Paris - Ile-de-France for AFS2 NOW AVAILABLE!

  • No way will I pay 39.95 EU for Paris scenery when we have a really good freeware one! Tell him he is dreaming!!

    I didn't say it would cost 39.95 euro, I only said the area for P3D costs that much and that it would be a bit much for me if the price for the AFS2 version would be the same. 'He' isn't dreaming yet. ;)

  • Un petit mot en Français pour encourager l’équipe de France VFR, j'ai toujours apprécié vos produits et cela depuis FS9 mais je ne volant maintenant plus qu'en VR j'avais renoncé à les utiliser sur P3D (trop gourmand en ressources système) , La nouvelle de votre venue dans le monde d'Aerofly FS2 est une super nouvelle pour tout les amateurs de vol en réalité virtuelle !

    A little word in French to encourage the French VFR team, I have always appreciated your products and that since FS9

    but I fly now only in VR I had given up using them on P3D (too greedy in system resources),

    The news of your arrival in the world of Aerofly FS2 is great news for all fans of flying in virtual reality!

  • Sieht echt gut aus. :thumbup::thumbup:

    Kommt es auch über Steam. :?:

    Ich würde mich auch freuen wenn sowas mal für Deutschland kommt.:!::!::!::!::)

    Eine Frage an die Entwickler,könnte man das Grün etwas kräftiger ausfallen lassen nicht so Grün/Grau ,wie bei ORBX TrueEarth Netherlands.:?: Danke;)


    Ich werde es auf jeden fall kaufen,Preiß ist mir egal.^^

    I think it's also great news for those who don't use VR because performance in AFS2 will be soooooo much better than in P3D! I doubt if you could run France VFR at extreme settings and still get >100 fps or even >50 fps. Around 20 fps would be more likely (based on my experience with TrueEarth).

  • Maybe reducing the shadows to only ultra would be the better way then flying with 20 fps?

    I was talking about performance in P3D! In AFS2 I get >100 everywhere with the most extreme settings. With TrueEarth in P3D I got a slide show with settings at low and medium: TE in AFS2 is >100 all the way with absolute 100% cultivation and all setting at max. So I expect France VFR to perform a LOT better in AFS2 than in P3D.

  • This is not « only a city »; this is a scenario is very similar to the New York City one with a vast coverage including the full région parisienne, tons of landmarks; dozen of airports with 3 detailed and so on.

    Understood. Though if I were you I wouldn't compare France VFR to the NY DLC because Paris clearly is in another league...! Outside of Manhattan there isn't much to see in NY apart from misplaced trees and badly colored textures. 8o I suspect the Paris scenery will be filled with precisely placed cultivation from edge to edge plus pristine textures. So beware of comparing the two. ;)

  • Hi all,

    a lot of assumptions ... it's normal, but we will try to clarify things as much as possible before the product is released :)

    here are several series of screenshots to better appreciate the highlights of the scenery. Paris is a very very dense area, but not only the city ! all the suburban areas are very dense too, with a lot of large, high and complex buildings, so the 3D procedural technology is everywhere and has to be optimized as much as possible !

    On the 1st screenshots set are some more screens of paris area again... I tried to highlight the 3D rendering of roofs and facades because it is a very important thing compared to simple flat roofs and non-conforming facades.

    On the other views I tried to show the density, the variety and the detail of the suburban areas, with many VFR markers and remarkable baiments. One of the highlights of the scene is that it is of uniform quality throughout its cover.

    On the last screenshots you can have a closer look to the Lognes - LFPL airport, that is one of the three detailed airports provided in the scenery...

  • Sold, too.

    Perhaps some able developer sees a chance to contribute (or perhaps convert) a fitting payware LFPG or LFPO.

    Kind regards, Michael

  • Very nice screenshots of gorgeous real-looking scenery. But a question: while this addon from VFR France is not yet available(?), are these shots from the same scenery addon for P3Dv4? Or do you have the previlege to already have this scenery installed in AFS2?
