Joshua_Stone Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Great work!, remember farms don't have many houses, say a few on each property, but they have a few tree's. Nice work!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxter Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Just sensational work Koorbs, beautiful. The only point I will make is that you have a bunch of really rich cockies over there. Jeez, most of ours would kill to have such an elaborate setup :D Cheers and thanks for the preview. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi Chris, Most farms are in fact just a single house and a shed or two and some clutter. Those shots are of wineries and/or chook farms mainly, which tend to have more infrastructure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auzy Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I gotta say that this is one of those cases where orbx is starting to look more realistic then real life. I'm not Night VFR yet (in fact, not even day VFR), however, this captures perfectly why I sold my Mac Pro a month ago to upgrade. I think its safe to say that judging by even the effort going into the rural areas, that I will probably spend more of my time getting intimate with Moorabin (YMMB) training area in FSX then in real life, and if these previews are anything to go by, passing the VFR (day) tests should be no problem.

John Venema Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 One of the primary goals of FTX is to support personal VFR training, so having every road, rail river and low- down details will provide for about 90% accurate navs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand not for XPlane, but what do you think about the upcoming Microsoft Train Simulator 2. Since it is built on the FSX engine I imagine it would be pretty easy to port FTX to MSTS2? Come to think of it, FEX would be great in MSFS2 as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
}SkOrPn--7 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 With FTX using real images there is already going to be building etc showing on the ground and trees so how does the auto gen trees and buildings going to work? Does this overlay in the same position as every item on the ground from the image? Can someone explain to me how this is working please... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, every single autogen object is hand-aligned to the photo images on the ground. That includes houses, farms, sheds, trees and even small stables for horses etc. Of course for those whose systems can't cope with all that autogen, just crank the sliders to the left and the textures alone will speak for themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
