The reason that I like to use Orbx airports in XP11 is first of all the quality AND that they fit in nicely with their True Earth range AND they are easy to install using their Central software tool where one has the facility to choose different drives AND the choice of their partners' addon airports can also be installed using Central and I assume that all those also blend in nicely with the TE scenery range. Any chance of looking at producing Malaga airport as an addon please, either by yourselves or from one of your partners, now that TE Southern Spain has been released? Also, I assume that TE Northern Spain is now in the pipeline?

answered SAM library shows up twice in scenery_packs.ini
orbmoke replied to Maker's topic in X-Plane 11 Support Forum
Ah ok - I have both those airports installed. I'm tending to shy away from other 'SAM' installations for other 3rd party airports as last time I had problems with what seemed a clash between the Orbx 'SAM' and other 'SAM' additions appearing in the 'ini' file at the same time. -

Hi John - in Orbx's Central under 'My Products' there is listed SAM as an entry. Is this not the same for everyone who uses the Orbx Central facility? I assumed it was and that it was automatically loaded (as 'Libraries' is automatically loaded) when anyone installed 'Central'. -

@Maker- I remember some time ago now that when I installed some 3rd party airport scenery, I also installed their own SAM package as well. That was a mistake as it looked like that there was a clash between their SAM software and Orbx's own version of SAM. It caused all sorts of problems at the airport in question. As soon as I deleted the 3rd party SAM software package, that resolved the problems that I was having. It seems most non-Orbx airport scenery comes with its own version of SAM. I always choose the option of not to install it to avoid any further clashes with SAM that Orbx provides. -
announcement Microsoft Partnership Series : Orbx Simulation Systems
orbmoke replied to Orbx's topic in Orbx Company Updates
I agree - for me their TE series of addon sceneries for XP11 looks more realistic than for MSFS. -
Actually, it's just a thought - how long will you be holding the discount for from the 26th? It's just that I won't be able to access the Orbx Central software to download this scenery on my PC until I get back from the Christmas break on the 2nd of January? Is there any way of paying for it without using Orbx Central using my iPad and then download it after my return?

'Had the bridge already been included in MSFS, you would have been paying twice for it, when buying the cityscene' No, because if the bridge was already included, then Orbx would not have included it in their package. They didn't include the opera house as that was already there. I just think the release of MSFS has been rushed to get it out into the market. Maybe they should have waited a year or two before they released it in order to correct any scenery anomolies that are quite clearly there from the start. That way, it wouldn't be necessary to pay extra for what should have been there in the first place!

Well it is really - you're paying extra for something that should have been there in the first place!

Nope - I'll be sticking with XP11 and download any TE + large airport addons that Orbx provide in the future for that sim. If they don't then they don't and I'll be fine with that. I'll take a view on MSFS AFTER XP12 is released (even if that's years ahead) and then compare. Meanwhile, I'm more than happy with Orbx addons that I have to date and just love the quality that the sim provides with all the Orbx addons that I have so far. There are many other advantages that XP11 has over MSFS at the moment, but those advantages may disappear over time as Microsoft upgrades - we shall see.

Correct order of Orbx TE GB entries in scenery_packs.ini
orbmoke replied to John Venema's topic in X-Plane 11 Support Forum
@afcad - you’re lucky! I never got any low flying lanterns with my EGLC! I think I’ll ask for a discount! -
Correct order of Orbx TE GB entries in scenery_packs.ini
orbmoke replied to John Venema's topic in X-Plane 11 Support Forum
@John Venema - sorry John, but I'm a little confused looking at my 'ini' file order as there are other files in between all the OrbX True Earth files. Is that ok? For example, Shoreham Roads is one of the files in question, as are Barton Overlay and Landmarks - Sydney, Also the OrbX Library file is right at the bottom as well, Is that were it should be? Please would you have a quick look at the order of my 'ini' files and check if they are all in order.
