After what has felt like forever, the teams at 29Palms and Captain7 are close to releasing their latest airport: Nuremberg. Today they revealed the official trailer. As you would expect from these two talented developers, there’s a load of features and techniques to help create a realistic and immersive airport for the community.
All seasons for the airport have been produced in highly detailed 20cm/pc imagery based on real world satellite imagery. The modelling has been created based on real world plans and geodata to provide the most up to date version of the airport possible. Furthermore, there has been plenty of additional details such as animated people in the airport, animated vehicles on the roads and apron, as well as plenty of static aircraft all scattered around. These elements can be controlled via the configuration tool.
The teams have also included plenty of features thanks to the power of SODE. This includes animated jetways, snow and rain layers (depending on the weather in the sim) and the use of dynamic lighting depending on visibility.
The scenery will be available on July 16th.
In partnership with our friends at AviationLads, we will be giving away some free copies of the airport. More details very soon!
