A mid-size airport for charters, ambulance flights and GA
FSX. And... Orbx again. But this time, it's about an airport project that had been planned a long time ago in the road map. The australian airport of Essendon (YMEN), in Melbourne is "not very far from beta build" according to John Venema. Here are the first previews.
FSX. Orbx has released his new Lancair V 1.2 patch, improving the aircraft in many aspects ; a windshield rain effect, new volumetric 3D landing lights, a new passenger, some updates on the external visual model and a full batch of small instruments upgrades.
FSX. Orbx has unveiled yesterday two dozen of pictures from his upcoming Central Rocky Mountains product. If i get it right, this will include a large part of Idaho (Boise, McCall) and the remaining strip in Washington and Oregon.
FSX. Cushman is the 7th Orbx payware scenery in Washington state, USA. These products need NA Blue Pacific Northwest (like a basic layer) but they represent today the finest quality in simulation when its about depicting the nature and life around airfields../..
FSX. Announced this morning, freeware developers of OZx will join - reintegrate - Orbx development team. Two advantages : they will have access to Orbx libraries and imagery plus the technical resources of the payware development team. Second, talented OZx developers will have the opportunity to develop their first payware. Officially, OZx team will continue to work autonomously../.
Orbx, the australian designer, is releasing new pictures of his next addon, the fictional Cushman Meadows. This scenery has a story and if you are in this business, you might want to hear Bill Womacks telling about it../..
A couple of days ago, totally neglected by news mag and blogs, FTX Full Terrain Orbx updated his Bathurst scenery project. Bathurst will be a typical australian scenery, with the Bathurst airport (YBTH) and... an incredible racing circuit around Mount Panorama.
Orbx is working on a new extension area for FTX Pacific Northwest (PNW). The covered area is in north-west of Olympia and 60 km from Tacoma airport. The scenery will include Cushman meadows, lake Cushman and the fictionnal small airfield of Cushman meadows (KCMW).
A new video from Orbx and PMDG has been published yesterday, showing perfect interaction between PeopleFlow and the B-737 NGX. Behind this video, a message : you are seeing what is the summum of the art in FSX. Anyway, a big leap for simmers. Updated / Responding to a question on his forum, John Venema (Orbx) said something important : until now, PeopleFlow are not able to interact with any users aircrafts. The frames we have been showing on videos need specific development each time. I suppose that Orbx will develop some basics operations for gate arrival and pushback. PeopleFlow can also be used around static aircrafts.
