NOTES

• For developers:

  • Current status is “suitable for developers” for the FS2024 version.

  • See chapter 7 “License” from the readme.
• About models:

  • I’ve utilized common textures for models as much as possible to keep the package size down.

  • Some textures are omitted, PBR/normals/et cetera, usually for non-airside objects.
  • Usually normals are downscaled a bit, it saves circa 100-150 megabytes.
  • Some models have proprietary textures.
  • LODs are as required. I’ve tried to keep complexity in check, keeping simulator environment in mind.
  • Collision surfaces are done using the recommended shapes as far as possible.

    • I’ve found ladders to work with 45 degree slope max in the avatar mode.

    • Collisions don’t seem to work with vector placements.
  • If the parts could work together well, like warning signs and posts and stove and chimney, they can niftily be placed into same coordinates & heading.
  • Vector placement works for electricity wires et cetera.
• Disclaimer.

  • I’m not professional model maker nor artist. There is always something to improve.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
