Orbx Sale throughout May 2016

Post by Paul K »

From today until June 1st, 38% off everything other than products released after April 10th this year; I think that means only KTEX Telluride airport will remain at full price.

I'm pretty sure all their airports and regions now have installers for P3Dv3, though it's worth checking before buying. Might pick up Canberra Cityscape to go with the airport, which I bought earlier this year. :)

:lol: Well, this sale announcement has certainly ignited feverish excitement, so I better add that all Orbx products are going up in price from 15th June.

I always dream of getting PAJN and PAKT sceneries but I do not want to buy Orbx land package out of fear that it will be memory resource extensive and I am told that PAJN and PAKT cannot run well without ORBX land package. :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

I just ordered the Northern California Regional to try it out. My biggest fear is that it will be a never ending money hole. Did a quick look at the PANJ and PAKT descriptions and they do say they require ORBX regional packages, and they each require a different one. I wish there was some way to just pay them once and get everything.

Memory hog and a Money pit, FTX is all these things. But it does transform FSX/P3D. and with judicious use of a freeware add-on like SceneryConfigEditor v1.17 and VAS monitor, OOM can be virtually eliminated.

I think it's true to say that ALL ORBX airports are designed to work with their area scenery Tom. You can buy it yes, but at your own risk. Should it not work.. you can't really expect your money back. If you have FTX England.. no problem.

I got both the global base and the global vector, look good but global vector was a real frame rate killer, and they make it real hard to un-install it. I finally managed to delete the files and remove from the scenery.cfg file but the ftx control panel still thinks it's installed.
