The team have recommenced work on SoCal. Why it took a back seat? We adjust resources and timelines on a number of reasons that I won't bore you with.

 

Many thanks Ed for a comprehensive and polite answer :)

Will SoCal also cover the Las Vegas area?

 

I really don't see how it could being in another state but may be you will get an informed answer from the devs. The states of Nevada, Utah, Arizona & New Mexico etc are pretty baron areas with some spectacular natural formations and occasional towns/cities which would be great to see modelled but I don't see the entire state being done. We do already have Monument Valley in Utah/Arizona.

did you guys model the forts in Key West?  Fort Zachary Taylor?

Fort Zachary Taylor is in Key West.  A representation of Fort Jefferson is also generated out on the Dry Tortugas.

The Key West airport scenery has a good model of Fort East Martello too.

Ft Jefferson is not appearing for me other an an ortho image

My screenshot was taken with both TE Florida HD and the Key West scenery installed. 

Maybe the fort is part of the Key West airport package?

I checked & key west is on top and then I tried TE on top but both situations the fort does not appear, as it does for you.   any idea?  thanks

My Key West entries are above the TE Florida entries in the scenery_packs.ini.

Perhaps try a "verify files" in Orbx Central?

If that doesn't make the fort show up, I suggest posting in the support forum, where one of the Orbx support staff will see it and respond faster.

(I'm just on the Orbx Beta test team and not part of the staff.)

According to the map used for SocCal POI requests they are including the tile just south of Las Vegas.  This is due to XPlane 1 degree by 1degree tile system.  Currently there are no POIs in this file on the Nevada side.  They have marked the solar farms on the California side. I hope they can be add at least Primm since it is similar to the casino near South Lake Tahoe in Nor Cal.  
 

Maybe in a future release they can do a Las Vegas-Laughlin-Flagstaff-Grand Canyon-Phoenix TE release for this area.

Perhaps another VStates will come out for Nevada, plus FlyTampa is going to release Las Vegas airport & city for x-plane,  so a win win
