    Will it be available for Xbox as well, cause fselite says on their website it will ( so it is tagged in their news-category’s  “MSFS” and “MSFS Xbox”)

     

    Would be happy about an serious and clear answer to that, thanks and keep up the good work!

    Hello,

     

    yes Lieo v2 will be available for XBOX.

    Please make sure there's an option to disable the sounds. I'm seeing this more and more from developers but the sounds end up being comically loud and you can hear them 4 parking spots over from the inside of the cockpit.

    Hello,

     

    the sound it is only from the jetway when calls to be connected to the aircraft and it is a very subtle sound, so it doesn't produce any weird loud sound.

     

    cheers

    Better than the competitor work but sorry

    To me, there is not life in this airport, and all brown-ish. Why ?

    It does not reflect the fantastic colorful glasswall modern façade of the main terminal neither

    Hi Dom,

     

    I do not understand what you are saying. The scenery reflects the real life in every aspect also in the colour of the facade.

    @Matteo Veneziani ... Hello, I would like to add Olbia to my collection but I have been 'put off' by some of the negative comments including inability to disable/remove static aircraft and low-res textures used on terminal fascia.

    Some time ago, I think you mentioned in another thread that you would be updating the scenery...  just wondering if you can let us know how things are progressing please?

    Hi,

     

    The update it is under developing and i would like to complete it within the start of summer season. Because will be a free update it is can not be the main focus. However the update ( which would be better call v2 instead of "update" ) will include:

    -new groundpoly with improved textures, and longer runway

    -improved airport buildings

    -new jetway

    -possibility to remove static airplanes

    -etc..

     

    Regards

    Hi Matteo,
    thanks for chiming in, really appreciate it. 

     

    Well, I gotta say, I tried once again to approach LIEO just a couple of minutes ago, and there's still something broken with the ILS, at least on my system.

    I tried to land on 23, but the g/s seems to lead me into the ground well before I reach the runway threshold.

    Please see screenshots attached, following the glideslope I get four red PAPI lights the whole approach (image 1).
    On image two, I went visual because the g/s would have just guided me into the trees. I'm now well above the slope but still with four red PAPIs (image 2).

    Maybe there's something wrong on my end but this has been reported by others too.
    Can you confirm that the ILS works correctly on your system? 

     

    Thanks!



     

     

     

    Hi,

     

    Probably it could be you are using new chart with longer runway instead of the old with shorter runway ( which is in the sim ). However the ILS/GS it is the stock fs2020 one.

     

    cheers

    So no info/response by the developer?

    The scenery has been broken for minths and the developers don‘t seem to care…?

    What am I suppose to do now?

    Request a refund?

    Who should I contact?

     

    Good morning,

     

    I am the developer of Olbia ( LIEO ). I have tried the scenery with the latest fs2020 update and everything it is working fine, nothing is broken. The update with new longer runway and some other improvements will come in the near future, at soon as i will be able to do it. It is not fast as people think do this type of things.

     

    cheers

    Skiathos - building variety and LOD popping

    in Microsoft Flight Simulator Support Forum

    For me, the airport itself is splendid, but the other various buildings around the island are really not up to par. There are two issues really. The first, I'm happy to admit, is a bit subjective. All the new buildings are far too clean and look like they are some sort of marzipan sweetie. Not a single roof has any weathering, and all the buildings look ridiculously new. In @Britjet's examples above, for me the default buildings are an order of magnitude better than those supplied in this addon.

     

    The second issue unfortunately amplifies the first. These new buildings are all to the wrong scale - they're way too big. Which just makes their shiny bright presence way too obvious. If you look at this first shot below, you can see the height of the trees at the edges of the car park -

    And now look at the hight of the trees in front of this building, they barely reach the top of the ground floor -

    gHpi6nL.jpg

     

    And here's the nearest set of buildings I could find next to the actual airport buildings
    DehnP48.jpg

     

    I realise these houses are up an embankment from the airport buildings, but even so they are about the same height as them.

     

    Is there any way to easily exclude all these buildings on loading, maybe a couple of individual files that can be set 'building model.OFF' or similar?

     

    These buildings take the shine right off what is otherwise a pretty amazing bit of scenery. I've just upgraded to a 55 inch HDR monitor (not TV) and the environment here is just breathtaking (doesn't show up in the screenshots due to the problems grabbing HDR screenshots), but these buildings totally spoil it for me. They don't belong in MSFS.

    Hi the scale of the buildings it is correct. Looks like you have something installed at your end which make the height of the trees very low.

    Skiathos - building variety and LOD popping

    Hi,

    As a release item I have to say that in my opinion the Skiathos scenery is not up to the high standard expected of Orbx products.

    The airport itself is fine - but..

     

    The popping of buildings across the island is frankly ridiculous - there seem to be serious LOD issues here, which hopefully can be fixed, but a far worse shortcoming in my opinion is the almost complete lack of variety of buildings on the island to replace the default ones. The vast majority in this package are simple rectangular blocks with 4 or 6 windows. By comparison the default is much more varied in shape and design. It is very, very noticeable.

    It now looks like “Toytown”. It is FAR worse than default.

     

    By all means keep the airport and the few nearby landmarks, but please leave the island alone.

     

    Britjet

     

     

     

     

    I have chosen to replace by hand all the original fs2020 buildings precisely because they do not make the idea of immersion and authenticity that I wanted to give to the island. So I created 101 different models of generic houses with typical Greek texture that you can find in skiathos and this made it possible to create the typical "skyline" of the city of skiathos. Greek houses are mostly square blocks. For larger buildings, with particular shapes, for all tourist villages, churches, restaurants, sports fields, schools, industrial areas, ports, piers, etc., I created customized 3D models as faithful to reality as possible. I recommend that you take a closer look and discover all the custom buildings and details present.

     

    For the popping of the buildings, I wanted to wait and see user feedback. For my taste with the right setting it is not something that stands out that much. They start appearing 4km away. However, I will shortly do a patch to fix the problem by increasing the visible distance.

     

    however the toytown it seems to me very similar to the real thing, isnt it??
