After previewing off the new update a few weeks ago, developer Marcus Nyberg & Philip Schall have updated their rendition of Bilbao (LEBB) to version 1.10. The new version includes a variety of changes including brand new high-resolution textures in the terminal area, vastly improved ground textures surrounding the apron and airport itself along with SODE jetways and gates.
Furthermore, the approaches have become a lot more scenic and interesting thanks to the 200 new building types, new objects on the nearby mountain ranges and also new ambient light effects for the whole city. It has been described as a “mind-blowing” night scenario.
Finally, there has been some bug fixes throughout, a new AFCAD to match it to real-world operations and also updates to the cargo area.
The update for Orbx’s Bilbao (LEBB) is free of charge to customers. You can buy Bilbao (LEBB) from Orbx for $39.95AUD right now.
