HU: FTX AU SP4 for P3Dv2 is out

A heads-up: FTX Australia now has a genuine P3Dv2 installer. This time only for those who have downloaded AU SP4 or any single AU region from FSS. So if you only have e.g. AU Gold you get the other regions for free.
Those with DVD still have to wait for a migrator tool.

Those who have single regions: just "buy" AU SP4 from the FSS store for 0.-- AUD and download the 4.43 GB.
Those who have AU SP4: look under "my account"

Australia is the only OrbX region which did not come with a mesh. Therefore there is a "Holgermesh" on their freeware site. This now also comes with a triple installer here: http://myftx.com/orbxfreeware/FTXAUHOLGERMESH100_SP3.zip
Note that this is a 76m mesh, so if you have a mesh better than this (FSGenesis, FSGlobal) you won't need this.

The Australian airports aren't P3Dv2-ready yet, since they still have problems with their "Objectflow" dll which they got from an external coder.
As OzX and Ant's airports don't use this I'll install them via Estonia migrator. :)

Edit: You'll need OrbXLibs for P3DV2 which is different from the normal FSX/P3Dv1 one. see here: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/72010-orbxlibs-for-p3dv2/?p=660461

Edit2: Graham Ecclestone has converted the first freeware airport using the P3Dv2 SDK. You can get Lilydale here: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/72045-lilydalecoldstream-airports-v20-for-p3d-v2/?p=660823
