April 10, 20215 yr I have v1 of this airport package installed in P3Dv4.5HF2, and it is superb. However, I have been considering upgrading to v2. Can anyone tell me how much of an improvement this is over v1? I assume that v2 has dynamic lighting, but I am curious to know whether more of the city of Copenhagen is modelled. I think that there is a section of Amager Island (the north east tip) which is not included in the v1 package, so I would like to know if this has been added. I am guessing that all of the textures have been upgraded to PBR status, but I would welcome feedback regarding how much better the airport looks compared to v1 (considering that my existing scenery looks very good already).

April 10, 20215 yr I feel that for the upgrade price ($12.99) offered by FlyTampa it is very much worth it. I can't say much about the modelling of Copenhagen itself unfortunately as I mostly tend to fly IFR, but insofar as the airport itself is concerned the PBR textures & dynamic really do make a lot of difference in making the scenery look a lot nicer. There is also support for SODE Jetways which I always consider a big plus on any P3D Scenery. And though I can't confirm this I do feel like the performance is actually improved relative to the old version as well, as I find a lot of older sceneries in 4.5 tend to have choppy framerates. CPH v2 is certainly one of the best looking airports I currently have. It isn't an essential upgrade per-se but I think the upgrade price is low-enough that it's worth it for all the visual improvements. PUT In the UK. AMD Ryzen 5 5600x & Radeon RX6700XT.

April 10, 20215 yr Same here, I also don't notice Copenhagen city a lot. But on the entire airport ground and building textures have been improved. Terminal expansion and Pier C remodelled, SODE VDGS added and all this at acceptable performance. This is certainly one of the best Airports ever made, well worth the small upgrade price. 1.

April 11, 20215 yr Personally I don't regret having made the upgrade, but I will say that I am little bit disappointed that the scenery still does not reflect the actual state of the real airport. I last traveled through CPH in September 2019, and the aircraft I flew on was parked at parking position E36. That one, and the adjacent positions, are still very much a building site in the scenery. Which wasn't released until April or May 2020. It is still a very good scenery though, and who knows, maybe another update is coming at some point.
