What Is Orbx Global Base?

Postby LTCSZ » Mon Jan 28, 2019 7:46 pm

I am considering taking the jump into Orbx sceneries for my P3d V4.4...Apparently Global Base is required for all Orbx scenery...Just what does it do, exactly? Almost $100 is a pile of money for me...If I purchase Global Base, will I see any immediate difference in P3d? Is Global Base compatible with Ultimate Terrain or will I have to delete UTX before installing Global Base? I find the Orbx web site a bit confusing as to just where to start, so any advice will be appreciated! Thanks a lot...

If you install ORBX Global you'll see a difference in scenery. Accuracy depends, in general gives more green color to scenes sometimes excessive, for instance are not realistic in my area.

No problem with Ultimate Terrain if you have it.

Take into account that ORBX adds and replaces textures of the sim. Uninstall requires some patience.
