Rhys01 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Hi all I am very new to Orbx and enjoying my first purchase which is NZ North Is. I am playing around with FSX object placement tool and having fun creating some small scenery locations Is there a master list with images of the objects that have the guild numbers that appear in the scenery list. Cheers Rhys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is of no use in MSFS2020 though I had Instant Scenery with FSX, and loved it. Best thing I did with it was to make a decent representation of the American Airpower Museum at Farmingdale Republic Airport (NY) KFRG. I am glad to see that it is compatible with P3Dv5. I'll install it! Thanks, Ken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken, I don't know if is is compatable with P3Dv5, that is why I still have FSX installed. Anything I wish to create is done in FSX and then I copy it into my P3dv4 and P3Dv5. Up till now I have not seen any obvious anomalies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiletto2 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Best I remember, Instant Scenery compatibility stopped at P3Dv3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larryisenor Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 We used it to do True Earth Florida and seemed to work fine. Larry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiletto2 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 @larryisenorAre you saying you were able to install IS3 into P3Dv5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larryisenor Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Instant Scenery files were placed using FSX but will work fine in P3Dv4 and 5 as the BGL files work the same. You need to have scenery objects with the same GUID in libraries for both simulators or the objects will not display. Most of the default and Orbx objects are the same in both.

stiletto2 Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Yes, I agree. You can also create the placement files in P3Dv3 and use them in later P3D versions following the restrictions that you mentioned. It is too bad that Instant Scenery cannot be used directly in P3Dv4 or v5 to to place objects since Flight1 never updated Instant Scenery to be able to run as a module in P3Dv4/v5.
