ORBX FTX Global Vector V1.30: A Comprehensive Overview
This guide covers the ORBX FTX Global Vector V1.30 for Flight Simulator X (FSX), a worldwide scenery upgrade that replaces default vector data with high-fidelity geographical details. 1. Key Features FTX Global Vector transforms the FSX world by adding: FSX ORBX FTX Global Vector V1 30
- Airport Elevation Issues: Because Vector changes the terrain mesh, some third-party or default airports may end up sitting on a plateau or sinking into the ground. ORBX includes an FTX Vector Airport Elevation Converter (AEC) tool to fix this, but users occasionally need to manually adjust settings for specific add-on airports.
- Performance Hit: Because the simulator must render significantly more complex vector data (thousands of extra roads and lines), users with older CPUs may see a slight impact on frame rates. However, V1.30 was optimized better than earlier releases.
- Orbx Central: The installation and activation of V1.30 is managed via Orbx Central, a modern companion app that handles updates and verifies your license.
- Precise Coastlines: Every shoreline globally is corrected.
- River Networks: Major rivers (Amazon, Mississippi, Thames) are widened and flow naturally; minor streams are added.
- Roads & Highways: Freeways, arterials, and local roads follow real-world GPS paths.
- Railways: Train tracks now curve with terrain.
- Power Lines & Wind Farms: Visual VFR landmarks.
- Exclusions: It automatically removes default scenery elements that conflict with new data.
