Popular scenery developer, Orbx have taken to their forums to announce their newest landmark package coming to Microsoft Flight Simulator. This time, they’re visiting the capital of France with Paris.

Made by Tony Wroblewski and the rest of the TrueEarth team at Orbx, the developers have created “200 Points of Interest (POI) with 15 high-detail POIs. These carefully selected hero-asset POIs allow you to get up close and explore, whilst still maintaining excellent performance across the city.”

According to the developer, the “200 medium-detail POIs are the perfect balance between quality and performance. They allow us to capture the essence of the city’s unique architecture, without impacting performance.”

Along with the custom buildings and objects, the TrueEarth team has refined the night lighting and has included custom terraforming and custom ortho's within the city. 

A feature list was also provided by the developers, highlighting the work gone into the scenery and providing an insight on some of the high-detailed POI’s that will be included. You can view this feature list below.

• 15 high-detail custom landmarks including Notre Dame, Panthéon, The Centre Pompidou, École Militaire, and Église Saint-Sulpice
• 200 medium-detail custom landmarks, balancing quality and performance
• External night lighting for all default landmark objects, including Tour Eiffel, Arc de Triomphe, Louvre, Sacre Coeur, and Grand Palaise
• Extensive terraforming across the coverage area, enhancing how our custom landmarks sit within the simulator’s terrain
• Flattening of the Seine River and correcting riverbank heights
• Custom orthoimagery patches across the city to cover the blurred-out military areas in the default simulator

Orbx is hoping to release the scenery in January and has also stated that more Landmarks products will be revealed for Microsoft Flight Simulator in the near future.
