MK Studios have updated us on their current progress with their current in-development and just released product Madeira. This includes the sceneries of Madeira X Evolution, Napoli, Mega Airport Rome, Mega Airport Lisbon, Fuerteventura and MK Global Data. With Fuerteventura and MK Global Data being new and exciting announcements.
Madeira
They are currently getting it prepared for P3D V4 compatibility by updating the runway lights and animated approach lights. They say the update will take a couple of days still whilst they finalise compatbility but will include new features including full support for dynamic lighting. It’s nice to see developers taking advantage of the new features that have been added in P3D V4.
Napoli
The Napoli scenery is being tested alongside the Madeira scenery currently and is having a few last issues ironed out including fixing the runway lights and editing some autogen. Once these fixes have been completed the scenery will be ready for release. Coming to FSX, FSX SE, P3D V3 and V4.
Mega Airport Rome
Rome, the scenery that has been out for quite some time now is getting another update this summer. This update will include a range of new features.
Mega Airport Lisbon
More data is currently being collect for the scenery with release expected sometime in 2017 or 2018.
Fuerteventura
MK Studios have announced that part of their team are now working on the island of Fuerteventura. A popular European tourist destination located off the West Coast of Northern Africa. Good progress is being made on the scenery with some great shots being shown off on their Facebook page. The scenery will include photoreal island scenery as well as full P3D V4 compatibility and hand placed monuments which are found across the island. Hopefully this scenery isn’t too far away
MK Global Data
A brand new product coming from MK studios, a new product that places rivers, lakes, roads and more at higher accuracy across the globe. From what I understand from the post, it seems that this will be compatible with Orbx Global. A possible replacement for FTX Vector? They claim is has been highly optimised to prevent OOMs due to intensive VAS usage. This product will be compatible with FSX and P3D V2, V3 and V4.
Here is the full list:
– Rivers,

– Main and local roads,
– Railways,
– Forests,

Any further updates reported by MK studios will of course be found here at FSElite.
