    Hi there. Nice work. But hangar 8 is buggy. First there is a pilar in the center of the hangar which is located inside the plane when you start flght in hangar 8. Furthermore when go inside hangar 8 in drone view, the camera view always jumps up on the top of the hangar instead of walk inside the hangar. Pls adapted this for hangar 8 and then of course i will adapt my rating. Thanks.

    Troglodytusover 3 years ago

    Hi, you are right. The parking spot was placed inconveniently. It was intended for small airplanes, however, it seems like it is possible to get caught in the pillar. We have already fixed this issue by moving the starting point. The "drone jumping up top" is a known problem introduced by Asobo/Microsoft recently. For some reason 3D models using "collision" and "environmental occlusion" materials cannot be entered by drone anymore. This has a negative impact on many standard and premium airports created by Asobo as well. We are hoping for a fix in the near future by Asobo. That being said, we have already removed the occluder in Hangar 8 as a temporary fix, allowing access by drone camera. All changes will be uploaded as an update shortly. cheers

    Hello, did you have some time to spare and test the newly updated addon? Is it now solved to your satisfaction? Best regards, Troglodytus Design

    StippiPIC84over 3 years ago

    Hi there, appreciate your response on the reported bug. I`ve tested and can say, that the plane now is parked fine in hangar 8. However, unfortunately still not possible to enter the hangar with drone camera as the camera still than jumps up on top outside of the hangar. Furthermore i noticed, when sitting in the vc, it is raining on the plane although the plane is located inside the hangar. No rain in the hangar when in drone camera but as said when sitting in VC. May you can fix that two remaining, lets say Hangar8-bugs. Cheers, Stefan

    Absolut Top! Lieber Troglodytus und littlekrg! Ihr habt eine fantastische Arbeit abgeliefert. Dankeschön! Ich habe LOAV und LOAN vor einem Monat gekauft aber erst jetzt dazu gekommen sie auch ausgiebig zu testen. LOAV war früher mein Heimatflughafen, daher war der Wiedererkennungswert sehr hoch und vertraut. Von mir bekommt Ihr je 5 Sterne für die beiden Flugplätze und weitere 5 Sterne für all die anderen Arbeiten, die ihr, speziell für Österreich, abgeliefert habt. Danke!

    Troglodytusover 4 years ago

    Lieber Jakob, vielen lieben Dank für deine netten Worte! Freut mich/uns wirklich sehr. Genau das war das erklärte Ziel: im Rahmen unserer Möglichkeiten den größtmöglichen Wiedererkennungswert zu bieten. Es sind doch über Monate hinweg zahllose Arbeitsstunden und auch Recherche/Vorortbesuche jeweils in die Flugplätze geflossen. Dem Feedback nach hat es sich ausgezahlt :) Viel Freude weiterhin beim Fliegen im Wiener Becken! Alles Liebe, Troglodytus PS: Ein Mini Update v1.0.2 ist nun auch draußen!

    Wunderbar, endlich schön von meinem Heimatflughafen abheben! Schön wäre vielleicht noch Schloss Kottingbrunn und Bad Vöslau zu integrieren, eventuell auch im Landmark Projeckt!

    Troglodytusover 4 years ago

    Vielen Dank, freut mich sehr, wenn du deinen Heimatflughafen gut wiedererkannt hast. Habe die Schlösser soeben auf die Liste gesetzt. Muss gestehen, dass ich die gar nicht kannte! Viel Freude noch mit LOAV und frohe Weihnachten! :)

    Vielleicht ginge noch der ORF Sender Hartberg - ist ein wichtiger Bezugspunkt für die Platzrunden - in Reality! Danke jedenfalls für Deine tolle Arbeit!

    This is a fantastic implementation of the airfield! I couldn't wish for more. LOAV has a really interessting location between LOWW, the city of vienna, and the so called "Wiener Wald" (foothills of the alps)... ... and maybe visit the nearby "Schneeberg" area!

    Troglodytusover 4 years ago

    Thank you very much for your nice words! Glad you enjoy it. Wienerwald and Schneeberg area are always worth a visit. Hopefully the forests on the Rax mountain are not on fire in the simulator. Additionally I would recommend using the ALP for sightseeing flights alongside the "Semmeringbahn". https://de.flightsim.to/file/21746/austrian-landmark-project-alp

    Yesssssss! Austrias most important.... what do i say... the world´s most important... nah... THE most important local airport of "everywhere" is finally released! 😍 Thanks for it, i really needed to get this, as it´s the local GA airport in my home region. It´s "vanilla" representation in MSFS looks like an abandoned junkyard. Thanks to Troglodytus this pain had an end. It´s very, very, very nice to see now. I also prefer getting it from this site, not having to wait to get it released via the ingame marketplace any longer. Thanks a lot! And now let´s go for LOAN... 😉

    Troglodytusover 4 years ago

    Thank you so much! you are definitively right, the most important airport anywhere - near and far :D Thank you for all your support, I hope you are enjoying the addon! LOAN will be next in line ;)
