Thx!

For runway lights, on the "KDTW_SSJ_DL.xml", I put "-1.00" on "Alt":

...

    <SimObject Name="KDTW_rwy_lights">
        <Placement Lat="42.214965000052" Lon="-83.3569333333328" Alt="-1.00#AGL" Hdg="00.00"/>
        <Model SimTitle="SSJ_KDTW_LIGHTS_AP">
            <ConditionalVisibility LogicExpression="A|B">
                <Condition ID="A" Variable="MetVisibility" Value="0-5000"/>
                <Condition ID="B" Variable="TimeOfDay" Value="DAWN;DUSK;NIGHT"/>
            </ConditionalVisibility>
        </Model>
    </SimObject>

...

Those lights are old legacy lights. We would need to update those. They look odd to say the least.

Hello all, I am happy to release my GSX profile for this wonderful freeware scenery! Hopefully this makes the experience usable until the full version is released 🙂

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1ixs8eid7ue4vep/AAC9ziyutgFE_RHQ2mDltbGSa?dl=0

Each gate has the appropriate Jetway along with placed ground vehicles to not interfere with scenery objects. Several points:

 - Terminals D and C AFCAD files do NOT match the gate information for the terminal marking's, so, I ignored the AFCAD information and placed jetway markings to match the actual gate number

 - One of the gates in Terminal D doesn't have a jetways (either 21 or 23 as I forgot) due to a duplication in the AFCAD file forcing one of the jetways to teleport on top of the other duplicate on each restart of P3D

 - Terminal C was quite difficult to find suitable jetways for such tight spaces, so several gates may seem awkward (if you edit something which works better, let me know :))

 - Several gates in the ADFCAD for Terminal C were missing, so they don't have jetways

 - The North end of Terminal C has been modeled as still under construction, so I didn't make any jetways for them

 - Please read the given READ ME text file for installation instructions, as it is required to remove the old SODE jetways

 

I hope you all enjoy this, as it took me many hours over the past couple of days with 100+ gates to work on.

Thank you again for the fantastic scenery!!!

 

Also, If anyone has any feedback or edits (either to fix the AFCAD file or GSX profile), they'd be greatly appreciated as this was my first full airport profile in GSX v2

Does this only work with the gsx 2 expansion?  I still use the original and couldn't get it to work.

Amazing piece of scenery, @ShezA

The GSX-L2 scenery config available here really makes the finishing touches. 

Thanks alot to @ShezA for letting me try the scenery and to @akuratsula for the GSX-L2 profile.

Yes, it only works with GSX-L2 expansion.

Absolutely beautiful.

A big thank you to ShezA for sharing this with us....👍

I would also like to thank Bob (w6kd) for the polygon fix, and akuratsula for the GSX L2 configuration...😎

Cool teamwork in getting this polished! 🤝Any chance getting the beta into the Avsim file library or should I still PM for this?

 

Thanks!

Currently, you should PM @ShezA, since (and understandably so) SunSkyJet doesn't want it publicly released. If you're so lucky to obtain it from them, you shouldn't share it either. 

I suspect, that SunSkyJet wants to maintain control over how many are using the scenery, since it isn't finished. They would like to avoid, to be flooded with support requests and complaints about unfinished details etc...

That being said, the scenery is just beautiful (still a mystery to me, that they're giving this away free?! 😮). The GSX-L2 profile adds the finishing touches.

Here you go Shez... First pic shows Bob's orange polygon fix, note the cargo ramp area to the left of RWY 9L, the orange polygon is gone... The next two pics show the jetways at terminal A and D after installing akuratsula's GSX L2 configuration.....

Thanks again for your efforts on this, and your willingness to share it with us...😎
