cyberpilot Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Congratulations to the team for TE Socal. It's absolutely stunning in XP11. These shots were taken on a flight from Bakersfield to Death Valley. After months of wavering about persisting with P3D4 I have decided the future lies with XP11 and Orbx TE sceneries, not to mention some of the marvellous freeware ortho scenery that's available elsewhere. So goodbye P3D - its nice been knowing you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eberhard Haberkorn Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Absolute wonderful shots of such a beautiful area, form the air at least. Doesn't the desert has its charm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 XP's Orbx scenery really can't be beat. I like both sim and like Martyn I too have way too much tied up in 4.5 to let it go and V5 is a hot mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks VH-KDK. I'm in the same boat regarding P3D but I've decided to bite the bullet. IMHO XP11 and Orbx TE are in a class of their own and there's no going back! 19 hours ago, mikee said: Wonderful Shots Rod !

It's too fickle for me. For example, I make changes to the keyboard bindings. A few days later I run XP and they're gone. Or the TBM900, every single last time I run XP I have to enter my serial number and password, this is bottled insanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev D Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 There’s something wrong there with your TBM Jack......I have that aircraft and fly it regularly and it has never asked me for the serial........it does remember when I crash though!! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFlight Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Jack, it is advisable to have a copy of the XP11 on another drive. However, I noticed that there can be some oddities, like having to enter the serial number of a plane every now and then. Also Orbx Central had changed or shortened some entries in the scenery_packs.ini. Did you also install a copy of XP11? After I simply deleted my copy of XP11, these strange things are gone now. Just a tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkanoid Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I agree with you. I have been a P3D follower for years but six months ago I changed to XP-11. In general XP default sceneries are much better that P3D ones, the community is more active and the flying physics are better. Until FS2020 I will remain a XP-11 groupie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been mulling over switching to XP11 for the last year but what tipped the scales was TE Socal. There's no going back to P3D for me. Compared to XP11 it seems very dated on so many levels. And yes, the flying physics are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyJohnJohn Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I'm like many others here. So much invested, and I'm waiting for FS2020 before buying a new one, so I love the shots though - well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
