PNW SP3 OUT

Great idea... Too bad every time i try to log in no matter what i try, i get "username does not exist" even though i've owned the software since practically the day it was released and have managed to log on before and download all the service packs at those times.. This gets frustrating...

I don't think you need to log on to access this page with all the updates -

Will have to download later, as it's very slow right now. Over two hours for 300 mb.

Thanks for the H/U though! :salute:

"Installation:

Important: Before you install make sure you have FTX Central set to "North America"!

Unzip OrbxFTXNABluePNWPatch003.zip and run OrbxFTXNABluePNWPatch003.exe. It should find the correct location of your FSX installation. Once the installation has completed you should start FTX Central again, click on "Default FSX", then Apply, then click on "North America", then Apply again, and exit. Also, if you haven't installed the current ORBX Libraries (101104) yet, please do so."
 
Man, am I ever glad I didn't release my Vancouver Island Scenery project for Orbx to the general public. Looking at the list of new seaplane bases added in PNW SP3 for Vancouver Island and I can see it would have created and incredibly awful mess with a whole slew of duplicate bases. It will be interesting to see if they have modeled their buildings as accurate as I did though!

I am so very disappointed in what I found at Victoria Harbor. Orbx team put next to nothing into it. Some docks, static objects and a hideous rendition of a ship far too big to sail the inner harbor. Beyond that, nothing. Guessing they will sell that area to us someday in glorious FTX style.

This is the second post about your package which you did not release? So what's the deal here?
Perhaps you should show us and it will be interesting to see if you did a better job and if you did upload it.

Hi guys,

Actually, the Victoria area is part of the freeware Victoria Plus package by Jon Patch and yours truly. ORBX didn't want to intrude on that (same with the adjacent Vancouver Plus by FSAddon) because compatibility updates for both add-ons are due out early in the New Year.

Generally speaking it's interesting to watch the exponential increase in expectations for add-ons like these. When the first ORBX Australian regions were released they didn't include any airport enhancements at all and some of the landscape features were quite limited too. Now some people expect custom objects at hundreds of airports and seaplane bases, and probably in cities too ...and all at the same price, of course :icon_lol:

It's all good though because it means that people care. Better this way around than the great collective yawn.

Cheers, Holger

Hello Holger, is it OK to install the freeware Vic+ thats on your site for download? I had removed it during a reinstall of FSX and haven't put it back in yet, just waiting I guess :jump: Oopps, forgot to say I have PNW and PNWFJ installed and now KORS too. Thanks,

See ya, Rockitglider :wavey:
 
Thanks Holger, I'll wait until Vic+ is compatible then. I spent a few days at the Empress this summer. The harbor was absolutely fascinating.

I'm not Holger, but I can tell you that the freeware Victoria+ is not completely compatible with Orbx PNW without some modifications.

I can't release the scenery because I have fully integrated it with a much modified Victoria+, modified Ken Peters Qualicum Beach & Nanaimo-Collishaw Airports and modified Don Grovestine Canadian Forces Base Comox & Victoria International Airports.
