Musketeer 88 Report post #1 Posted June 9 I haven't posted in a while, but I just took AUS v2 for a spin and thought I'd share! I flew YSSY (Sydney) to YCNK (Cessnock) a short flight I've enjoyed doing in the past. While it's hard to be specific without a side-by-side, v2 looks beautiful and it actually feels like the performance has improved slightly if anything, which is a bit weird considering that I would have thought the better scenery might use up more FPS. I'm still working through a short-hop world tour that started in Sydney and is currently in Canada. But it looks like that will have to pause that for a while, because I'm going to need to re-explore Australia now If you look closely, Sydney seems to have fireworks going off (in the middle of the day)! Some shots on route from Sydney to Cessnock over the Central Coast and Hunter Valley The topography and definition of those hills looks very nice and clearly improved from V1 Who needs photo scenery when land class can look this good!

VH-KDK 28,852 Report post #2 Posted June 9 A beautiful REX SAAB, very nice. There was something else I was going to say but it has slipped my mind. Oh that was it. Yes this AU V2 scenery looks fantastic, thanks for showing. I think the fireworks go off when Sydney kick a goal at the SCG, I don't know what they will do with all the left over fireworks at the end of August though! 2 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Musketeer 88 Report post #9 Posted June 9 Thanks all! Had time for one more flight from YCNK to YBTH and it's looking great. Well done to the ORBX team. It's gonna be hard pulling myself away from AUSv2 to fly anywhere else for a little while Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stillwater 9,505 Report post #11 Posted June 9 Nice shots of a nice flight, indeed. For a full impression & comparison with v1 I will need to make my own flights down under, but... 10 hours ago, Musketeer said: I'm still working through a short-hop world tour that started in Sydney and is currently in Canada ... I have got a similar trouble (I am virtually in Europe at the moment). 10 hours ago, Musketeer said: Sydney seems to have fireworks going off (in the middle of the day When I flew Sydney some weeks ago I had the same confusing event. Seems this is a P3D malfunction. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
