![]() ![]() Read the announcement for more details on this new scenery release. Look for Orbx TrueEarth US Florida to arrive sometime in January 2020. I’m not sure what the future is for scenery developers with what Microsoft is planning for Flight Simulator but in the meantime this is looking like a typically high quality release that we’ve come to expect from Orbx. It’s great to see Orbx doing some great follow-up’s to their past efforts on X-Plane 11, it’s also great to see them move to the east coast of North America, and I think this will do well for them. ![]() Superb night lighting for all 3D POI models and cityscapes Flight plan departing from KCID - Eastern Iowa, arriving at KEYW - Key West Intl.Hand-placed and custom modelled landmarks placed throughout the scenery such as bridges, skyscrapers, castles, piers, and monuments.Nearly 1,000 custom-modelled 3D POIs including Cape Canaveral, Orlando theme parks, major resorts and hotels, stadiums, bridges and much more!.Accurate building shapes to precisely match the ortho imagery footprints.Exclusive ultra-HD Cityscape Miami accurately bringing this vibrant city to life.Key cities include Miami, Orlando, Jacksonville, Tampa, Fort Lauderdale and beyond.Beautifully crafted watermasking along the hundreds of miles of coastline.Stunning orthoimagery for the whole of Florida offering stunning views across the varied landscape including cities, beaches and Everglades National Park.Miles) of crisp USGS and NAIP sourced imagery Here are some of the key features as advertised: The Pro-Use USB Keys unlock all the features listed above and take you out. Orbx has spent a lot of time making sure that Miami has plenty of detail with lots of points of interest, they have also tweaked their autogen building system to make sure that building roof colours match (something they are calling TrueColour). Here is how it works: Ordering this Professional-Use USB Key gets you everything you need to install and use X-Plane 11, including the X-Plane 11 digital key that allows you to download X-Plane, including all global scenery, and take you out of (time-limited) demo mode. North to south, Orbx is covering essentially the entire state of Florida right down to the keys and some of the most southern points in the continental United States. Although I’m sure my suggestion had very little to do with their product planning, what I do think is key is that Orbx is expanding their TrueEarth line to an area that seems highly desired by fans of civil aviation on the X-Plane platform. Back in June at FS Expo 2019, I briefly talked with the folks at Orbx and suggested that some east coast scenery packages would probably be well received and after working their way up and down the west coast, Orbx TrueEarth US is now turning their sights on Florida.
