NZFF

I've been splashing out some of the hard earned stuff for a while on addons for FSX and every time I am impressed with the improvements in the sim experience, but it wasn't untill I recently purchased RealNZ Nelson and I was steering at a couple of really ugly AI aircraft with there blue and red stripes that I realised that something was missing.
I did some searching, asked some questions ansd settled on the free Orbix addon, and what a difference straight away the airports and skies are filled with very good quality AI aircraft that are seen in the NZ and AU region, suits me great as I only fly around NZ and mainly the Marlborough area. I have spent a big chunk of the day flying around different airports amazed at the AI aircraft I am seeing. The following shots were taken while flying from Ohakea to Wellington





















A very pleasing addon

See .. It really dose get in , Looks Fantastic

Thanks for the endorsement Low glow, looking forward to including this with my fresh install on my new system...

Mmm that a KC135 with the pair of Hornets at Ohakea?
New Zealand: the independent seventh state of Australia...

Uncle Hevey of ORBX , Well I don't no .. you stand on top off New Zealand - Mister MC ... I would guarantee you cannot see that little Island out to the West and if you could its so damn small .... so Who's bigger now

Easy come, easy go...

Anyway, great that NZ gets attention in the FS world.

Notice they are returning to the Waikato , Hamilton .. FS world , thats what happens when Mike builds ya a great scenery .. they all want to flock back and see it for themselfs

I had an email from Graham Eccleston the author of the Orbx AI pack, growsing about having sport at their expense...particularly the Hornets and 135 are not his, but how was I to know: this is a thread called Orbx FTX AI!

My comments are really quite lighthearted, and I should know better, because I have offended many in the past in the same way.
Perhaps I should attach a permanent smiley to all posts.
Anyway, there is no umbrage here, and I'm sure everyone is delighted that Orbx/FTX has taken the trouble to put something together for the FSX crowd.

I always liked what Rob Muldoon said about the mass exodus..." it raises the average IQ of both countries."

Sorry thats not AI, its static scenery objects I placed when we had a the visiting Hornets that were been delivered to Australia.(and the RAAF F11's as well)

That scenery did come with a AI skyhawk package that populates the base. Otherwise a must have is Charls RNZAF AI package which works fine in FSX with a little tweaking and WOAI RNZAF package.

Speaking of the Skyhawks, this feature seems to have stoped working.
Do you remember when I had that problem with strange textures posted elsewhere on this forum. Since I have done a full reload of FSX to solve the texture problem, when I reinstalled Ohakea the skyhawks have not been back.
Any Ideas on how to fix this I loved watching them screaming around.
