takeoff run - Reduced canopy sound attenuation (considered excessive by some users) - Added traditional (non-canard) flight model files for users who may prefer those settings (files are in the “backup old flight model” folder)

The entire airport is modelled. I’ll make sure to add them to the product pages.

Yes

Just to set expectations, we plan to announce the roadmap specifically to openLC Asia. There won’t be previews etc. but our plan on it’s rollout over the next 12 months.

No estimate as yet, sorry. You can get it now via OrbxDirect though

No released! https://orbxdirect.com/product/mkstudios-efhk

We have some news coming next week about openLC Asia

With regards to Sydney, there has been the technical limitation with one of the files due to its size. Playfab cannot handle files larger than 4GB and the Sydney ortho file size is larger. We do have a proposed solution whereby we have this ortho file distributed by Orbx Central for MS customers.

Appears that the discount wasn’t setup correctly, we will identify the affected transactions and process partial refunds.

There is a 20% discount for P3D customers.

Not aware of anything, release is happening very soon.
