I have a problem with rabbits parking on the stand at the newly updated Dublin airport!
Actually they look like hare’s. They are very large, must be something in the Irish grass!
Does MK studios have a wicked sense of humour? I found an article stating that rabbits are being sucked into engines at Dublin airport!!!
THERE IS A SECOND UPDATE AVAILABLE FOR THIS SCENERY TODAY, perhaps it removes the rabbit infestation?
I am still seeing giant ‘mega’ bunnies at MK Studios v2 Dublin Airport! I updated the airport today and the mega bunnies are still appearing! This is going to drive me ‘hopping’ mad.
Look at the ground crew starring at the bunnies, they could have that guy for dinner, they are so large. I would be running in the opposite direction, if I saw bunnies that large!
ORBX KBUR V2 free upgrade, totally redone. We shouldn’t have to pay for a redo. It implies either mistakes, inferior quality, or a rush to the post cash grab with V1
Someone has to pay for the giant Irish mega bunnies! In the case of Dublin, I don’t believe this infers inferior quality in their first incarnation of Dublin. I can see that a huge amount of extra work has gone into the new version with the addition of a new runway and fresh remodelling and added detail and added mega bunnies, (if they are being generated by this scenery). It’s a new airport. Personally, I believe the upgrade is well worth the money in this case. To put it in to perspective the upgrade to version 2, is the cost of 2-3 barista made coffee’s! Great value for a new airport. I think the developers have a right to earn their living, the cost of living has risen dramatically in these difficult times, we cannot expect developers not to move and adapt to the present economic downturn. We need to keep them employed so they can make more sceneries, especially if they are as good as this one!
I second that. There are many references to ‘developer greed’ in these forums but these guys’ time does not come for free. If you have a problem paying again for DUB, you have the option of not upgrading. It’s possibly a little expensive for an upgrade but you are getting what certainly appears to be a completely new airport. That some devs choose not to charge is testament to THEIR generosity and love for what they do, rather than an indictment of those who do choose to charge for their surplus time.
It’s certainly not as cheeky as some of Captain Sm’s tactics!
If someone is advertising something along the lines of 'this is great. But in future buy the next version ‘cos it’ll be even greater’ they ain’t getting any money from me.
At the very least they should’ve added the other runway to the previous version. If they kept it basic it would’ve been no more than a few hours of work.
I’m not saying devs should always charge. I’m just saying it’s no big deal if they do. As consumers, we have the option to vote with our wallets.
It also depends on how much of an upgrade we’re talking. But by the look of DUB v2, it’s not insignificant. That said, I do think the cost to existing owners is a little steep — but again, no one’s making us buy.
Exactly this. They could also have likely done this faster and had the new runway released on older version (FOC) last year when it opened, rather than keep us all waiting with a useless airport for 6 months.
This would not have stopped them releasing V2 6 months later.
If we want to update our cell phones or TV etc., we don’t get one/another for free because we have an older model, (I wish we did). We have to buy a new model, if we are lucky we might get a trade-in that’s not worth much. We get a brand new model of an airport, (because it is software) we treat it differently and expect it for free even though a ton of expertise clever design and time has gone into producing it. All the buildings at MK Studios, Dublin v2 are built again from the ground-up with a ton more detail. Some terminal interiors are included too, (this is something I personally can do without). This is great for screenshots and videos, probably not for performance.
ORBX just released EGLC V2 and I was ready to boycott like I have MK, but they’ve managed to read the room so much better than MK and released it with a 73% discount to those who bought the original!
MK could learn a thing or two from ORBX instead of profiteering!
No discount available for marketplace bought EGLC though. Also EGLC V2 has no interiors or animated docklands rail which is a shame. Not sure it was worth the full price upgrade for me. The V2 label is questionable, as is the upgrade fee imo. There may have been work done, but no interiors at all in a msfs airport in 2023?
it’s not worth the full price if you already have V1. V2 has crisper textures and seems quite well optimized. I think they’ve sacrificed some detail for the optimization which must be difficult in London. I would have liked an animated DLR train. Have you tried the ORBX forums to see if there’s a way through Marketplace?
I ditched it for uk2000 version of eglc which has animated railway and some interiors. Seems fine performance wise. Still not as nice as Id have expected, but better than v2 orbx.
