stevieiz Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Hi folks, Question albeit it would appear a silly question. Can ALL the default scenery be turned off if using Global, LC, FTX ? Just a thought to save resource when loading up scenery. Thanks S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro VH-JET Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Hi Stevieiz, On face value it would sound like a great idea, but when you dig a little deeper you will find major issues if you were to uncheck the default Base layers. These are essential to the overall makeup of the core simulator, where many features are coexisting with higher detail features in FTX. A little like choosing not to load a spare tyre, tools, or foot-pump on a long car journey, just so that you can save on fuel, inevitably you will have a puncture on a lonely road far from any help, and find that the fuel savings was not worth the lighter load. Even if their presence seems unnecessary, the simulator as a whole requires these files for airport facilities, AI aircraft, ICAO data, GPS data, location & placement Airports, mapping of coastlines & terrain, and many other equally important features too numerous to list. Orbx staff & developers will most likely offer a more detailed explanation and possibly correct me if wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
