A surprise announcement for KRAL Riverside

[Susu986 76]

Hey Guys,

Some of you might have seen some development shots for my KRAL Riverside scenery for X-plane around the internet. The addon is development since late 2017, and I want to make it one of the coolest payware airports out there. Compared to my previous KHAF, I've upped graphical fidelity to be on par with the todays' leading addons, and I've introduced a very work-intensive 3D feel grass, and expert color matching as well. However, there is more than that - the airport will introduce many cool features, like a live airport, where the amount of parked cars and people are based on the time of day, animated birds, customizable hangar, and my most recent, and biggest announcement yet to date - ONE of the surprise features and the title of this post: a complete rendition of a virtual Riverside Airshow! As far as I nowl, this is the first time that a payware airport addon would deliver a fully developed airshow to any home simulator! With over 1100 individual 3D figures, 25+ interesting aircraft, dozens of exhibitors, an animated Helldiver simulator, and an overflying drone, this is a certain treat! The Airshow model is built into the airport, you'll have to set X-plane's date to July 11, to activate it - on any other day, your airport will look 'normal'. The airport itself is not completely done yet, this is my first post regarding KRAL here an Avsim, but there will be more, and of course, everyone will be notified about the release as well. Let me share some shots here, both with and without the airshow, please enjoy! 🙂

Amazing. I paid a fortune on the scenery black market for your L.A. landmarks, can't wait for the full package!

Looks like I have to keep tighter controls over who do I entrust and share Betas with 🙂

Anyway, it won't be too long now. The airport is done, I'm working on the surprise features now, the Airshow was not the only one.

I haven't seen any meaningful impact to FPS on a GTX 1080 - which is a great sign!

..perfect /

 

My home base is KSNA, just around the corner, I think this Airport which I fly (on RW as a student Pilot) looks boring, so your scenery addon can bring some flavor

I think you'll love this, and hopefully this one will be your second home base. It even has a hangar, where you can fit your own poster (replacing the flag) 🙂
