    KADO's RJOO-Osaka Intl Airport Enhanced - Image 1

    Description

    This mod enhances kado's Osaka International Airport (Itami Airport).

    How to use

    Place the extracted folder into the Community folder.

    ・Features

    Restores photogrammetry for the area surrounding the airport.

    Areas where the photogrammetry display appeared distorted have been flattened.

    Recreates ground markings, lighting, and other elements as accurately as possible using references such as the AIP and Google Earth.

    About GSX:

    While the scenery uses the objects from the KADO RJOO package, the parking areas and taxi paths have been placed from scratch; therefore, the KADO RJOO profile available from GSJP is not compatible. Please note this limitation.

    Repositioning of general objects and textures

    KADO RJOO terminal

    Taxiway, approach, and apron lights using the KRC library

    Taxiway centerline lights near the runway

    Runway Distance Markers (RDML)

    CGL, RLLS, runway lights, taxi lines, apron textures, fences, and noise barriers

    Install runway guard lights.

    Functional adjustments

    Adjusted AI aircraft to take off from W2 instead of W1

    Adjusted AI aircraft to exit via W9 or W8 after landing

    Improved visibility of RLLS lights for Runway 14

    Added CGL for Runway 14

    Added approach light beacon

    Added REIL only for Runway 14 (no documentation found indicating the REIL on 32L was active)

    Modified REIL flashing pattern (exact replication not achieved)

    Added placed the taxiway signs in their actual locations.

    Regarding the VDGS, the Navigraph charts indicated that it was installed only at spots 13 and 14, so I installed it only at those locations.(The last photo)

    If you have any requests, please provide specific materials, locations, or other relevant details. I will do my best to accommodate them.

    I have received requests for a 2020 version in several comments. However, due to limited storage space on my PC, I am currently unable to create it; therefore, I regret to inform you that I have no plans to release a 2020 version.

    Even with photogrammetry disabled, this is a great improvement to RJOO, thanks! Just two things I've noticed if you don't mind:
    As I said, I don't use TIN as my PC isn't very powerful. That places several autogen houses very close to the aprons, where you use TIN data for the hangars (and fuel silos near RWY 14R). A version with some generic hangar/cargo buildings would be awesome, but I understand if that's not your focus for this mod.
    Secondly, there's some perimeter fencing missing around aprons 1 and 7 (I have a pic attached with the locations). You did a great job everywhere else with fencing, but so close to the stands, it's very noticable ;)
    Cheers

    Love it! I Your version is much better than mine. Thank you for restoring the TIN. Are you planning to add additional lighting to the TIN areas? Also, have you considered selectively replacing TIN with autogen or default buildings in the areas most immediately adjacent to apron areas to avoid the molten TIN look? Perhaps use TIN for approaches and default/autogen for up close?

    If I may, what method did you use to bring the TIN back?

    Thank you for your comment.
    Do you have any specific requests regarding which parts should be set to "auto-gen"?
    Personally, I believe that since the hangar is a major structure at Itami Airport, it looks better when rendered using a TIN—even if there is some distortion—rather than auto-gen.
    As for restoring the TIN around the airport, I unchecked the "Apply Flatten" option in the airport properties, used a polygon to outline the area I wanted to flatten, checked the "Exclusion TIN" box, and then manually repositioned the terminal and apron.

    In general, I would suggest anything likely to be seen up close on the ground could be autogen or appropriate default structures. It could act as a buffer between the airport and the TIN surrounding it. The ANA and JAL hangars: there might be suitable default substitutes available, maybe logos could be added? Admittedly, yes the ANA hangar is pretty distinct.

    Maybe I'll make a quick & dirty version of mine as far as blending the TIN and autogen (if I can make it work) and DM you just to illustrate what I might suggest.

    I'll check out your new version too! Thanks for all your great work! Really high quality.

    Thank you for your enhacement. But Kados Airport is a msfs 2020 scenery.

    Your enhacement doesnt work for msfs 2020. All the airport is coverred by the photogrametry.

    Could you update with a compatible version for msfs 2020?
