Experience with FTX OpenLC EU

as long as you own FTX global, there shouldnt be a problem, I struggle to fault it, at times the tiles seem out of place, but I live on the other side of the world
one thing about FTX they are all about eye candy, and the package doesnt fail, as for 100% accuracy, I dont know and I dare say its not 100% spot on, I only say this as they cant even get their own home country right, Im not sure how they can cover several
as for impact in v4, i have seen none thus far, im one that would be considered a non FTX fan however from someone who doesnt know the region like i know my own it does bring it to life and I fairly openly say 8 out of 10 from me
FTX Global Base/OpenLC Europe/Global Vector/Trees. Average around 40 fps down to around 30 over big cities. (i7-4960X@3.60GHz;16GBRAM;GTX1070;W7/64Pro; 2560x1600@30"). Certainly not 100% accurate of course but the next best thing i guess. Re my own neck of the woods Netherlands, we are a land of water and its all there but the ground textures don't play along. Overall here too it's next best to photoreal.
Since you're in Denmark here's a bit of Kopenhagen :
Off from Roskilde heading north-west:
The Netherlands - Noord Holland:
Somewhere over Luxembourg :
It's long live Orbx/FTX in my flightsim book but big fan of France VFR as well and waiting for P3Dv4 compatible Austria Pro. ;-)
Cheers,
Jan

That´s right. It is a huge improvement and worth every cent but - of course - not 100 % accurate (how would they sell regions in that case !). I would not fly without ORBX/FTX for sure!

I would also highly recommend all the Global products including Open LC. They bring a huge improvement to vast areas, for what can be considered great value, especially right now during their sale. I would recommend the Global products (Base, Vector, Open LC) to all types of flyers too, from GA to Tubeliner pilots.

I totally recommend it! 
Hi Montie
I can see that you are located in Denmark. If you want a Landclass for Denmark, this is a MUST have: http://www.jkelloggs.dk/scenery/denmarkmapx
It is almost 100 procent correct with coastlines and cities in Denmark. And you can use it for very precise vfr navigation.
Be sure you place it above FTX scenery in the scenery library.
I also recommend this site: http://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx/denmark.html
In particular "Denmark scenery 1.4". You can download it here: http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=172569
I have not tested all of the sceneries on that page. But as they are for FSX, I believe they should work in P3D V4.
But be cautious, if they have installers.
I think I would create a dummy FSX file, and install in that first. And then transfer it manually to the Addons in P3D.
Or if you prefer to use the more sophisticated system with the xml. files
