Stillwater Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 When I started my first virtual Australia tour in FSX years ago, this was my first flight out of the Melbourne area: Starting from Avalon... ... over Geelong... ... and towards YCES Ceres. The curved runway impressed me a lot, but I do not plan to land here today. Going on to YGLG Geelong... ... towards today´s destination: YTMW Tiger Moth World. A place well suited for @VH-KDK due to the static plane, and to @Jack Sawyer due to its color. Did you recognize the purpose of this flight? Kudos to Jorge @aeronauta, who has obviously done a magic job. Download the current libs on http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/topic/27004-ozx-p3d-libraries-open-beta-updated-27112017/ and please report any problems with relevant info and pics THERE.

Jack Sawyer Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 This is brilliant Gerold! Wow, amazing stuff here. Thank you my friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Harmes Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Great pics Gerold. Hey, me too. I think YCES was the first OzX strip I ever landed at, and I spent ages exploring that whole Geelong area and all the strips. There are quite a few strips in that area. That was before I even heard of ORBX, but it wasn't long before I added the Australian terrain from ORBX to complete the package. Tigermoth World was also one of my favourites, and Jorge did do an outstanding job with the libraries. It looks like a new airport in P3D. I have driven past that airport many times in the real world. BTW I think it is actually known as Torquay Airport (YTQY) as that is where Tigermoth World is based. Great pics!

BradB Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Fantastic looking shots Gerold , you have better luck right out of the gate with anything OZX in P3D . I tried to install the complete package of OZx and Ants airports into 4.1 and had a epic fail . I had to do a complete reinstall anyway that's my story and I'm sticking to it .

OZx was a great discovery when it came out first, and it looks totally new now. You are probably right with the "ICAO" code of this hub. I was posting too excited & fast... 27 minutes ago, BradB said: Fantastic looking shots Gerold , you have better luck right out of the gate with anything OZX in P3D .

Cheers John Uh, oh, do not make me anxious! I was planning to add the masses of other OZx stuff soon... perhaps I should be slightly careful...

VH-KDK Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Wonderful discovery Gerold. I love OZx which enhances the ORBX scenery so well but I have tended to fly in Queensland , NSW and WA mostly overlooking my own back yard, silly me! You can always do what I have done. I have an external HDD with just FSX, FTX AU, ASN, REXTD, ORBX pay ware and freeware airports, OZx, Ant's and a selection of my favourite planes many of which wont work in P3DV4. Works a treat with great performance. I did try OZx in V2.4 but a lot of the features were missing, maybe something I did wrong but after seeing the problems John has had in V4 I will leave my current set up.

I am prepared to do your procedure, as you see from my sig I have an SSD waiting for a fresh FSX install... but I try to go on with p3d as far as it goes. Jorge has made a library update end of November, perhaps that is the cure. It may also be that some OZx developers used unconvertable library elements (FS20014?) that cause trouble. We´ll see... !

Hey Gerold , I did use Jorge's November update . My issue had to do with how you add the OZx scenery to the P3D scenery list . In FSX it was a snap to add 3rd party scenery and libraries to FSX . I did not get the memo however on doing the same with P3D . John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernd1151 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Gents, if you allow me to say that: the more I read about issues related to include older planes into v4.1, the more I'm happy to stick to 3.4, where all my old stuff works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
