    Des Moines International Airport - Image 1

    Description

    This has been a LONG work in progress scenery for the KDSM airport in Des Moines Iowa. I am still working diligently in my free time to make a better product as time progresses. My goal is to greatly improve on the simulators default KDSM scenery! I apreciate any feedback on how I can make this better. This was Slated to become the best KDSM payware Scenery but I am Struggling to find the time to fully complete the project as invisioned, so in the meantime, I will consider this an early acess peak into my scenery, and free advertisment! Scenery includes many custom made buildings, and small details only a person who has experience working at the airport sees. I am currently Re-Doing the terminal with a higher level of detail In blender for a better ending product. Thanks for downloading! If you use this product in any video or public posts, please send me a PM with the link! I love to see what people do here!

    Love this scenery! Its not unbearably laggy like the other KDSM scenery on this site, but I do still get some stutters from all of the vehicles. Regardless, this scenery is absolutely nessecary if you want the airport to look like the real KDSM.

    Thanks for doing this airport! This is better than some payware. Great attention to details, building structures and lighting. I love the runway entrance lights that were strobing during the night. I don't recall seeing an airport that did this.

    I'd love to help yah! Making an airport is a lot more than I thought it would be so buckle up if you really want to do it! You'll have to get good with blender too!

    over 2 years ago

    Oh yeah oh yeah, im worried. But, I am pretty good at blender but just am terrible or have no knowledge of any of the msfs SDK stuff, thats what's really holding me back right now.
