Sim Meets Reality

[spotlope]

Who's up for some video of planes? I went out to Stark's Twin Oaks last weekend, when the weather was just way more gorgeous than it has a right to be in Oregon's February, and dragged along my camera. We see a lot of screenshots and videos of FS scenery projects, but it's rare that we get a glimpse at the real deal. Here's what I cobbled together with my meager vid skills:

Ha ha...love the "snap" out of reality to sim right at the end. Great little movie Bill!

[Francois]

Very smart, well done!

Now, are you planning on a similar movie for Emma Field ? :jump:

[spotlope]

LOL, Francois. Sure, why not? :icon_lol:

[Cleartheprop]

Nice show Bill. "Meager video skills?" I think not. Thanks for posting. :guinness:

[Sky~6]

[Roger]

LOL, Francois. Sure, why not? :icon_lol:

I can see Francois and his team racing to build a real Emma so Bill can do the video:jump:

Great video! I like the very end hehe ;)

A question - will you have to own FTX PNW to have this airport, ie will it look dumb with default terrain/texures ?

[Mithrin]

That's really nice to see! Thanks for taking the time to record that! :wavey:

[robcap]

Nice!

Thanks! And no, you don't have to have the PNW scenery, strictly speaking. Twin Oaks will work on its own, and blends fairly well into the default terrain. The airport sits on a patch of aerial imagery w/4-seasons + night, and includes its own terrain mesh as well. Using the PNW really amps up the experience, though.

Absolutely beautiful. I am sold!

Four seaons WOW! That will be great! Hate it when airports have only summer textures hah
