    Apia Faleolo Airport NSFA - Image 1

    Description

    Welcome to Faleolo Airport in Apia, Samoa. I've been dropping things onto the island for a week now. Cars, trucks, luggage, airplanes, people, animals, even buildings. Then I flattened the whole area. Now let's give the Samoans a little rest.

    Hope you enjoy this rendition of the airport. It's designed with library objects you need some phantasy but if you've never been there, you won't even recognise. Check out all the little detail including some turtles and birds on the coast. This mod includes the latest airport layout with the regional terminal that was opened in 2024.

    This scenery has evolved over many updates. It's now a fully working airport with lots of detail, wildlife and fun stuff. Enjoy!

    Installation

    As usual. Just drop it into your community folder.

     

    Check the following dependencies:

    All World Updates

    Asobo Paderborn

    UK2000 Common Library (free on marketplace)

    Also install all libraries below. Some of them are optional. If you don't need 3D solar panels, boats or a multitude of animals you can easily skip Daves 3D animals, the Moving Boat Library or the JHD library.

    Hi, it's great now and looks as I would expect the port - thanks.
    BTW, in my opinion you could offer it for MSFS2024 as well. I've just made a walk across the field and looked after the backyard as well - nice!

    Hi and thank you for your comment and rating and also for testing it in 2024. So it works flawlessly in 24? If so, I'm happy to offer it as compatible.

    Very nice work around the airport, however, after downloading all the required files I have no terminal building when I load into the scenery, jetways show but no terminal....

    It's part of the Japan World Update. Do you have that one installed?

    Very nice airport, but to use it you have to activate 8 gigabytes of libraries at the same time! That is crazy. The best way would be to talk to library creators if they would allow to use their models in your own library pack for this airport and giving them credits. In other words 90 % of all models in all of the libraries are not present at this airport, but you need to activate it all to show it properly. It is like to buy prebuilt PC, salvage CPU from it and the rest throw into the garbage bin :D

    Hi and thanks for your comment. Unfortunately it doesn't work this way. You can't grab certain items from other libraries and put them together in a different package though I'd love to do that. All that happens when using libraries is that you link your scenery to them. I know I use libraries quite excessively and try to reduce their number in newer sceneries. I might do it here as well in an update but many of the cool little details come from different sources so you would miss some fun if you didn't have them. I use tons of sceneries and collected the libraries over time. Guess most people have most of the stuff anyway but that's not the case with everybody of course. I may check the libraries again and mark some as recommended but not necessary is they account for only a few items.

    @Snoopy7412 that would be awesome. It reminds me cities skylines (dont know if you played the game). It has steam workshop. Somebody for example created great looking building and add ton of detail using trees, props, decals from other creators. Making for example one building with 20 items you needed to subscribe as well. What was the worst was for example if someone created pack of 100 trees and the creator of the building took 1. You needed to susbcribe whole package. It took up disc space, made the loading time longer and you used more ram. BTW now I have 5 libraries (5 green ticks in the required dependencies here) :))) and I already think that is too much :D I understand it is a lot of work, but I thought maybe you could create 2 versions of your airports. One without detail/less detailed and one fully detailed. It is really awesome when someone takes care of the default runways, taxiways, aprons, gates, parking spots and makes them usable / real life look alike.

    Sorry, took me quite a while but now it's done. Greatly reduced the number of needed libraries. Enjoy!

    @Snoopy7412 No need for apologies. You are doing incredible work for the FS community. MSFS community should be very happy when talended creators like you are involved - making addons to enhance other experience. Havent flown from the Auckland with ANZ 789 for a while. I'm thinking about visiting APiA very soon with your airport addon and taking some cool screenshots :) Definitely looking forward to that and thank you for your had work you put into your addons.

    I can't take the camera inside the terminal to look around :\

    Yes, the building is sometimes nasty to its visitors. You can enter via the land side through the main entrance but you gotta crawl on the floor. Once you are in you can stand up/lift your viewpoint a bit. But don't get too close to the cafeteria or the McDonald's counter or you'll be thrown out again. They know you are hungry but have no money. Good luck!

    Hi, I checked the Dave's People library. Only the mechanic at the Bonanza and the stewardess at the 707 are from this library so there is nothing substantial missing. Well, the stewardess is substantial because she is good looking. I found a mechanic from another library and I may change the stewardess for a nice lady pilot. I will incorporate it in a future update.

    'Dave's 3D People Library' is now unavalible.

    over 2 years ago

    Oh no, that's bad. :-( It was available when I did the scenery but I didn't check along all versions. I'll check how much of his library I used and maybe replace it with alternatives. But that will take time. Usually it's just a few smaller items so you won't miss much if you don't have it. Alternatively you can send me a PM and I'll send it to you.

    e suis désolé de ne te contacter que maintenant. Je n'avais pas reçu de notification de ton message. Le terminal provient de l'aéroport de Shiwojima ou d'un endroit similaire au Japon, qui faisait certainement partie de la mise à jour mondiale 1. Peut-être essaieras-tu de le réinstaller dans un premier temps. J'ai déjà eu un cas similaire. Une réinstallation m'a aidé. Bonne chance !

    Merci infiniment pour ta réponse
    Je tente cela au plus vite
    J'ai hâte de me faire un Auckland-Apia ou un Nadi-Apia sur le PMDG 737 d'Air New Zealand ou Fiji
