Merry Christmas everyone! Here's your little gift from all of us at Orbx -

BOB!
He's had a few birth pains over the past week as we've wrestled with the black science of the FSX aircraft dynamics to get him to behave like something resembling human motion. Anyway, he's now ready for you to take on leisurely strolls through our airports.

Tip #1 - Take a walk around Tamworth Airport - it's an amazing experience!
Tip #2 - Want a 'noiser' or more hectic ambient soundtrack as you walk? Just swap the 1.wav and 2.wav files in SimObjects\BOB\Sound and you will hear a LOT more ambient noises and city life.
Tip #3 - Want some fun on the docks? Hervey Bay Marina is so detailed it's like being there

Enjoy!

Thanks JayKae. BOB is a real charmer. He's going to make all those terrific airports and detailed sceneries a real treat.

Gotta learn how to walk all over again.
(Note to self...turn off crashes! :redface:)

Best of the Holidays to everyone involved. Thanks so very much.

BoB is happy and I like that. Thanks for this nice gift to check out my local airports as well as the many I hope to download this year. Very easy to use and hey, I caught a pic of BOB or at least his shadow. Reminds of the movie " The Day The Earth Stood Still".

Thanks again!!

Took a walk arounf Sitka. Moseyed down by the water to watch the boats float/sail by, and waiting for a amphibian to land. Nice.
 
Thanks, that's a really nice item. I used it with FSX AI Formation Toys - Version 4 to get a favourite plane up and flying around, then went for a nice long walk on the beach near Plum Island and watched the airplane come flying by as it did its orbits.

:)

I bumped up my AI percentage just to give Bob something to do. :icon_lol: A cool add-on. Thanks Orbx! :salute:

Oh. Great. I spent a big chunk of last night barely texturing the underside of a lich gate arch, because no-one would ever see it and now you do this to me? :d

I shall definitely be grabbing this later. Sounds fun! :)
 
AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!! I've been looking forward to this wondeful little add-on so much, and now it's here I can't use it, becasue my FSX is broken!
 
Hi! It is fantastic! :applause::applause::applause:
Only one question: it is possible walk "on the water"? :running:
It will be very useful...

Thanks again!
