77S Creswell (Hobby Field) Released

Today, 06:14 AM

Posted by Adrian Lehmann (FSS) in Release Announcements
Two airports for the price of one!

The team which won so much praise for the exceptional detail and modelling at YMMB Moorabbin Airport now turn their attention to the USA. Ken Hall and Greg Jones have an uncanny knack of capturing every nuance of a location and reproducing it faithfully in the simulator. Creswell Airport is also referred to by the locals as Hobby Field, and is a public airport located one mile northeast of the city of Creswell in Lane County, Oregon. The scenery includes a large photoreal area covering the city of Creswell. You'll see every single building and object modelled, and features like the golf course, the Dale Kuni Rd freeway overpass, and animated flags which are affected by wind conditions. If that's not enough Ken Hall has beautifully recreated OR57 Walker Airport as a free bonus airfield, making this scenery package exceptional value and allowing you to enjoy circuits between both airfields at your leisure. Don't pass up on this classic!

CZST Stewart Airport Released

12 May 2012

Posted by Adrian Lehmann (FSS) in Release Announcements
The world's first 2cm/pixel airport!

Even though there is a theoretical ground resolution texture limit in FSX/P3D, Russ White has managed to introduce a new method of building airport terrain in which he can exceed what was thought possible in flight simulation - an insane 2cm per pixel ground resolution, and without any real performance penalty! Revel in the beauty of this amazing location on the fork of a river surrounded by sheer walls of mountains. This breathtakingly picturesque setting is home to an airport of exceptional character, and Russ has interpreted it with wear and tear, rust, grime and the sands of time. There is nothing like CZST Stewart Airport in any simulator and you owe it to yourself to visit this and shake your head in wonder. It really is that good.

  • Insane ground imagery at 2cm per pixel!

ORBX P3D Migrator Tool

05 May 2012

Posted by Ed Correia in Release Announcements
Hello all,

The ORBX Migrator Tool is now ready to download.
This tool is the "Linker" and will link up your ORBX installed addons in FSX to P3D. Also included in this release is the latest ORBXLIBS (Version 120328). As new airports are released, this tool will be updated to to include them.

Please note: We have come across a small issue at PAKT and it's parking positions. There is no problem with the runway starts, but the 2 parking positions are incorrectly placing you underground. We are looking into this issue and hope to have it resolved ASAP.

Installation is easy, unzip and run the installer. No need for FTX Central to be set to anything in particular prior to installing. This can also be installed directly over any previously installed SBSLs.

Any issues, please post here http://www.orbxsyste...®-support-forum

Enjoy!

ORBXLIBS 120328 for P3D are now available

14 Apr 2012

Posted by Ed Correia in Release Announcements
Hello all,

ORBXLIBS now has its own installer for Prepar3D (P3D). As ORBXLIBS gets updated, so will the P3D version.

You can install this even if you have installed any of the released SBSLs. Considering that many people are now migrating over to P3D, it is best that P3D had its own installer for ORBXLIBS. This installer will work in conjunction with the future Migrator Tools that will be released shortly.

Download the new version of the the ORBX Libraries for P3D.
