September 30, 20223 yr Author Version 0.2.0 is just hours from release, being released within approximately 2 hours is the goal. AMD 5800x | Nvidia 3080 (12gb) | 64gb ram
October 1, 20223 yr Author Version 0.2.1 is coming Tomorrow or Mon(Major Coloring Changes) Many improvements on the overall color scheme (de-saturated and darkened a bit, less cartoony) Numerous improvements to the Mantua Airport (made approach easier and more realistic by moving runway)Some preview images from Version 0.2.1 Remember not to judge my bad corrections if flying in it (it's too early), as this is a HUGE task and will take several months. A lot of my corrections are "early guesses" that are just placeholders for later, but this next version should be an improvement hopefully.

October 4, 20223 yr Author Next release is Friday at the latest, it will be more refined, though some areas will still be rough. The airport (Mantua Lake) will be MUCH better on the next release though, it's basically completed with the only thing I will leave unfinished is refining the taxiways. There is a special taxiway coming in the future on final release of Utah Enhanced, a water bridge taxiway you will drive over with your aircraft (much later though, need to finish other stuff first). New Terminal Shown Below (it's default stuff, but multiple combined to create a unique looking structure) So maybe this fictional airport is just a TAD big for a town of 687 people, but all in good fun...

October 4, 20223 yr Haha, my brother-in-law and his family live in Mantua. Kind of wild seeing custom stuff for it. Nice work!

I wasn't originally planning on doing a fictional airport, but I started working on it, and I liked the freedom it provided. I mean I can do or put anything wherever I want, the Mantua landscape just happened to fit perfectly for its ridiculous scenery... AMD 5800x | Nvidia 3080 (12gb) | 64gb ram

The "working" airport is not being released until this weekend, it's been totally re-done and I will publish a chart with all the needed data for both VFR and IFR approaches. That said, I cannot guarantee the ILS will align you perfectly, I've kind of gone beyond the normal limitations of the ILS so it seems with a combination of high glide slopes and mountains being too close, but it should get you close enough. Hopefully it will be perfected over the next few versions as it progresses.

October 7, 20223 yr Great color there. It kind of reminds me of the days of Ortho4XP and forgetting to link a everything but a small portion of your orthos. Haha.

October 7, 20223 yr Author Will try to release this tonight, but tomorrow at the latest for certain. Finally solved the issues I was having, just need to double check everything before repacking it, and create the approach charts. This is a lot better than the last 2 versions, but as I keep noting, overall this is a BIG project trying to fix the entire state that is going to take some time to fully complete. 0.2.1 should really be 0.3, but I don't want to run out of numbers :)_ Edited October 7, 20223 yr by Alpine Scenery AMD 5800x | Nvidia 3080 (12gb) | 64gb ram
