Great improvement after the patch. After taking off from YSSY, I virtually don't see any fps dip flying around the harbor and downtown. Very well done, Frank!
I've had several Sydney City sceneries over my flight sim carreer, and they were always cutting edge at their time, but usually hard on performance. This one is a real showcase of what can be done in MSFS, visually as well as performance-wise.
Kind regards, Michael

Hi there, I have just found the cause (a last minute change to the Harbour Bridge). Will be fixed asap.
Thanks Frank, very welcome. I'm another victim. While the scenery, notably the harbor and the city center, looks stunning beyond imagination, fps dropped to 10-15 for me, too. It was up to > 20-25 as soon as I left the city center. This was under VR.
All cacheing is off on my system

So, my i7-6700K flies MSFS - plus the other sims - perfectly but isn't fit for Win 11. Besides, I don't have that Throttle-Propeller-Mixture (TPM) module on board and no TPM BIOS entry either.
These requirements are highly questionable and might be revised at a point if MS wants users to adopt W11 (say, the remaining PC users left after all). Do any normal people know what a BIOS, let alone a TPM module is?

Amazing. Another great landmarks package in a remarkable setting. Well-done, Orbx.

I hate current graphics adapter prices, too. That's holding me back from buying a new system, as I originally intended in this year.
I'm even more glad I bought that EVGA 1080TI card years ago, which still serves me pretty well (essentially in MSFS, but in the other sims, too). Probably the best investment I ever made into flight simulation.
Kind regards, Michael

I don't know if frequent reviews will help. Navigraph will certainly make the next round of their review series towards the end of this year, and a one-year cycle is pretty optimum in my mind. Only few people are inclined to spend an hour for such reviews more often.
While I have FSX:SE, Prepar3d5, X-Plane 11, AeroflyFS2, and MSFS installed, stuffed with addons and ready to use, I only find me flying in the latter since I was admitted to the MSFS alpha. And I have to admit, I devote much more time to flying than I did in the 30 years before.
Kind regards, Michael

Uncheck the Speedtrees (Dynamic Vegetation).

Hello Frank,
have you set the control panel to match your installation?
I was also curious about this. I uninstalled version 1.0 after the France upgrade and reinstalled 1.1 recently but (contrary to the London pack) I don't see a control panel (which I actually expected). Made a check files already, all okay.
Kind regards, Michael

Offset between static default and reworked shots may not look too striking but:
In my eyes, the best feature would be missing terrain morphing, which has been with us in all FSX/ESP-based simulators as far as I can think back. If this can indeed be achied, I see a bright future for the technology.
Kind reagrds, Michael

Hi, after installing London City Update, all area around the hand crafted building is flat. The Wheel is double. No custom buildings any more. I deleted the rolling catch, but this changed nothing. Any idea?
Did you choose the proper Configuration Setting, i.e. World Update III on/off in Orbx Central? (See Nick's contribution above.)
Kind regards, Michael

Liking the UK update but I have taken a big frame rate hit esp in London and VR is pretty much unplayable/usable in that area now on my lowish specked machine.
Same here, and if you glance through the official forum we're not alone. Well possible, PM off and the Orbx Landmarks may do a better job, but then you would have to deactivete all PM cities which I don't want either.
Kind regards, Michael

Thank you for the update, this is certainly going to be an excellent solution from the side of Orbx. I am stilly glad, Orbx jumped in with the original London landmarls pack, as London looked really poor in the release version of MSFS.
And yes, I've a bit of a mixed feeling about Orbx not getting a pre-release version. Even more, as this will be a standard situation for all City Pack/ POI pack / Landmarks makers, not only Orbx, which will repeate with every World update. The next loophole for Orbx will probably be the Paris landmarks pack.

This is very welcome, I bought the two of their sceneries, really enjoyable ones. Glad, there will be a way to shift them into Orbx Central.

This is a great video. I agree to Carlos, brief developer-plus-product videos now and then would be cool. I am always interested in the makers behind the products, that's why I enjoy the Asobo Feature Discovery and Q&A series. Although I understand making a professional video like this one is resource-intense in a big way.
I only missed one developer, partially retired now,... that's JV.
Kind regards, Michael

Singapore looks stunning. Looking forward to more landmark packs which I find are a great addition to MSFS.

Wow, Orbx has done it again! No half-baked Harbor Bridge anymore.
This will be so much fun to fly.

My Orbx Central entry goes to the alpha/beta Contents at this time. That's probably why MS suggested to deinstall it when pre-installing the payware version. Unfortunatey, I still need the beta for a few addon tests. I hope Orbx Central will adapt when I will deinstall the beta on Monday.
Kind regards, Michael

Welcome MSFS in Orbx Central,
I just got an update of Orbx Central and it detected my MSFS pre-installation. No products yet, but the entry and start page are there.
Kind regards, Michael

Can we have an updated survey?

Same here. Simming since 1991 (FS4). Exclusively using MSFS right now, with a rare detour to P3D5.2, XP11, and (yes) AFS2 just for comparison or some testing.
Kind regards, Michael
