A great example of the potential it has...flying the 25 visual into KHHR and lo and behold...a McDonalds! I know where I am grabbing a bite when I park

you can add the building just by drawing the points and creating the outline of it if you don't know what type of building it is you can just call it a generic building and it will make a generic building. I don't know the area at all as I live in Atlanta Georgia but you can look at aerial photograp...

Never tried it, can you explain a bit more about it? Sure Keith!! So how openstreeetmap.org works is like this…… You sign up for a free account. It only takes a few minutes. Once you are signed up when you are viewing the map there will be a button at the top called “edit” with a little arrow drop ...

If we can get more people on board we can really create southern California and make it as lifelike as possible. Openstreetmap is quite addicting because any changes you make, you can see the next day when you download the new pbf file for that state. Its really cool to see the buildings you outline...

ok i think I am a bit confused. I am super interested in this but I can't seem to find exactly how this all works. How do you use this data in xplane? And how do you update it. Sorry, I'm a newbie to xplane having finally forced myself from FSX and loving XP10. Thanks I'd say for now just get used ...

Yes. Just follow that quickstart guide. You need to download the world2xplane beta program. And then download the state pbf file from the geofabrik site listed in the quickstart tutorial. You would go to north America then california. Then download the pbf. Also right click and save the poly exclusi...

sure I would love to help you out. You can edit the scenery if you sign up on openstreetmap and then it updates nightly around 2100 Zulu. So the updates you made can go in the next day and you can download the osm pbf for your state the next day and it will have the updates. See below for a screensh...

I am building a KCNO as we speak. Its based on the airport layout and diagrams. Once I get it done, I will send you the file.

I have win7 and xplane 10 and it works fine on mine. I notice that if one pilot starts talking when another talks they will stop talking and let the other guy go. I have noticed a huge improvement though. Being able to hear the other pilots voices help with the immersion too. Its nice to hear more t...

Just thought I would let you guys know im addicted to Openstreetmap!! I was playing around with it yesterday around the KSNA area adding buildings, parking, and roadways that are on the map and today the geofabrik site had all my edits in there. I encourage those XPlane users who fly on PE to go int...
