pmb Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I have to admit these transitions are convincing indeed. One important factor is certainly the perfect color matching. Kind regards, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, what was the order of release again for FTX Netherlands: I am sure it's posted somewhere but I can't find it anymore. Will it be P3D first and the AFS2 or...?

BrianV Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Stunning.The Europe LC looks already good in the Netherlands, but this forthcoming Region surely sets new standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Poole Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 yes agreed J and V it would seem that the seasons are all there, in P3D and Xplane just a shame that we wont be able to see them in AFS2. I am sure it can be done though???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hakkie Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 These looks are really impressing! A nitpicking question: if I didn't miss any, then it seems all buildings have straight walls. Will you be able to model houses, office buildings etc. with rounded walls? Of course it can be that there are no such buildings in real life on the location of your pictures.

Euphonist Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Today I made a flight from Amsterdam to Den Helder with the Cessna C172 Skyhawk. So when the Netherlands is released, I can fly again and compare. I recorded and you follow it at: Greetings, Wil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Venema Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 We will start official beta testing next week on the 18th February. Iain Emms and John Lovell with be posting proper shots from the near-finished product at that time. This will be from P3Dv4.2. The launch version will be FSX/P3D with AFS2 to follow later this year and X-Plane a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently reinstalling my entire PC (from scratch), specially for P3D 4.2, so I will have a nice clean system when FTX Netherlands arrives.

JeroendeB Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Aaahh, I was so much looking forward to this scenery on X-Plane..... and it looks like it has dropped from a development to a possibility. I am running P3D and ASF2 too (so I will buy it anyway) but as said I was really looking forward to the X-plane version. I fly with Oculus and X-plane gives me the best overal experience. The flightmodels, the visual details of the aircrafts (especially the modded default C172 and Zibo + RG modded 737), the sounds etc. etc. are stunning. ASF2 beats the other sims on framerates but the planes are much more sophisticated in X-plane and P3D. Please, please bring this scenery to X-plane as well.

John Venema Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Oh it’s definitely a strong possibility for X-Plane, we have areas in alpha build stage already. The main issue is one of resources. We are a smaller team than people realise and embracing 2-3 new platforms means that it will take years until we get to a stage of multi-platform parallel development and releases. The good thing is that most of the work done for the single-season AFS2 version will translate easily enough to X-P. All of the 3D objects we have made can port straight over as well.

Rob Ainscough Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Sounds like your team is definitely got "workflow" down and I would imagine a slew of helpful tools to make that happen. So I guess this is proof that PR can look good in P3D V4.2 and other devs need to figure it out ... Excellent work as always ... if you can retro-fit some of the existing Airports that have some PR that would certainly do wonders for blending. Cheers, Rob.

Understand this is an endemic XPlane issue though. Will continue patiently waiting for news of FSW development... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlund Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I think I saw somewhere there's around 1200-1300 windmills in the Netherlands (please correct me if I'm wrong) but don't worry, I don't expect you to model each and everyone of them. :-) I have been to Zaanse Schans, and I know there's a place called Kinderdijk, which have a large collection of them. Are there any plans of including them in the scenery? And how's the beta test doing, any chances of new screenshots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool! (The upcoming screenshots, not the embargo. ) Will those be from FSX/P3D only or also already from AFS2? As far as I am concerned this is the most anticipated scenery addon in years. Can't remember being so excited about a scenery addon since FTX Norway and this one will be even better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverreveal Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Im pretty new to Orbx and flight sims, only had the global products before. This scenery though will be an instant buy.
