Free runway detail textures & payware project preview

Featured Replies

Love your runway textures!

 

For your airport buildings project - over time I have become a bit disillusioned with high detail airport addons, because you end up feeling restricted on where you fly, and you 'rule out' flying to default airports because they do not compare well to the high detail payware ones....

 

....so I love the idea of an alround upgrade to default FSX airport building and would definitely buy. :smile:

Exactly that. I have few payware airports mostly from Aerosoft, and only for "exotic" locations, like Mallorca X, Corfu X, Santorini X etc, so when you fly from default EDDM to any of these payware exotic locations it is only case when it feels right. Rest of airport in Europe are default, and that default textures are killing me.

Taxiway texture is mine

 

I would LOVE to have your taxiway texture! Is this something you are going to sell later? I would paypal you $5 right now for it. I love it.

Yes, that taxiway texture will be a part of Airport Overhaul X package, so I guess you must be patient for some time until the product is finished. :)

I played today with runway detail textures, wanted to add grooves and stuff.

 

What do you think?

The grooves should go across the runway to aid in drainage of water off to the edges. Also, any chance of making a choice of grey and a light parchment color.

 

I drive runways everyday at work and never see this color grey. I appreciate your work but really want to see a more accurate color. I'll see if I can find a picture of what I mean.

 

Thank you,

Got a couple of real life pics?

No problem, I will rotate it. I can't change the color, they depends on runway texture (in this case from REX), not runway detail texture (shown above). I will make a proper concrete runway texture with proper coloring in later stages.

 

Thanks for a heads up.

Do not make ANY changes without at least three sources of documentation. The same question has come up many places about freeway grooves and why they never go sideways.

Sorry about the double picture. Here's a different angle.

That looks like asphalt but the grooving is correct.
