    Black Rock City - 88NV - Burning Man - Image 1

    Description

    Welcome to Black Rock City - 88NV - Burning Man !

    Included in the package:
    - 88NV airport starring the Starport from Slo Ian
    - The Black Rock City (WIP) and The Playa presenting various artistic projects
    -New "aircraft" to visit The Playa... yes, a bike ! With E.T as a copilot, you will manage to get high in the sky and enjoy the night lighting of the city. (working but still WIP)

    How to install?
    Find your « Community » directory and just copy the two folders included in the .zip file there. I recommand using the great addon msfs-addons-linker by bad2000

    How to ride the bike ?
    The dynamics are from the Bede DB-5B small airplane, found the specs online.
    Start the engine, get the RPM to 3k and enjoy. Speed for take off is approx. 65.
    Start from the Parking 10 area (airport details) to be on the playa directly.

    Updates
    V1.2:
    - airport updated (specs and objects)
    - updated trash fence, all sides done
    - approx 2200 hand placed objects in the scene (low poly with emissive texture and light) and much more to come to give volume to the city. Adding the objects accordingly to the sat view.

    V1.1:
    - Correct runways specification (thank you Slo Ian): take off only from 23R and landing 23L. 25 reserved to medics.
    - Updated radio frequencies. Talk with the Black Rock Ops
    - Added the Frog Pond POI (visual step on the approach pattern)
    - All vehicules updated (no more trucks but caravans...)
    - Removed the green color of the area. Waiting for the polygon fix to remove grass
    - New buildings added to the city (WIP, a lot to do)
    - Updated lights in the city and Playa

    Notes
    -  Since I never got the chance to go to Burning Man, all the work was made using ref pictures and my imagination. So please feel free to give feedback so it can get more authentic.
    -  Calling to artists... I would be pleased to include your artworks in the scenery. Contact me if you wish !

    Sadly this seems to be abandoned and no longer works. The ground textures don't exist, there's just a few random art pieces lying around but no vehicles. Such a shame, this was the only 88NV/Burning Man out there.

    Seems to be mostly working in SU14. I see vehicles and a lot of "stuff". All 3 runways have markings.

    Yep tiles are a little wrong if you land between 3 and 7 PM. At the other times of day it's ok

    Just discovered this epic-looking addon. Is it compatible with latest update?

    The one of the recent updates, either SU7 or Australia broke the mod. Now MSFS tries to fill the valley floor with an assortment of blue and/or sand-colored textures, so the original satellite imagery is covered. Also, the night lighting is now directional and all pointing the same direction, rather than omnidirectional.


    The good news is that all of the objects seem to be fine and still look great.


    I hope you can find the time to tweak this because this is an absolutely delightful place to visit and return with friends.

    Hello ! Sorry I didn't have time to tweak the mod since november 2020 ! I ll see if I can manage to redo all the lighting and update it so it works well with SU7. Take care

    Many thanks! I'm really looking forward to flying there and seeing it as you intended.

    I'll second the motion... it'd be a real shame to let the fabulous amount of work that was originally put into this addon simply languish into a bug ridden eyesore due to subsequent MSFS updates. It's such a great destination to fly into, especially at dusk when the lights have come on! If you can carve out some time to revisit the scenery and fix the lighting and strangely bland playa texture fills, I know that myself and the hundreds of others who've downloaded (and have yet to discover) this great scenery would be very thankful. Would be happy to "Buy You a Coffee" if you offered the link!

    Hi, just a quick note (for anyone that could find it useful) this scenery conflicts with all of "Simulación Extrema"'s range of payware scenaries for Chile and Argentina. Might be something to keep in mind before downloading

    LIGHTS FLICKERING WORKAROUND: I just discovered that changing TAA Anti-Aliasing in MSFS Graphics Settings to either of two less favorable AA choices of DLAA or FXAA stops the flickering of those problem lights. For 2D monitor use the change is fairly tolerable, but in VR the rest of the scenery suffers unavoidable jaggies (which cause their own brand of "flickering" of course). Found this temp "fix" while searching the MSFS forum for "Flickering" and it solved the issue for other unrelated problems, so thought it was worth a try. Perhaps it offers a clue to the Author for helping to remediate the issue?
