John Venema Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 You will easily fit all our upcoming TE regions for P3D into a single 2TB drive. P3D uses a much more efficient BGL format for orthos versus XP11's DDS format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks John You seem to stress the word - "upcoming" Hypotheticaly - if one stuck to PD3R and loaded all present Orbx scenery offered on product page - including TE Britain N_/ S_/ and central - and all Airports so far - and projections like Africa would they still fit on a 2TB ?? - If not - what's your educated asessment of a single drive unit - and I note that yours is 4 TB - so maybe that's the answer - always assuming you play with all your own stuff from Time to time Honest Boss - we are hanging out for info like this - and absolutely nothing to do with sliders and CPUs etc - another story!

Nick Cooper Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Hello, the whole P3D v4 installation with all the presently available Orbx products installed into it is 677 GB. Note that this includes P3D itself as well as the added Orbx products. To bring a sense of perspective back to this topic, I have the following installed for testing and support purposes. P3D v4 with every product. P3D v4 with no addon products at all P3D v4 with all my addon aircraft FSX with every Orbx product FSX with no addon products at all FSX with all my addon aircraft all on the same drive and still only 1.52 TB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitor Marques Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 When will we have the other two regions of GB, Center and North, for P3D? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe777 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Sorry to semi-hijack, but if I can run the XP TrueEarth GB (higher rez ?) pretty well on my PC, will the P3D version in SD, perform, more or less, as well ? I believe that Ortho runs differently in the two sims... or does it ? Thnx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe777 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Anyone ? I would like to spend another few hundred bucks. Just looking for advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_R Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 For what it's worth, my thought is to wait until one needs storage space before buying it. It's embarrassing to buy a lot of storage when you still have adequate space left only to find that by the time you would have needed it, the price of the new drive has dropped by a significant amount, or perhaps more advanced drives are available. At worst, you will only be a week behind getting the latest software offering(s) while you wait for Newegg to ship a new drive and get it installed.
