Apparently Bill Womack has joined with Orbx again. An e-mail this morning gave instructions on moving my purchases from Bill's site over to my Orbx account.
 
I can’t get the transfer form to work. Would be interested if anyone has got it to transfer their licenses successfully.
 
I messed up the first time because I put my installation key in there rather than the purchase ID (basically your invoice number). Once I got that straight it went through fine.
 
Finally did it, thanks. The form asks for Licence ID but it was another number that worked, as you said
 
Just purchased Nantucket and Plum Island, both at 50% off ONLY through today. A great deal!

Excited that Bill has gone back to Orbx. More excited about the upcoming Dallas Love field, and KPDX.

Great news this morning!

Not really needing Dallas Love, but KPDX is one I'm really looking forward to. Spent a fair amount of time on several deployments to Portland putting our F-16's against the F-15's based there. Plenty of time to sight-see and enjoy the area. Also had the FS9 version (Scenery FlightZone 02) that was way ahead of it's time when it was released but never got the update to FSX that it deserved or that was promised.:sorrow:
 
I was a tester on that project. I do believe that it is presently under construction along with Pearson.
 
Still can't find which one is the invoice number. I have the paypal transaction id which did not work as well as an alphanumeric invoice id on the paypal transaction that also did not work. I also do not see any invoice number in the iblueyonder account data.

Edit: OK, I was blind... It was the first number in the iblueyonder account entries for each scenery.
 
Given that it is situated on an Island and Bill has modeled that entire Island and the smaller one adjacent to it. . .probably so.

Not obvious though is it? Considering the form asks for License ID.

I failed to ask. . .do you have any Orbx products?

No I always want to buy PAJN and PAKT sceneries from Orbx but am told that they would not work well without required base packages from Orbx.

And I am hoping that purchase and use of KACK would not require to use base package from Orbx as you have correctly mentioned that the island is in middle of water, not on land mass.

I'm not so sure it's that it wouldn't work at all as much as it wouldn't mesh with whatever ground textures you happen to be using. Basically it would stick out like a sore thumb.
 
If you go to I blue yonder Bill Womacks site you can buy the version for FSX or P3D without the need for orbx at all.

Cheers chris
 
Thanks, Falcom409

Yeah but not half price LOL Orbx is offering this same scenery for 1/2 price this week. Orbx is offering for
16.48 Australian Dollar or 12.62 US Dollar. The Blue Yonder website is offering 25 bucks.

So if you transfer your license, are you supposed to uninstall the original IBY version before installing the ORBX version?

Since all you're actually doing is transferring the information for those sceneries to your Orbx account I wouldn't see where that would affect currently installed scenery.
 
I have the Nantucket purchased under the Just Flight packaging at PC Aviator. All of the free Orbx stuff is a strain on my system
so I hesitate at buying the Plum Island package from them even at half price. But I guess it's less than a movie ticket.

Even though I've turned off / uninstalled all of the Orbx stuff I still have their nightlighting (long strings of bright lights floating along roads)
and green grass at all airfields even in the desert where it used to be sand year round. They really jacked my FSX-SE installation.
