I just saw this and I thought I would share

It is not often that I show plugin technology but in this case for those who are interested in something that bring your scenery in XP12 to life more than it is know, you are in for a treat. The best part, it free!

You can find it here at the link below.

Interesting. That would be great given all of what he does.

Wow, just wow!!! 😍

Just wow too! Makes me want to change from X-Plane Flight Simulator to X-Car Road Simulator.

Cars stopping for pedestrians.

Sure, if you want to kill your FPS or forget about the flying part.

That is cool. Will be interesting to see what devs do with this, especially since it's free!

Well maybe LR will have that figure out when they start instituting multicore processing in the next 12.30 release where that issue with the frames, hopefully won't be a problem. After all, the multicore its is just about here.  

Coincidentally I installed some scenery this morning that uses this resource - but it was not for cars or road traffic but to add shipping and boat traffic around a particular Pacific region (New Caledonia). Kept the LST bit but had to ditch (park) the overall scenery package because of mesh issues (It was not really not XP12 ready but XP10-11). Seems good to me. Up to the scenery builder to use it.

Nowhere did I mention pedestrians.

Maybe maybe not the plugin as released crashes the sim. 

S W E E T - L/R hire this person!

Maybe once multicore arrives this will work out just fine, unless you're using older equipment. 

What makes this even more impressive is that X-Plane 3D models don't support full mesh/bone animations and just simple (rotate, translate), so the animations on those people walking must have taken some effort to get them looking that smooth. 

Another impressive piece of software !

The video has shown only "major" places, but I think this will really shine in "smaller" places, small airfields, towns, more remote areas etc... where details and life are usually missing.
