ACE Airport Pack

[bwatterud 7]

I remember a while back that you were working on some additional lots for the original style. Will those be included in this pack?

Also, an MML might be nice (if you feel like making one, of course), since my airport menu is dead enough already.

[Yoman3 5]

You seem to have lightened the textures on the Kansai style lots, I actually liked those darker textures that you were using when you were first BATing them.

cool! nice one Ace.. so the release will be real soon huh? hehe Just in time..

[ace_bovenopdeberg 24]

ShadeSlayer - yes, the side pieces need to be moved a bit in the LE. If I have more time I'll fix the seams issue later on.

bwatterud - no, improved versions of the old models will not be included. Also MML is something I have no clue how to do, and I don't plan on doing it since it would delay release even more. Plus, I'm not  really crazy about MML.

yoman3 - yeah, I did lighten up the textures. Again, if I have time I'll change it and re-render (takes very long).

The new terminal pieces put the old ones to shame!

ACE, are these pics real?? or are the from sc4?? the difference is hard to see!!

looking forward for release!

Great stuff ACE can't wait for the release. It seems that people are split about the colour of the new Kansai airport terminal pieces. I personally prefer the old one. Seeing as you are placing each part of the pack in seperate folders could you not release bother varients?

Wow great stuff ACE. Can't wait for the release. It seems that people are split over the textures for the kansai airport pieces. Personally I prefer the old ones but seeing as you are releasing each component in a seperate folder what about releasing both varients.

Oh okay, well, If you release it, I take it you'd work on an addon file with the fixes and such?

bwatterud: You talking about these?

Are we going to be able to use your old airport terminal/concourse pieces and these new ones? Because I've been planning an airport that involves two types.

[bwatterud 7]

@ShadeSlayer-Actually, I was talking about these.

[ShadeSlayer 15]

I posted the link of the first image, but not the other two.

[bwatterud 7]

Oh, sorry. The first link you posted just redirected me to the Imageshack home, but it is the same address.

[ShadeSlayer 15]

Are there any updates coming.. anytime soon?

I can't hold it in.

[allan_kuan1992 6]

requesting an update please.

Jeez, give the guy a break. It's not the end of the world if he doesn't post an update every week, on the dot. Have you even considered that he might have something going on in RL? He'll post updates when there's development worthy of an update. That could mean tomorrow, or it could mean two weeks from now. Just be patient, and they'll come.

im going to say it once and im going to say it again be greatful there are ppl with unique talent creating custom content for this game as momma would say when we were all younger and begging to have a new toy when we go to the store "Sit down, shut up, and be patient!"

[Voltaire 52]

thx Fila, bwatterud

Rest assured progress is being made and we're getting closer to release every day. For the time being I have nothing to show because modding does not make for exciting pics... unless you like dual widescreens full of hexadecimal... so take it easy on us... modding 90 lots' & 30 props' hexcode makes stupid

actually there's one important change to mention: I'm pulling the Braniff  "Great Pumpkin" 747 livery from wide release due to un-fixable compression artifacts in the starboard-view renders. It'll be replaced by another 741 with NWA livery. Individuals who still want Braniff will be able to get it separately in a manual-install format.

::edit::spelling

[ShadeSlayer 15]

Sounds great Voltaire (except for the Braniff )!

Pilotdaryl said you were planning on 737's for your next release; is this true? If so, are you planning a Westjet livery?

[joerg 280]

Hey guys saw my name come up alot here, and well first i just want to say what a great job ace is doing. Secondly dont worry about compatibility, aces will out do my old pack in everyway.

[pilotdaryl 25]

JOERG???

[ilikehotdogsalot 308]

yeah! he's been back for almost a month now lol

[westfieldismyawesomehome 0]

OMFG!!!! the best airport upgrade i've seen yet!!!

[ShadeSlayer 15]

On a different note, all of you should download Pilotdaryl's jets of the sky pack 2, I personally like the AA MD-80.

[ccecill 52]

when is all this going to come out?

Also, what do I need to do to get planes? sorry, I'm stupid when it comes to this.

[abcd 5]

@ACE or anybody else who can help me: I downloaded the ACE Airportpack + Expansion Pack but it doesn't show up in the Airport menue or anywhere else.

Is there anybody who knows a solution?

Thanks

[ace_bovenopdeberg 24]

UPDATE:

hey all,

yes, final work is in progress, release date is set...

there are, however, some more lots to look at:

2 new end-pieces (one connects to RMIPs ground walkways):

(oops, ignore some misplaced walkways; mistook them for straight white lines I guess. That's what you get when you're in a hurry)

Something I don't think I've mentioned before: all the new concourses have nightlights.

ACE

[EDIT: Fixed nightlights pic^]

[nycsc4 5,250]

that looks amazing, I can't wait to build my new airport!!!

[ShadeSlayer 15]

Hey! You said it wouldn't be released in this one, thanks so much for doing it!

Edit: The bottoms of the terminals are transparent.. right? cause if they aren't, then the new ramp colors won't fit in.
