announcement Australia v2 SP1 released

[Ed Correia]

Hi all,

 

at long last, our substantial service pack for Australia v2 is ready, with apologies for the delay. In addition to a number of bug fixes we've also added a whole bunch of new content, including non-default airports and a large number of tall antennae, chimneys, and other vertical obstructions.

 

This update is only available via Orbx Central, if you have not switched from FTX Central then please do so from here.
