• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

I would also recommend that you use the settings inside 3ds max to match my settings, using MCX has sometimes shown crazy results to me, i use it for tests only.
 
Well I am kind of bound to mcx as I did not overcome the simplicity of using sketchup yet, sadly. But I kind of "learned" to see models like "if mcx displays it this way it will turn out that way" which is true in 80% or so then... That's the trade off for being too unskilled with blender or 3dsmax I think ^^
 
Hi !
Very Nice Magnus !

How did you Made the 3D Grass , can I have a screen of the "Object" that you Made for that ?
Thank you !
 
Hey there and I hate it, but I have to - again - say sorry for not updating this thread for such a long time. Yes, the project is still alive, and very much so! @dave hoeffgen, who is a lot more experienced and skilled than I myself am, joined me to help me out on all those small and not so small issues, that still have to be tackled.

I hope that, with his help, we will finally be able to speed this up and release this scenery as soon as possible.

So a huge thank you to Dave so far! I will keep you updated! Thanks for your interest and support everybody as well!
 
Hello,

There have been a few things indeedand @Magnus is planning to release it very soon.

The terminal got an interior and the SODE lightpoles work perfectly.

All visuals are made by Magnus, I just did some help converting and some technical support.
 
Yay, I am happy to be able to announce another white dot on the map to be covered! I can finally, also thanks to David's patience with me, release Colombo Bandaranaike / VCBI/CMB! Thanks for your support guys!

:) Thank you very much for your help, @dave hoeffgen & @mskhan1991 !
The scenery is developed for P3Dv3 and will most likely not work in FSX. SODE is required.

And of course, this is freeware :) Enjoy!

Dear Magnus,
Congratz on your release, the screens look awesome! I tried it in FSX but of course, the terminals don't show up (everything else is OK, including the jetways). Is there any little chance you might consider making VCBI compatible with Fsx? I am really enjoying your HAAB scenery as well and for fsx, there is still a white dot in Sri Lanka...
Thank you for your consideration and happy holidays!
Thomas
 
Thanks for the kind words :)

I will not do anything for FSX anymore, sorry. If someone is willing to create a FSX compatible version, I am more than happy to provide all source files necessary to that person.
Keep in mind that it is not only converting the terminal, but also the whole taxiway/runway lighting that will not work in FSX and you would have to find a solution for that yourself.

Just leave me a quick message if somebody wants to take care of a fsx version.

Thank you for your reply! I totally understand your point of view and I sincerely hope that someone with the right skills is willing to convert the airport.. would be awesome!

Greetings,

With the market being so low for P3D v3.4 and higher, I think you would do better with an FSX version, with potential future conversion to P3D v3.4 which is when FS starts becoming incompatible. Up to v3.3 it is practically the same.
