January 1, 20215 yr Has anyone tried this yet?. https://secure.simmarket.com/zinertek-enhanced-airport-graphics-msfs.phtml Any comments?.

January 1, 20215 yr looks like a good deal if it enhances all airports as stated. My only concern would be conflicts with existing freeware airports (of which many already have upgraded textures) and when Asobo update the sim. Thomas Derbyshire

My only concern would be conflicts with existing freeware airports (of which many already have upgraded textures) and when Asobo update the sim. Good point. It seems that it won't modify the payware airports and those freeware ones with their own textures (at least this is what they say on the product page at SimMarket). My concern is more related to the installation. Will it overwrite the stock textures or will it be installed as an add-on in the Community Folder?.

January 1, 20215 yr I'm sure someone will make a freeware version before too long. Ryzen 5800X3D, Nvidia RTX5080 - 32 Gig DDR4 RAM, 1TB & 2 TB NVME drives - Windows 11 64 bit MSFS 2024 Premium Deluxe Edition Resolution 2560 x 1440 (32 inch curved monitor)
January 2, 20215 yr Zinertek at it again! I must admit, I had similar packs of theirs in FSX, and they were pretty good. There is no doubt the default lines and surfaces do look a bit too fresh in the sim, and these look more 'lived in'.

January 2, 20215 yr I'm thinking mostly textures. bs AMD RYZEN 9 5900X 12 CORE CPU - ZOTAC RTX 3060Ti GPU - NZXT H510i ELITE CASE - EVO M.2 970 500GB DRIVE - 32GB XTREEM 4000 MEM - XPG GOLD 80+ 650 WATT PS - NZXT 280 HYBRID COOLER
January 2, 20215 yr Ok - I will go first, no problem! I bought it. It does go in the community folder and can be simply removed if you don't want it. Also, they say this: - COMPATIBILITY WITH THIRD PARTY ADD-ON AIRPORTS Freeware This product will only enhance third party airports that rely on the default airport textures. Most freeware airports do this, so you will see a lot of your freeware airports enhanced. Payware For the most part payware airports (and a few freeware airports) come with their own custom textures, so you should not see those airports modified or affected in any way. Just off to try it now! Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

January 2, 20215 yr It does look a lot better if the pics are anything to go by. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
January 2, 20215 yr 15 minutes ago, Chock said: It does look a lot better if the pics are anything to go by. Yes they are..but if its going to be repetitive..then there is no value add! Is there an add on that makes each runway unique? If they can't do it, then go away! LOL 🙂 If you can take the runway texture from Google or MS or some other aerial photo and overlay it on each runway, then I'll get it. Replacing the Asosbo default 10-50 runways textures with your own 10-50 runway textures do not add any value. It is still repetitive and I hate reparative runway texture.

January 2, 20215 yr I'm quite excited to see this new addon. For years I would only fly into payware airports, but MSFS changed that. Now it's the scenery within 5 miles of the airport that's appealing. So, this should be a good enhancement as I'm mostly flying into defaults anyway. Curt Branch

Just off to try it now! More interested in default airports with most buildings missing. Try KESN, Easton, Maryland. Parking 1. Anything other than a control tower, a radio beacon, and flat blobs of color where hangars and other structures should be? The flight line should have ten significant hangars. Default has 10 flat blobs.

January 2, 20215 yr 3 minutes ago, Chock said: You can add these yourself in a minute with the scenery editor. What editor? The one in the Developer mode? Started into it and got totally frustrated. I have some experience in ADE and successfully recreated two airports key to me in FSX. But totally bewildered with the mechanisms in MSFS Developer mode.
