There is a scenery for the city of St Louis on the org, I guess you guys have to check it out. Even Microsoft did not include every landmark in every city in Ms fs. But the scenery system in X-plane is open to third party to improve further.

Dellanie: Regarding your post, I fly virtual air taxi into Lambert. Every time there is an upgrade, St. Louis gets bigger. I understand costs, etc. The shape of the buildings has changed also. Huge change since XP 11 came out. It looks so close to the real city. Thank you Laminar for providing me the ultralight. I have had more fun, and laughs flying around St Louis in it.

I understand what you are saying, however the arch in Missouri is a major landmark and I don’t think I’m the only one who feels this way. I’m not complaining, trust me, I love this sim and support it 100%. I know a line needs to be drawn on landmarks and what is included or added. However, how much overhead could it endure to include the arch of Missouri. I have to agree with my uncle.

I agree with my uncle. That is the most iconic site for the state of Missouri and it would be really nice to see that. I stated using X-Plane 11 a few months back and I love it. The software is well written and the scenery is breathtaking. The simulation of flights are just as stunning. Keep up the great work everyone! -Orlando013

Laminar are not going to be landmarks to that level of detail. I believe the plan is to hit the major “hub” regions with a few local art assets e.g. London, New York, LA, Chicago etc. Adding more assets = more overhead costs for the sim.

Personally, I think it might be more productive adding more continental autogen. We’re still lacking for Asia, Africa, South America and Australasia, as those areas are rather dry with current autogen and osm data

Any chance? Thanks.

Right – as I made the video, the panel still had that unused button. But note how I start the video explaining you should really have the disconnect function on a joystick button. Then for the rest of the video, you will see that I never touch that unused button because it has no function. It was removed from the 3d model to correspond to the real panel shortly thereafter.

Yes – this is by design – I’ll write a separate post.

Philipp – I could not post the copied picture here, but the video model has the AP button – unless there is a new video that I have missed. I have a button programmed and am using that. Am I missing something?

Thanks for your reply, Philipp.
But i’d checked your video from 25.10.2018 before i sent my post. But the S-Tec in your video has an AP – Button (in total 7 Buttons and one dial for v/s).
And, i’d checked every x-plane manuals i can get including the online-manual. And there is no picture where the panel is depict without AP-Button.
But you are right! The original S-Tec has no AP-Button.
So i will look for an approbriate manual to deal with the new s-tec AP.

Sorry for my post. I know, this is not a forum to discuss about any things. But i thought, it’s a special v11.30 issue.
