September 3, 20178 yr Commercial Member Note: This update was actually released on some stores about 3 months ago but I delayed informing the community until I was sure it had become available on all stores. Check out the launch trailer: The update includes some bug fixes to make the scenery compatible with X-Plane 11 as well as some improvements, including: X-Plane 11 ground service vehicles; ramp starts that work with the 'Draw Parked Aircraft' feature; full X-Life compatibility; new textures for the passenger boarding bridges; and the ability to turn volumetric grass, parked cars and streetlights on/off to optimize performance. The update should be available for free to owners of the X-Plane 10 version of the scenery. New feature list: 10 cm/pixel aerial ortho imagery covering the entire airport (approx. 8.41 sq. km) 1 cm/pixel custom ground detail/markings True-to-life pavement, not repetitive textures Never-before-done, hand-placed pavement seams covering the entire airport apron, runway and taxiways Baked-in, ray-traced ambient occlusion on all major buildings Baked-in, ray-traced night illumination on the airport terminal building Uses advanced X-Plane features such as 3D spill lights Accurate building heights, measured using LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) elevation data Designed using XPlane 11-native methods for maximum performance Animated jet bridges and marshallers at all gates (using the freely available AutoGate plugin by Jonathan Harris)* Complete taxiway network for use by ATC and AI aircraft Fully compatible with the X-Life plugin by JARDesign* Works with the ‘Draw Parked Aircraft’ feature introduced in X-Plane 10.50 Makes full use of the new ground service vehicles introduced in XPlane 11 Hundreds of hand-placed objects such as parked cars and streetlights Volumetric grass Animated road traffic Volumetric grass, parked cars and streetlights can be individually turned on/off to optimize performance* *read the user manual for instructions New Screenshots (click on each screenshot to view it in full 1920 x 1080 pixels):
