Empire Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I have the full global pack and using rex 4 texture direct for the ground runaway improvements that I do like -I had HD airport graphics before orbx, It seems that both together looks so bad that I removed "Airport Graphics" since orbx looks way cooler So Is there are addons like REX Worldwide Airports that will work with orbx or I'm just better off not having it and use texture direct to improve the runaways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudger Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hello, REX Worldwide Airports works very well with Orbx in my FSX, but I am waiting for the update to install into P3Dv4. It should be released the early part of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hello, with a tiny bit of ingenuity, it already works in P3D v4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hello Stewart. Set your P3D v4 root folder into the P3D v3 settings box. That's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Thank you, sir. That sounds easy--I'll try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart Hobson Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 This also works for me, but I had to uninstall the program from FSX before the installer allowed an install into the P3D root folder. It thought I wanted to repair the existing FSX install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empire Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 I will test it with Zinertek HD airports pack that I got, not as good as rex but only pack that I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudger Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Stew, Rex installs Worldwide Airports into it's own folder on C: drive, you did not need to run the installer, just the Program. I did the same at first then realised. What are we like ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Smudger, But does the program know I want to alter the P3D defaults, not the FSX defaults? I have both sims. Anyway, it's a done deal now. P3D default airports have the new textures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hello Stewart, perhaps if I had added this screen shot? You can see that before running the program, one must select which simulator to install the textures to. Once you have added the root folder and selected the correct simulator, Rex do the rest. In this image, P3D v3 is selected but the path is to V4 and the textures are successfully installed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thanks, Nick. That's what I did, but only after mistakenly deleting it first. No harm, no foul. It works as advertised, and the P3Dv4 default buildings and vehicles look much better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
