I’m aiming for level ‘Mariana Trench’ deepness if at all possible, in that I want to be able to find the SKU on a fuse and then find the factory where they made them.
I’m basically aiming for something to enjoy the scenery without being at FL340, so essentially just a really good X-Plane aircraft that costs money.
EDIT: Plus VR only, because I like to squint a lot.
VSkyLabs entire lineup as far as I know is VR ready or has specifically been upgraded to VR ready. Their Tecnam P2006T is really nice and comes in both analogue and G1000 versions:
The Hawk is great for low level… flying the Mach Loop is a blast in VR. .
Looking at a map of the UK, I am not sure the loop will be included in this package. I saw someone post screenshots on Facebook of Birmingham, but I would guess if it is there, the loop will be right at the northern boundary.
Ok, I’ve got some gifts coming my way. That Tecnam P2006T looks nice until Carenado’s Citation comes out. I’ll probably get the Hawk as well, although worried that the Welsh mountains will not be in the ‘South England’ scenery and can’t find a map of what it supplies
Looks like it takes a while to install and process, plus found this froogle advice on if the installer gets the layers wrong…
Warning from froogle:
OK Panic Over!
Earlier I posted screenshots of Orbx’s new TrueEarth GB South and pointed out how awful it looked (it did).
Turns out that they have an installer problem. If you buy the product and find it looks utter crap, go into your x-plane custom scenery scenery_packs.ini file and make sure that the order for the new stuff is …TrueEarth_Custom then TrueEarth_Overlay then TrueEarth_Orthos.
IF you do that then the new Orbx scenery looks every bit as stunning as it is supposed to be.
Man, this video shows off the London area. Looks pretty cool.
I was thinking of passing on the UK scenery, as that scenery, in general, doesn’t have a great interest for me. Looking at this video though…hmmm Would be getting it for p3d when it comes out. But dang, is that plane in this video standard in x-plane? Sounds/looks great.
That does look really nice. I am rebuilding my X-Plane stuff and am still keen on this. It seems like it’s a 27 GB download that then expands out in about 2 hours to a 120 GB install size. Eek.
