I own it,  but I'm running REX currently so I don't have much input right now.'

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will this product modify or affect my payware airports?

For the most part, payware airports come with their own custom airport textures and to a lesser extent some freeware airports as well. Therefore, these airports will NOT be affected by our product.

Are these new enhanced textures installed over the default MSFS textures or are they installed as an add-on in the Community Folder?

The enhanced textures are installed as an add-on in the Community folder. You can at any time revert back to the default airport textures by removing our add-on from the Community folder.

Still no improvement for Grass Strips? Would've liked that, that's one of the reasons I've been holding off this mod.

The other is I think better looking textures should be default in the Sim, but I could be waiting until 2035 before Asobo get around to it...!

The Zinertek website says this update came out on 14th, I did have an update for the product in the content manager a week or 2 ago, so it may already be out on there.

Yeah it is. The Icon says 3.0 plus the version info

It's there in Content manager, updates available. 

Airport Enhancements in MSFS include:

Tad old but OK I had RexTex and was kinda disappointed with it and got Zinertek and there's one thing they left out in the enhancements since it's that time of the year and that's the Snow. The snow covered textures are really nice in my opinion, overall Zinertek v3 wins with Accuseason.

I use Bifans season and I have plenty of snow. 

 

Thank you. Will dl the update tomorrow …

I saw this  thread and wasted 10 minutes looking for the update, only to realize the thread is almost a half year old. 

I just checked my official folder and it seems that it updated automatically on the 22nd of July.
