  1. Auckland city pack is amazing yet I can't help but feel that something is off. There are super high-resolution bricks in some places, furniture in buildings but no apron in the heliport. Why put the effort into the builds for the helipad if not spend the time to put a ground apron in. Without it, this is almost unflyable. NZMB is an ICAO port why not allow you to spawn up there as an airport also...? Just seems so strange. I really hope that this can be fixed as then this may be the most detailed landmark pack from Orbx ever.
  2. Also say someone has just bought $200 worth of Orbx products today they may be in titled to some sort of refund or credit as they have been incorrectly charged $20 which is a considerable amount of money.
  3. Either way for Australia customers Orbx just needs to clarify, 1, despite telling customers GST was included it in-fact wasn’t (which sounds kinda dodgy and tax fraudy to me so I doubt it’s this) 2, when they went to include taxes they forgot to remove the already included GST 10% tax hence now having double taxes applied. (Which would also mean the 10% applied gst tax is actually more like 11% because of the higher base price) 3, Orbx did this knowingly as are pocketing my extra dollarydoos I can’t speak for other countries but given Orbx is Australian company and I am in Australia Orbx would have been required to declare GST tax when they had income above 75,000. Given Orbx made over 7 million with funding of 12 million or something like that last year they’ve been paying GST for a long long time. So the “base price” at which taxes have been added obviously is the price of already included GST which is why this screams dodgy to all the Australians. Should taxes be added at checkout.... no. There’s a reason why consumers like to see the full price on store not at checkout. As Australia we shouldn’t be seeing any change in price at all if what Orbx has said is true hence the confusion.
  4. Orbx had already included GST since I can remember so they are now showing tax as an additional section so probably an IT error charging GST twice. The thing that was confusing me is if GST has always been included does that mean people buying products overseas haven’t been paying local taxes?
  5. At this stage I will not be buying anything until this is fixed
  6. Not having charged GST previously would mean Orbx has been naughty
  7. Not sure if anyone has noticed Orbx quietly increase ALL THE PRICES of every product in their store in the last week. Let's look at some examples, Orbx Landmarks Adelaide has gone from $12.99 to $14.29 (That's an 8% increase in price) Global Vectors (P3Dv5) $50.00(ish within around 1 dollar of that) is now $54.95 YMEN (one of the oldest products soon to be replaced) $32.95 to $36.25 I could go on to include my entire Orbx Library as everything has increased in price. Everything. Then I thought what about partner products, to list a few FlyTampa YSSY $23 to $25.85 NZA YMHB $29.95 to $32.44 So we can clearly see there has been a direct and noticeable increase in product pricing around the 5-10% range. But now let's look at the price of the Australian dollar, and no it hasn't lost 10% of its value in the last 24h. Now prices increases are part of life I don't care that much however I would have thought with such a dramatic increase in price (espessially when the AUS dollar is realitvy high compared to last 2019 and 2020) that Orbx would at least mention this publically....
  8. Works with AUSv2 ‘ish’ just have to remove the bgl which is for the horrid ortho around the airport. Hopefully Orbx will release YPPH but I reckon YMMLv4 should be a higher priority. Especially with YMENv2 coming around YMMLv3 is looking especially old and clunky. Numerous errors include the wrong colour of the old tiger wing of T3, no dynamic lighting, old window textures day and night, no sode and missing the new taxi ways.
  9. Funny there was no mention of YBBNv2 for msfs since it's in the aircraft screenshot
