• 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.

some more work along with the re-textured terminal;

I am actually kind of out of ideas!

Guys, what more should I add around the airport to make it look and feel more alive?

need help! :p

Road signs and parking lots/parking garages with cars always make airports seem more lively to me. ;) But your ground textures and buildings are already looking like a real airport! Maybe volumetric grass or 3D edge lights could be implemented around your taxiway and apron edges? Adding that would probably make me start drooling...:yikes:
 
Working on the ramp lightings!

Can't decide if I should use this light or no!

When you look at it from the side, the trees are visible infront of them and the sky appears illuminated.

Another one, which makes me ask, does anybody here know how to do this kind of ground illumination? Any help would be appreciated.

As for the trees being visible in front of your lights, that is a draw order issue in FSX caused by improper material settings/incorrect use of alpha. I'm not exactly sure why it happens, but search the forums and see if you can find the info you need. It's most obvious in the propellers of FS2004 aircraft that are improperly converted for FSX.

Completed one side vegetation, buildings still remaining. Also changed the tree texture to higher resolution and better color tone for matching, much better looking now. Thinking about changing the whole tree collection!?

Anyways here are some shots of little WIP;

Yes, lot of views caused it to stop working since it reached the bandwidth limit. let me see if i can get them back online again tomorrow from another source.
 
Added fences and taxisigns.

Remaining:
1. Night maps and approach lights.
2. Autogen vegetation and buildings in certain areas.
3. Have to re-do some ground work.
4. Adding people at the terminal.

No editing except resizing.

Any suggestions regarding adding some eye candy are greatly welcomed. Thinking about adding static 747 and A310 at the airport.

Remaining things,

1. PAPI lights and some taxi lights,
2. Static Aircrafts,
3. Some autogen buildings and trees.

Shots with personal ENB settings, not edited otherwise,

These lights look greatly realistic with ENB not very illuminated unlike default.

Still working on the autogen buildings, almost complete with a little static work at the apron. Turkish airlines don't come here but its just a paint I had for my default A310 static model.

2 things remain now:
1. Autogen Buildings/villages around airport
2. 3d-volumetric grass around the terminal (and maybe I'll try to make custom photoscenery near the terminal area)

Only the last 2 shots are edited a bit in contrast, rest all are ENB stuff.

Enjoy the shots, I took some time to do a flight during some nasty turbulent weather.

New possibilities open as we get the custom photo-real made with LOD18 for just the airport (we usually don't have that for areas around Pakistan), need to replace the vegetation with the new one!

2 preview images with the new photoreal.
