On their website description if says seasonal textures will 'come in a later patch' whenever that may be.

Yeah that’s a bit of a strange way of doing things for sure! 🤔🤔 Seems like cutting corners to put it out fast - though I would like to believe it otherwise 😉

Lol no thanks then. Maybe they should’ve waited to release in the spring?

What I see on their Website:

• Automatic season change for vegatation, photobackground and building`s roof
• During winter the building`s roofs will be covered with snow (to come in later patch)
  
  So, there ARE Winter Textures !! Can anyone confirm this ?

Yes there is a special folder with winter textures.

EDIT: I do not find any script, though, which changes textures according to the simulator month. That's how FlyTampa et al. do it, at least.

This looks good. I somehow missed there was a v1 version available for P3D.

As soon as it arrives on Simmarket I will probably purchase this one.

This was the item in the description I was referring to:

• Seasonal textures of background and custom (no default) vegetation for all 4 seasons (to come in later patch)

What is not clear to me here is does the 'later' patch refer to the whole verse, including textures, or 'just' the custom vegetation?
Could someone who already purchased it check if winter textures are working, please?

According to f.skywalkers post they aren't :

'Around the Airport i have snow with Orbx, the Airport is green'

He might not know about the folder with winter textures though.

Understood, but shouldn't they be applied automatically during winter months? Or do you have to select them manually when you want to use them?

That's a valid question. I've seen various options with different developers (e.g. Flytampa have changed from manual to automatic recently).
Not having bought this product (yet), I don't know. Let's hope someone confirms 100%.

There seems to be no configurator for the airport thus no way of easily changing the winter textures. I haven’t seen the winter texture folder but I also didn’t dig into the installation yesterday so let me check it out today. But definitely missing a configurator app for the airport to enable / disable some features. 

Purchased and installed. It is definitely a work in progress. The afcad needs considerable work, gates misaligned and not sized well, hold shorts too far from runway, etc. I get default ground texture bleed through as I slew around, i.e. default snow pops in and out. For $11 for the upgrade it is worth it IF the developer moves quickly to finish his work.

Thank you very much for your report. I appreciate it.
That is what I was suspecting. I'll hold off with the purchase until things get finished.

There is now version 2.01 to fix the sode/jetway problem.
