Aussieflyer38 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Just three quick ones of the centre of Australia - Alice Springs. For those who haven't visited there as yet, you can see why its called the "Red Centre" Don Alice Springs - herself MS have done a great job with the scenery I'll post some more after I sort out my control issues, in the meantime enjoy.

andiflyit Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Looks good Don if it's the default scenery. I have the entire Orbx Australia in P3d, so I never go there in MSFS. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Nice set Don . But what an isolated place to live. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 These are really nice Don. Sadly I'll never be able to go there for medical reasons but I'll bet it's a neat place to live. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I loved Alice Springs in P3D. I wish Orbx would develop an Alice Springs scenery for MSFS. Very nice images Don 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understood we could show images from Australia but it would be helpful to verify this. Also we can take a screenie from anywhere if a partner's plane is being flown? It would be good if you can clear this up. Thanks Martyn 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remove them if you feel it necessary. Also, as Orbx is in bed with MS, (figure of speech), I feel a little leniency should be permitted, is it not a type of partnership Orbx/MSFS. Thanks.

Thanks Martyn Thanks Martyn, I think we all need this clarified, and just to add another point, we all like to post pics of where we have been flying to share with our friends here on the forum, so what's the point of MS developing these sceneries if we can't enjoy them and share. This has nothing to do with promoting a competitors product, most simmers here have MSFS and can access this scenery anyway.

Yes regarding a partners plane as long as you can see the plane and make it out not just a small piece of the plane that you can not make out what plane it is. cheers Iain 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Yes Don we have relaxed the screenshot forum and screenshot contest rules a good few times since MSFS came along, At the end of the day these are Orbx forums and here for you to post your great shots showing Orbx or Partner products available from OrbxCentral here. This has been asked many times before and its got the same answer, cheers Iain 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
