Holger Sandmann Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hi all, here are a few impressions of some of the local photoreal sections included with CRM and the many windfarms in central Washington and other areas. We'll post more in the next days. Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Cormier Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 this is looking so awesome, i cant wait to fly over some crater's. I was wondering if those will mill blades will be turning when the wind blows or if they are static. even static wind mills are better then what FSX gave us.

Holger Sandmann Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 Hi guys, thanks for the kind words. The wind turbunes are the same as in NRM (check southern Alberta) meaning they are always turning at a leisurely pace and have flashing obstruction lights but don't respond to wind direction or strength. There will be four photoreal areas within Yellowstone Park centered on the main geyser areas and the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. No photoreal coverage in Jackson Hole/Grand Tetons for now but we've got it in our sights for a future service pack. Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockliffe Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Take off from CZPC Pincher Creek there you will find some wind farms. Cheers Kimo. I'm touring the NRM at the moment in my C340. I will take a detour and make that a point of call this afternoon. Might post some screenies also. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HercFan Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Thanks for those Holger. Since I spend like... 99% of my NA flying in NRM, I am soooo looking forward to CRM. I try to be contagious so people leave the KORS-Darrington-Mears, etc routes... But then again, it leaves more amazing spots for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricky76 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Are we getting close to release? I'm really excited for this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Newman Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 There is always something to look forward to these days. Great scenery, some of the shots look like they could have been taken on another planet. One of the reasons I love Washington State and the NW US in general... You can travel 400 miles east to west and see practically every terrain and climate known on Earth! Plus my home town of Richland is there... I'm dying to see if the Hanford Site has been included (even in a basic form)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But dawg-gonnit... now I have to go buy yet another TB drive so I can be ready for the rest of the Rockies coverage AND the NEW ZEALAND regions!!! My thanks to all on the ORBX Team for their tireless efforts! Cheers, Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eray9s Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Holger I have been trying to locate and fly over the twin craters and even though there has been some help in locating I have been unable to locate. I believe they are, more or less north of mountain home I have had no luck. Would you give me some stats as to how I might locate. I believe the crm installation is o k so I know of no reason why I cannot locate. thanks eray9s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 Hello eray9s, the two craters are quite small and thus fairly easy to miss. However, they lie straight north of KMUO, about 8mi from the airport, and abut 2mi before reaching the Interstate Highway. Alternatively, you can put your aircraft in slew mode, then go into Map View and type in the lat/long coordinates: N43Ëš11.4' W115Ëš51.6'. Or, you can load up our kmz file in Google Maps, zoom in on the Mountain Home area, find the placemark for the twin craters photoreal area, and look at the local configuration of airports, roads, and other landmarks; see http://www.orbxsyste...-kmz-map-files/ Happy hunting!
