Yes, it's here! It was a LOT more work than I've initially thought. But it's done. :) Trees reacting to nature (Half Moon Bay) (please watch in full screen, low framerate is due to video capturing, see info below): Captured on a GTX 780 in X-plane 11. Low framerate is a combination of the capturing process and Reshade running (which looks great so I leave it on). Average framerate breakdown (sliders maxed, except reflections, measured in good weather): no custom airport (default scenery): 40 fps custom airport with no grass: 36 fps custom airport with medium grass: 30 fps custom airport with full grass: 22 fps This can also give you a point to measure against. As you can see, the amount of grass greatly affects performance, this is why the final product will have options ranging from full-to zero, and in between. Strangely enough the trees don't seem to drop the performance, except when you move the free camera close (closer then you would normally be with your aircraft at any point). This is just a raw video showing performance with medium amount of grass (I still get about 5 fps penality due to shadowplay).

/images/notams/notams18/orbx0115/orbx0115.jpgPacific Coast & Bay Fog! Half Moon Bay is a unique airport located on the Pacific Coast inSan Mateo County just south of San Francisco, and just over the rangesfrom KSFO. Being so close to the Bay Area, the airport sees a lot ofGA traffic throughout the year, as well as some air taxiservices. Taking you back to the days of Flight Unlimited II, thespectacular coastline around the airport makes for a truly amazingapproach, and when you land, you'll surely have a great meal waitingfor you at the Three-Zero cafe. /images/notams/notams18/orbx0115/khaf2.jpgDuring the summer months, you may want to brush up on your IFRskills, as the airport is clouded by low lying fog for many days ofthe season, making the approach a little trickier! The airport hasbeen faithfully recreated from imagery taken over multiple visits tothe airport by the developers in the last few years, and is also notfar away from many other Orbx airports, such as KSTS Sonoma County,KMRY Monterey, and KSQL San Carlos, all of which are nearby, as wellas other airports a bit further inland, such as KTVL and KBLU. We hopeyou enjoy our recreation of this iconic airport! /images/notams/notams18/orbx0115/khaf1.jpgKey Features100 sq km+ of 30/60cm photorealStunning coastline approachCustom modeled airport & objectsAdvanced rendering, ambient occlusion and night-lightingBonus helipad on Pillar PointCustom vegetation at airportTextureFlow optimizedHigh detail landmarks and POIsUses latest 3D lighting techDetailed custom static aircraftHigh resolution 5m meshFull suite of Flow technology usedDeveloped by Misha Cajic and Scott Armstrong BUY NOW! /images/notams/notams18/orbx0115/khaf3.jpg
