About This File

After a bit of a pause, I have even moreplanes, building upon the earlier upload to add even more new planes to your airport menu list. Details below and updated catalogue of all models and liveries in my BAT thread.

What's included here:

Three new aircraft models:

Bombardier Q400 / Q300 (a.k.a the De Havilland Canada Dash-8) - a turboprop commuter/regional airliner seating 50-80
Boeing 767 - a classic mid-size airliner first launched in the 1980s but still flying today
Embraer ERJ-145 / 135 - a small regional jet

And additional liveries, including responding to some requests, and to add to Pack 1 and Pack 2

Each one is lotted on a jetway lot. The widebody jets are on lots designed to fit in with the original AC Team Boeing 747 gates, while the narrowbody jets fit in with original Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 gates. There are also a few planes on 'remote' gates - using air-stairs or ramps rather than a jetway. These will link nicely to passenger walkways from the 'RMIP' sets.

These are primarily for visually simulating an airport - but the planes do return some revenue to your city (in line with other modular plane lots released in the past - simulating fees paid by airlines).

The ATR-72, A320neo, A330neo and 777 have been developed as updates starting with models I recovered in old files from when I was part of the SimCity Aviation Group (SCAG). All other models I have created new.

Dependencies:

Next Gen Planes Pack 2 - specifically the files contained under "_Common Files (do not delete)".
Next Gen Planes Pack 1 - specifically the files contained under "_Common Files (do not delete)". These can be found in the Vol 1 download.

SC4 Legacy - Airport Common Dependency Pack - specifically the AC Mega Textures and AC Mega Props packs.

If you are already using modular airport lots you probably have this.

Note on installation:

The contents are structured into folders under JoelMk2/Next Gen Planes/[Aircraft Model]/[Airline Name]. If you have downloaded pack 1 you can unpack this folder to the same location, and it will merge with the existing file structure.

For any planes/liveries you don't want to use you can remove either the .sc4lot file in this folder, or the entire folder (this will remove the lot and the aircraft props). You can do this if you want to reduce your plugins folder size and your Airports menu length.
