Jack Sawyer Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I've seen a lot of videos where people actually drive around on the roads in Orbx sceneries win a car. That's pretty cool. Where can I get a car, anyone know? Thanks. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawrence aldrich Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 You can even download freebee sailing vessels that are fully functional with adjustable sail configurations for realism. I've been sailing the HMS Bounty all over the place learning how it was done. Great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hkterry Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 How can I place the car or vessel to the location that I want it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Harmes Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Also try Simviation, Flightsim.com and Avsim.com. You can also find Star Wars and Star Trek vehicles, amongst a lot of others. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrence aldrich Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 How can I place the car or vessel to the location that I want it to be. Same way as you do an aircraft. Only when it loads a car will be on the runway instead of an airplane. Then you just drive anywhere you wish. I've had a couple of cars that you can just take off and fly with.....most don't though.

Also Terry you can use the FSX slew function to move the vehicle to another location quickly. Press Y key, then F3 for up-slow, F4 for up-fast, F2 for hold altitude, F1 for down-fast. Use your joystick to move forward, back and sideways. Also use F5, F7 and F8 to pitch up and down. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Pettichord Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 By the way, hkterry, you can also get some nice airport buses, airport firefighting vehicles, and airport security police cars at most freeware sites. I use Simviation for most of my freeware downloads and have gotten some great airport ground vehicles from that site. The fire trucks even fire a foam spray. Best to you.

tennyson Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I did a Brisbane Bus lines bus with ORBX logo's many years ago, for the release of YBBN. It's over at OzX. Here's the pic: Not sure if it's still compatible with P3D V2.5, but I'll check on that, Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennyson Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Just checked it out in P3D V2.5. It is still as good as the day I painted it, works perfectly in P3D. Here's a few pics of it, at Russ White's magnificent YBBN: You know, I just took that bus for a drive around Brissie airport and the roads are almost identical to as they are now and I think it's real tribute to the talent of these guys when a product is still current 6 years later. If anybody is interested, the original Bus and the Hamaguchi textures are at: http://simviation.com/fs2004misc15.htm Happy Bussing, Guys and Gals, Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripcord Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I guess the shots at YBBN were from FSX and taken some time ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennyson Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 No, today and from P3D V 2.5, but don't tell the ORBX guys.....hahaha Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkterry Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Thanks Frank. In fact we can control vehicles, ships, aircraft and other things like air balloons, birds etc. in air, at sea and on land in any flight sim software. For Orbx scenery projects, they not only concentrated in the airports but also have a very detailed and beautiful surroundings, that is good for such a trail on ground. I found a very interesting video in youtube, BMW driving around Darrington and Bell 47 flying over it. This is one of the example. ;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8wj1C2L8SI Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennyson Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I remember when this came out, Terry. I think it was the official promo for Darrington. If I'm not wrong, I think the BMW is a Hamaguchi creation, too. ORBX were always ahead of the curve when it came to innovation, Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Dodger Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Loaded up the BMW today, lot of fun driving into the nooks and crannies of the ORBX airports. Just shows how much work the developers do 'getting it right'. Thanks for the link. Regards, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been sailing the HMS Bounty all over the place learning how it was done. Great stuff. Agreed - Bounty is amazing especially since I only fly/boat in Orbx scenery. NZ and pnw and others are truly fantastic when seen from the air, and equally or more so from Bounty.............. oh yes, Bounty is free - many thanks to Miloton Shupe and the other dedicated developers who offer it to us lucky simmers.................. howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
