I had this in the stove for a few months. I started building the small airport of Mesolonghi in Western Greece. When nearing completion, I thought that FS was really missing the big suspension Bridge that connects mainland Greece with Peloponese that was finished in 2004, being the biggest in the world of the fully suspended type. The bridge project turned out bigger than the airport as I ended up doing photoreal coasts with autogen, the medieval castles on both sides and finally, the typical, Greek-style double ended ferries that served the straights for decades before the bridge and still offer a cheaper and, to some, more relaxing alternative. They are now going back and forth as AI boats 24/7.
The scenery will very soon be in the library.
Features of the Mesolonghi airport scenery include:
- Photoreal area with seasonal variations and watermask
- Custom hangars and containerised buidings
- AI default trike performing TnGs (in P3D it will work only if you copy over the FSX trike)
- The technical shool of fisheries on the north side
- Customized shorelines, to fit with ORBX Global Vector
- Optional shoreline fix for default scenery
Features of the Rio-Antirio bridge scenery include:
- Custom bridge model, bump mapped textures with hard platform surface and vehicle traffic
- Night lighting textures and custom roadlights
- Photoreal scenery for north and south shores, including hand placed autogen and night textures
- Custom castle models on north and south sides, with bump mapped textures and night lighting
- Custom model of the toll post on the north side
- Custom AI ferry boats with constant shuttle service between Rio and Antirio piers
- Customized shorelines, to fit with ORBX Global Vector
- Optional shoreline fix for default scenery
- Optional HDR optimized photoreal textures
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did building it. Dusk/dawn are the best times for the bridge. A soon to be released AI boat plan by Henrik who was king to share it with me is passing under it.
