rotrhed Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I think it would be neat to have all the training facilities around ft Rucker Alabama for us rotor heads. Also, although default Pensacola NAS is a bit beefed up, I'd like to see an ORBX version. I'd love to see my home airport KSLE in Salem Oregon done as pay ware seeing as it is already in PNW territory. It's a great small and large GA and military field and home to the famous flight deck restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qantas747 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Most defiantly YSSY. If they won't do a full rendition, I would atleast like for ORBX to do an 'upgrade' for FTX global. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Hamilton Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 They're replacing default textures with the already available pool of FTX textures. I doubt they're planning to touch any airports until they do the full detailed regions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Abernathy Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 They're replacing default textures with the already available pool of FTX textures. I doubt they're planning to touch any airports until they do the full detailed regions. Bruce, just to add to your post, JV says they are making additional texture sheets for FTX Global and not just using the already available pool. So we can look forward to all areas of the globe looking more realistic than is even possible right now! Nice, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 21 January 2013 - 08:15 PM Although having said that - we will also be making payware airports made specifically for FTX Global in places like Asia or South America etc. Regards, JV In case anyone is interested, that was JV's last reply after I made a comment on the ORBX to release FTX Global thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Watson Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Well, I guess the airports that I visit the most are top of the list, I fly to these with a VA in the NGX. I have some with Payware already, but would love to see any of them done FTX style!

petfy Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 From the Global announcement "including a constant flow of upgraded airports at key locations around the world, for example Helsinki in Finland or Manila in the Phillipines". Note the word "key", and don't forget that these will be "lite" airports. So I would like some major international airports, one in each region, (as implied by the announcement) around the world so that long haul flyers can fly between them. From what I understand, one of the purposes of Global is to have Orbx scenery at the departure and arrival airports of different regions, currently not able to be done under the current FTX Central arrangement. Sydney, for Australia Mumbai, Changi, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Manila, for Asia Honolulu, Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, New York, for NA Rio de Janeiro, for SA London, Stockholm, Frankfurt-Main, Athens, Moscow, for Europe Johannesburg, Cairo, for Africa Dubai, for Middle East A good "all round" 20. I hope some one at Orbx can shed more light on these Global airports as it "value adds" to the cost of the Orbx Global purchase decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your list of airports to be produced, as a matter of opinion, what do you think ORBX will bring to most of those airports though that the likes of UK2000, FSDT or FlyTampa already do?

John Venema Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 We are indeed assembling a team of airport developers to do two things: 1. Upgrade default FSX airports for FTX Global to improve them with our Orbx library object, much like PNW, NZ, EU airports have been done. These will be airports all around the world have not yet been developed by other companies as payware. These will be FREE downloadable content for FTX Global. 2. Develop new payware Orbx airports which sit on top of FTX Global, for areas of the world which may take some time for full-featured FTX regions to reach, i.e. Asia, South America etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmniAtlas Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 More Asian airports please. Severely lacking in the flightsim-ware space. Kuala Lumpur International Airport (Malaysia) Singapore Beijing Sydney (hey we can always hope huh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petfy Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 .......... what do you think ORBX will bring to most of those airports though that the likes of UK2000, FSDT or FlyTampa already do? I am under the impression that Fly Tampa, and UK2000 are mostly payware, whereas the lite added Orbx Global airports will be additives, so (1) they will be quasi freeware. Again, my impression is why Orbx scenery gained a good following in its early development was that it was also frame rate friendly. As Orbx Global will be essentially scenery, I hope the developers will make these lite airports framerate friendly (unlike the "lite" Launceston airport which has a bit of a fps hit rate). So (2) frame rate friendly. (3) Uniformity of airport design. I find that some of the airports of other designers still have mistakes. I sometimes hit invisible walls caused by the development tool, or by inattention to detail. So (4) dependibility. (5) No effort required to search for and install these airports. There are propably more reasons, but I cant think of them at the moment. Orbx personnel have probably heavily researched the marketing release of lite airports and could add to this list.

Ripcord Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Really anything that Aerosoft hasn't done -- I find that most of those are pretty good. Actually there is NO good scenery for Houston, the fourth largest city in the US. The stuff that is out there is pretty weak. Would like to see something that included Galveston, Baytown, the Woodlands, and Katy -- that's about 5 or 6 countries right there. The good news is that outside of the downtown area, it's mostly just a function of getting the landclass right and the roads/rivers/streams/lakes in the right place.
