| Czech GA Airfields Revival 2020 Experimental Version (October 2022)
This new experimental version adds the following:
- Many static objects are now depicted conditionally, e.g. no gliders during the winter months, in bad weather or during the night, less cars in the mornings and in the evenings, etc. The conditionas at play are seasons, months, time and weather.
- Inscriptions on aprons of some airfields (LKKO, LKJH, LKNY...) are now implemented as proper materials rather than as a texture floatating above the apron.
I hope you like it. If not, there is still the original February 2021 version available as a second download.
****************************************************
(CZ version of this readme is in the download)
The idea of this package is to convert the original Czech GA Airfields Revival 2017 to MSFS 2020. This final release contains 58 converted Czech GA airfields (refer to “Final state of play” below and to a Google map here).
The original Revival 2017 was released for FSX/P3D in November 2016 and contained 73 sceneries of GA airfields in the Czech Republic which were developed by 37 scenery designers from 2002 to 2016. The Revival 2017 package came into being bona fide under the approval of the original authors and / or in accord with the requirements in the original readmes.

Revival 2020 FAQ
1) What is meant by a “conversion”?
This conversion of the Revival package contains: original assets (objects), updated common library objects (ex. FlightPort and LHS libraries), original textures, original layout of the buildings on the airfields, added some default hangars where needed, parkings, runways, aprons and taxiways and default windsocks per current status.
2) The objects are rather simple, there is a recently built hangar missing, there is no PBR texturing, no 4k (8k, 16k...) textures... what the hell?
Yes, as stated above - these are not newly created sceneries. This is a conversion aiming to bridge the gap between default and new MSFS 2020 custom built sceneries. Mind, three quarters of the sceneries were created betwen 2006 and 2013 (so quite likely at the time when some of the current simmers were still wearing pampers :-)) and therefore they are witnesses of modeling and texturing techniques of the era as well as the field layout at the time.
In case you do not like it, feel free to use any other alternative and do not forget to ask your money back! :-)
3) Cool, but there is a shiny new scenery of my favourite Czech airport XXXX for MSFS 2020 (insert ICAO code of the airfield in question).
Great, where can I get it too? Oh and go to the Czech GA Revival 2020 file structure and just delete modelLib-XXXX.bgl, XXXX-scene.bgl.
4) Why do you publish this? It will only prevent others to work on new sceneries being up to the MSFS 2020 standard.
No. That would be stupid. The Revival 2020 package is intended to be used while waiting for these new state-of-the-art sceneries to come out (if ever). That’s why the package is easily modulable (check FAQ nr. 3). Besides, these sceneries still look good in MSFS 2020!
5) This is great! Where can I donate?
Glad you are enjoying the Revival 2020 and I appreciate your generosity. There is no donate button since that was the requirement and the deal with the authors of the original sceneries.

Děkuji moc všem autorům nové konverze . Vaše práce je úžasná.
Rád bych se zeptal. Je třeba starý revival 2017 u těch 58 konvertovaných letišť promazat ?
Pokyn revivalu 2020 je jasný, rozbalit do community, doplním - a víc se o to nestarat
Asi blbá otázka, zatím se mi zobrazuje vše bez kolizí.
Děkuji ještě jednou

Hello, thanks for great work, will you please consider recompiling for SU7 😊 ?
apollon01 1 year(s) ago
Sorry, I am out of MSFS for some time now. Are there any issues with the scenery under SU7? Thanks.
BostonElf 1 year(s) ago
I am not aware of any issues with SU7 other than SU7 compatability is not confirmed -see red text on the right hand side of your scenery - although 3 simmers report its ok... This means it could crash your sim if it somehow causes conflicts with other addons...how I do not know but I tend to stay away from Addons that are not verified. This is not to undermine your great effort, I appreciate it 😊 So I will test it myself... 😊 Thanks!

Ahoj. Ty letistejsou vazne skvely. Uz v FSX vynikajici.
Nyni jsem zkousel letiste Chomutov. A u prahudrahy 22 jsou stromy. Pri vzletu se museji objizdet. Mezi poslednim hangarem a pojizdeckou C stoni dva hangary ktere tam nenaji co delat.

Teaage97
Hi, i have problem with white circle textures under objects from this pack. Does anyone the same problem? Thanks for answer.

Hi,
in previous version of Revival Pack, there were container housing at LKVO appron W with cars parked in front and proper tower. Now, there are only some generic buildings. Can you add the previous ones? If you need any photos of it, i can help 😉
Thanks, díky! 😊

Hello,
can you see properly the rest of the scenery for LKVO? If yes, the change has likely something to do with the sim updates.
Eddie75 2 year(s) ago
The factory appears to be OK. I can provide screenshots. Also, the ILS seem to be a bit off.

most likely the conversion happened before the new ones were released.
In any case, broader choice is always good for the user 😊

PS: Let me ask you, what program do you use to create (conversion), the scenery for FS2020? I'd like to try something myself. Thanks!

maybe I just did not see it, but is there anything existent for LKPD - Pardubice?
apollon01 2 year(s) ago
there is a scenery for FSX over at flightsim.cz, though the author did not give a permission for its conversion into the Revival 2017 package. Sorry for that.
