That looks B-e-a-utiful.

Just wondering.. are you going to release the "landing" 747, and if so, is it just going to be still like that?

Wonderful work, Ace! I think this new style (do I count three floors?) will be just right for my planned third terminal at Nyhaven Airport - once you release it, that is :-)

SS: I don't know if it's currently possible to create new plane animations, but the above 747 looks like a static model to me.

Yeah, I guess it is.. but what about those runway pieces with the large jet/prop plane animations?

Those are just the maxis planes landing, like they do in the regular airports.

Those maxis animations arent so good though. I'd much rather just have the static plane model.

Yeah, I suppose thats fine, but, if you want a realistic airport, having something sit there doesn't really help. I suppose someone could make a new skin for one of the planes that land and make it a 747 instead.

If you really think about it, having it sit there would be pretty good. It would be a lot easier to get pics of it for a CJ, and it could be a timed prop, so it only shows up some times of day.

There is a such thing as timed props?

Sweet, then that'd be sweet, like maybe one every 12 game hours, and maybe Voltaire could make a runway piece with one on it or a taxiway piece, so you can add more realism.

    UPDATE

    I've been busy finalising some of the new concourse models:

    lot overview:

    pic1fz8.jpg

    10 lots shown in pic (still need to make end pieces)

    Some pics of the possibilities (click to enlarge):

    these models have nightlights and are ready for release, but I first need to fix them so there aren't anymore seams (lines between the lots).

    After that, I'll be fixing the terminals up for release.

    Nice work ACE!

    did you ever try making diagonals, seeing that rounded one makes me think its possible 3.gif though you might need connecting pieces that gently slope the straights into diagonals(like all the diag embankments have).

    Yeah Ace, as usual, those look AWESOME!!!  But if only you could make 2-tile versions of these.  That would be cool.

    So these are 1-tile concourses style 2?  They seem to go well with the RJ jetway... what about the 707?  I think they should get a new jetway for this style...

    That looks pure awesome.

    On another note, I just got back from a flight from Prince George - Vancouver - Kelowna, on a Westjet 737-800.

    The pilot was pretty stupid though.. my ears were about to blow up (Damn them for traveling up to 40,500 feet and then rapidly dropping down to about 5 in under 50 minutes).

    Well, last time me and the Vultures had a competition they gave in before me... ^__^

    Well, im not in a rush, i guess thats the bottom line, id rather have a perfect product later than a flawed one now.
