I can't wait for the AES 2.0 and especially for this airport ;)
-
Great shots I really love the 2 one ;D
-
Those night shots are fantastic!!!!!
-
James, Silverbird, BOOM,
Thanks! Working on some more shots, getting a little better at this. Will post em' shortly ;) If anyone has an airline or aircraft type request i'll do it if I have it. I have ALOT of addons...
Cheers!

Delta ERJ. A rare sight at KLAS!!!!! BTW, the Strip would look much better if FSDT would do a Las Vegas Strip Scenery!!!!!!!!

Nice aircraft collection and stunning shots.
Especially like the 1st Overland (?) SWA 737 shot.

Thank you JFKpilot. Yes, it's Overland. I like it better than the Posky because more doors open and the strobe lights are more realistic. But the PMDG has more realistic flight systems...

Aren't you the one who had steadfastly refused to purchase airports before they were AES ready? :P
-
Aren't you the one who had steadfastly refused to purchase airports before they were AES ready? :P
YES!!!!!!! You are correct!
But I couldn't help it!! I have wanted a KLAS scenery for years!! I haven't even flown into or out of the scenery yet! Just been slewing around admiring the scenery and taking pictures. As soon as AES is ready, my first flight is going to be in my Level D Monarch 767 Charter flight from UK2000 Belfast to LAS. I won't purchase that scenery until AES 2.0 is ready though!
Cheers!

Wow cool shots again newmanix.
I have Tom A330's as well and really like the fsx-native features.
-
Thanks Lindbergh and JFK! 8)
What's Tom A330?? This A330 is part of the Overland pack with the "DAX" repaint. And btw, all these shots are FS9 ;D
-
My bad man, don't know why I thought you were using fsx...maybe because your shots are so good? ;D
Ok so nice OVERLAND A330 shots ;)
Oh and just FYI... Tom's A330 (fsx-only)... http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=&Name=&FileName=toma332.zip&Author=&CatID=root
-
Total freeware A330! Nice! I wonder what else he has on Avsim! Thanks for that!
-
The FSDT crew may want to thank you as I think these screenshots just pursuaded me to buy the scenery. All I have to do now is get the funds. :D
Ahh, I wish I could get the Wilco E-Jets working. For some reason that take forever to take off from the runway. It is really annoying me.

The Wilco E-Jets require a lot of studying!! Don't worry, you will get it off the ground!! I thought it would be easy as I have the legacy series and enjoy that product but it requires time to get understanding.
My worry now is this bloody new PMDG MD-11!! The manual is like 300 pages!!! OMG!! It will be at least a week or so before I can even fly it!
Good luck on the funds! This hobby gets damn expensive for something that keeps us indoors all day!! Be sure to get out and get a little air now and then ;D
Here is my new PMDG MD-11.
NOTE: it's slewed as I haven't figured how to fly the damn thing yet!
:) OLIVER!!! AES PLEASE!!!!!!!! :)

I spotted a thread on the Aerosoft forum about this particular jet, sounds like it will practically fly itself.

I spotted a thread on the Aerosoft forum about this particular jet, sounds like it will practically fly itself.
In saw the same article, he said that one doesn't really need to read the some 300 pages manual but just follow the tutorial flights. I intend to do that this weekend when I actually have some time to fly the darn thing...
And to Mr. BOOM, that was one expensive trigger and it blew a hole through my wallet... Worth it though. Next stop? AirSimmer...
-
Great Shots. I hope yours is better"situated" than mine. (FS global) edges like crazy, thank you MS. :'(
I hope you did not loose too much money on your trips ;)
MD-11 looks to be fun, and theA320 down the road.
Too bad no weather radar, but again, thank you MS.

Good shots, I still can't believe that FSDT didn't model the Strip. It's like leaving out Maho Beach in a St. Maarten scenery.
-
That is one thing I love about the other developer named after the Florida city. In the St. Maarten, KMDW, and Kai Tak sceneries, they did not confine themselves to the scenery alone. Really sad that we can't get a good payware Vegas Strip from FSDT.

There's an easy way to convince us that adding things like city scenery to the product makes business sense:
There's a very nice scenery for Florence that we did for Aerosoft that is currently available. It features a very interesting approach, which is both challenging and nice to look at, being so close to the city, which is one of the most important touristic destination in Italy, and has been fully modeled in 3d.
If you like this kind of products, by all means go to Aerosoft and buy that scenery...we'll surely notice that.
-
Mr. newmanix,
I'll 2nd Virtuali there ...
I bought/own it (Florence X) and it was one of my 1st FSX sceneries that began my FSX hobby explosion because it was just that good! :o 8)
PS: Virtuali, solved the REG issue; you should be noticing something major from me soon too. ;)
Ciao!
-
Ok, I am willing to put my money where my mouth is Virtuali. I went over to Aerosoft shop and didn't find the scenery anywhere. There is the Pisa scenery at Cloud9 but can't find the Florence. Also, is it for FS9??
I figure, if Aerosoft can make money on the NYC scenery which I bought for FS9 and it is nothing more than a WHOLE bunch of randomly placed bland non detailed buildings (I know NY VERY well, my girlfriend lives there) then FSDT MUST be able to make money on a VERY detailed Vegas Strip.
No? :P

Venice X is for FSX only. :'(

I am sorry, and I have been to Italy, but since when is Florence a part if Venice? Or is Florence included in that scenery package. Sorry if I am missing something... BTW I will buy that Venice when I start using FSX sometime off in the future...

:D Still waiting on AES!! :D And NOW I am waiting on FSDT Vegas Strip Scenery!!!!

If you have FSX there is a good free Vegas strip here http://fs-x.world.coocan.jp/index.htm for free.
Edit: There is also a FS9 version as well on that site if you click on the FS2004 link.

Actually, if you look at the first screenshots of this thread, you will see that that is exactly the addon I am using. Sadly, it is not up to date and not payware quality. But it's the best available for the time being.
Thanks though!! ;)

No, they are two separate products, Venice has been developed by Andras Kozma, Florence is a separate product, was developed by us, and it's sold here:

Mr. newmanix,
My mistake... :P I have both Florence X and Venice X and I meant Florence X (and updated the original post). ::)
But both are really good products; however, FSDT's Florence X was IMO at a much higher level (especially at the time it was released). :)
My only request, Virtuali, is if you are ever inclined to do any improvements to it, Could you update the roof textures to something more High Res?

Sorry to hijack this thread. But I have a few things to mention regarding airport + city scenery.
Let's be honest with ourselves, Florence is very nice but will never sell as well as JFK or other major US airports. You've told us before that poor sales of Florence is what restricts you from making such sceneries. But I think the lack of awareness the scenery even exists is a major issue. It's not (to my knowledge) acknowledged anyware on the Cloud9 site, and it's only listed on the European store for Aerosoft and not the American one. Case in point:
Ok, I am willing to put my money where my mouth is Virtuali. I went over to Aerosoft shop and didn't find the scenery anywhere. There is the Pisa scenery at Cloud9 but can't find the Florence. Also, is it for FS9??
Florence is an impressive scenery, with great framerates thanks to the Addon Manager. Which gets me thinking: if you were to do, say, Flytampa's Kai Tak, in C++ and not the standard bgl format, how much better fps could we get? Would doing extended coverage beyond the airport actually enhance fps over default?
Airport + city scenery takes time and money. 14 months isn't viable for FSDT. Some couldn't care less about the city part. Some of us do. Perhaps trying one airport + city scenery of a famous US location, publishing it under the Fsdt name, and seeing its sales would be more indicative of opinions regarding this type of scenery.
-
Ok let's see... Well there are some very good points raised here and I would like to add my opinion.
JFKpilot, you are not hijacking the thread. In fact, I think the thread is quite moving in a constructive direction.
Virtuali,
Here are the issues (in my opinion) with the Florence scenery.
1. I had never heard of the Florence scenery until you just mentioned it in this thread. I never saw it on the front page of Aerosoft nor have I ever seen it on Simmarket.
2. Aerosoft has an idiosyncratic tendency to only update the European front page and shop products without updating the other regional shops such as the USA shop. Which is also an issue that I think is hurting your Florence product as a large population NOT in Europe and thus does not enter Euro shop on Aerosoft's website.
3. Your product needs to be posted in all Aerosoft shops as it seems, Aerosoft is the only site to purchase the product. I would also request Aerosoft to put the Florence product back on the front page for a week or so to boost it's sales. This is sad, very sad that I never heard of the product and I have been checking these sites often for the last 3 years...
4. I would like to consider that (yes, here we go) you backport the Florence scenery to FS9 and modify the scenery for Oliver's AES. I find that I have purchased the ENTIRE Overland airports packages and numerous payware sceneries because of AES. If it only takes a couple of weeks to do this backport process, then I think it is very well worth it Virtuali. And this opens this scenery to the FS9 demographic.
5. I very much agree with Mr. Chams (yes, I spelled it right this time ;) ) the roof textures of those buildings need to be updated!! This could be corrected during the backport process.
6. If you backport the Florence scenery, I will buy, not one, not two, but three Florence sceneries. We can do a screenshot contest raising awareness of the scenery and two winners can get the activation codes I purchased. The third would be for me of course.
7. Florence, although beautiful, shouldn't sway you from doing a Vegas scenery. Look at the sales of Aerosoft Manhattan and FlyTampa KaiTak. Your Vegas scenery, I am quite sure, would match or exceed the those sales. And FlyTampa did a kickass job on the KaiTak, I still can't believe how good that scenery is. I think the Vegas Strip for FSDT is a great opportunity to extend your produce line.
I know it's a risk, and it will take a lot of time!! But again, look at the sales of those other products and honestly tell me you can't match those sales, just tell me. Because, you, I, and everyone else here knows you can. :)

1. I had never heard of the Florence scenery until you just mentioned it in this thread. I never saw it on the front page of Aerosoft nor have I ever seen it on Simmarket.
You would never see that on Simmarket because, even if it's published by Aerosoft, it's uses our own Addon Manager so, there's no need to use Simmarket to sell it, because it's sold through Esellerate.
Which is also an issue that I think is hurting your Florence product as a large population NOT in Europe and thus does not enter Euro shop on Aerosoft's website.
Yes and no. At this point in time, our best seller scenery is NOT an European one. Yes, many would probably assume our best selling scenery it's JFK, by large. Instead, it's not. It's Zurich. So, the European market it's perfectly able to sustain a successfull product, alone.
Your product needs to be posted in all Aerosoft shops as it seems, Aerosoft is the only site to purchase the product. I would also request Aerosoft to put the Florence product back on the front page for a week or so to boost it's sales. This is sad, very sad that I never heard of the product and I have been checking these sites often for the last 3 years...
I think Aerosoft is just publishing too many things, without giving the same attention to each one. I guess that this is the reason FSDT now exists as an independent entry, because we can surely care and promote our own stuff much better.
If it only takes a couple of weeks to do this backport process, then I think it is very well worth it Virtuali. And this opens this scenery to the FS9 demographic.
It takes only two weeks if the scenery was designed from the start to be backported, otherwise it would take longer than that. That's another reason why there would be no FS9 version of our KMCO, because that's another scenery that was made 100% with FSX only in mind.
And, in any case, even if we had an FS9 version, it might double its sales AT BEST, but it would still *very* far behind all other products we developed so far, but Florence hasn't taken *that* much less to be done compared to, let's say, Zurich. In that case, the city was the bigger effort.
5. I very much agree with Mr. Chams (yes, I spelled it right this time ;) ) the roof textures of those buildings need to be updated!! This could be corrected during the backport process.
The design objective of the city modeling was to give the pilot a realistic view during the approach, and if you look at screenshots from a normal flying distance, I think they show this goal has been reached. One is not suppsed to go that close, it's a different kind of scenery compared to, let's say, Aerosoft Manhattan or Venice. Even if Florence has a short runway it's still an airport for liners, small liners of course, like ATR, BaE 146, Saab 340, A318, but liners, to be flown in a certain way...
And, Florence has an exceptionally good frame rate, which ( as JFKpilot *very* cleverly noted ), shows how much better our methods can be, when we do normally-sized airports, instead of the ultra complex mega-hubs that, unfortunately, is what most of the people BUY...
6. If you backport the Florence scenery, I will buy, not one, not two, but three Florence sceneries. We can do a screenshot contest raising awareness of the scenery and two winners can get the activation codes I purchased. The third would be for me of course.
Well, thank you very much for your support, that scenery probably deserved more attention than it got...
Look at the sales of Aerosoft Manhattan and FlyTampa KaiTak.
I don't know the Aerosoft sales but, I can easily tell you that, if we had to take 14 months to do a scenery, like FlyTampa said it took to do Kai Tak, the *next* one would probably freeware, because we would have bankrupt in the meantime, and start looking for other jobs perhaps making sceneries as an hobby. Nothing wrong with that, but that's not what we are interested in, right now
I know it's a risk, and it will take a lot of time!! But again, look at the sales of those other products and honestly tell me you can't match those sales, just tell me. Because, you, I, and everyone else here knows you can.
I'm sorry to say that but, we are involved in something much bigger than any scenery right now, and are very busy with that so, I don't think we'll find a way to make another experiment with city scenery. Note that, Florence wasn't our first city scenery, we did Rome for Cloud9, and sold as bad as Florence, and we did the city of Amsterdam that was included with Cloud9 EHAM and, although EHAM sold *very* well, no complains about that, the only effect the city had on the product, that we had to spend time on Cloud9 forum to tell users how to get RID of it!
Let's just say that, so far, we haven't been very lucky with city sceneries...
-
Hmm... Well indeed you guys havn't had the best of luck with city sceneries. BTW, I really like the AMS city scenery that came with Schiphol. And FT does take 4 EVER to produce their products and I assume that is because it is only a hobby for them. In fact, I do DARE say that FSDT takes scenery addons more seriously than anyone else. You guys do very well with communicating with the customer base and updating us on upcoming products and there is a lot of consistancy here. Well all I can say is, you guys don't just make FS addons, you guys create ART. Very beautiful art. Thanks for all you do and keep up the good work. And please if you can, get the Florence scenery AES ready for FSX as 2.0 which will be avaliable soon and I want that airport when I upgrade to FSX. (I only buy AES compatable airports)
And thanks for keeping us FS9'ners in mind! Means a lot! ;D
Caio!
Here is some more FSDT art while I wait for AES!
My Eaglesoft private jet!
BTW, James, what is the difference between the Raytheon Beechjet 400A and the Hawker 400XP they seem the same!!

Hey.....if I'm not mistaking one of the companies bought out the other.....and yes they are technically the same.
-
... BTW, James, what is the difference between the Raytheon Beechjet 400A and the Hawker 400XP they seem the same!!
Mr. newmanix,
If you are refering to the Eaglesoft version(s); I couldn't tell you if the VC or other features are the same or not. I don't own it yet; but I might just purchase it along with their Citation X v2.0 (I have version 1.0 but it was a port-over and a little disappointing in both look and function). But, if its the real aircraft (Beechjet 400A/Hawker 400XP), then they look very similar in apperance and it would take an expert to notice the differences. Namely, externally the Beechjet has a slightly large fuselage and so an extra row of windows. The avionics package and other equipment are in some ways the same and in others (fuel loads, carrying capacities, etc.) are quite different. But, I assume you really are refering to the FS versions; so, if I purchase it, I'll let you know. ;)
Right now, I'm too busy enjoying my Flight1's Citation Mustang and FSDT's LSGG & KLAS. ;D
BTW: if you decide to purchase FSDT's/Aerosoft Florence X or FSDT's/Cloud9 Xcity Rome, you won't be disappointed. My only complaint/issue is the crappy roof textures which one can live with for a while. Also, Aerosoft is coming out with a whole line of US City sceneries which are really awesome. Maybe you can convince them to do Las Vegas, that is if Virtuali doesn't reconsider and decide to do it. But, we all know he can be a "tough nut to crack" :D when it comes to getting him to do something that is NOT financially worthwhile. In fact, I think I have to give him a $1,000 donation to the "Clone Kappa Foundation" to get him to make me my FSDT F-14 Tomcat; And I will too if it would work. :D ;D But, I will say this in his defense, he's planning an FSDT product with a voice marshaller and ParkMe updated features (like AES 2.0). So, maybe we'll see that done too for KLAS soon.

Could you do something about those roof textures where you live? I mean they look blurry from where I live (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GgISVipwEs&feature=related) :D
Here are some samples I found on the internet: Here (http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://farm1.static.flickr.com/112/314179676_11480b676a.jpg%3Fv%3D0&imgrefurl=http://flickr.com/photos/82092893%40N00/314179676&h=375&w=500&sz=170&tbnid=6N2mT5LpfQOgaM::&tbnh=98&tbnw=130&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dflorence%2Bitaly%2Broof%2Btiles%2Bpictures&hl=en&usg=__61InxV6k68qZzS0OpI0xVUCBN94=&ei=oUcGSuOJB5G6M_GxlaMD&sa=X&oi=image_result&resnum=2&ct=image)

I don't own it yet; but I might just purchase it along with their Citation X v2.0 (I have version 1.0 but it was a port-over and a little disappointing in both look and function). But, if its the real aircraft (Beechjet 400A/Hawker 400XP), then they look very similar in apperance and it would take an expert to notice the differences. Namely, externally the Beechjet has a slightly large fuselage and so an extra row of windows. The avionics package and other equipment are in some ways the same and in others (fuel loads, carrying capacities, etc.) are quite different. But, I assume you really are refering to the FS versions; so, if I purchase it, I'll let you know. ;)
Right now, I'm too busy enjoying my Flight1's Citation Mustang and FSDT's LSGG & KLAS. ;D
BTW: if you decide to purchase FSDT's/Aerosoft Florence X or FSDT's/Cloud9 Xcity Rome, you won't be disappointed. My only complaint/issue is the crappy roof textures which one can live with for a while. Also, Aerosoft is coming out with a whole line of US City sceneries which are really awesome. Maybe you can convince them to do Las Vegas, that is if Virtuali doesn't reconsider and decide to do it. But, we all know he can be a "tough nut to crack" :D when it comes to getting him to do something that is NOT financially worthwhile. In fact, I think I have to give him a $1,000 donation to the "Clone Kappa Foundation" to get him to make me my FSDT F-14 Tomcat; And I will too if it would work. :D ;D But, I will say this in his defense, he's planning an FSDT product with a voice marshaller and ParkMe updated features (like AES 2.0). So, maybe we'll see that done too for KLAS soon.
As far as the Eaglesoft, I don't find any difference at all. But it is a very nice model!! There is a whole topic about a Vegas scenery over at Aerosoft started before we knew FSDT was doing an airport scenery. Mathijs didn't bite. Maybe he will change his mind!!

Hope to get a FSX ready system this year. As I am missing out on a lot of really cool stuff!!

Does anyone know where I can get the most recent AFCAD for C9 KLAX?? I just reinstalled it for the first time in almost 2 years and it is a total mess!! American SWA and United are at EVERY terminal even in the air cargo parking areas!!!! >:(
I assume there is one at Avsim but,.. well...

Thank you!! And, yes! Very much worth the money! I enjoy it!! You will need to read the manual to get it off the ground! :o

But the question is how soon??
http://www.forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?showtopic=20164&st=40&start=
And it will be FSX only, another reason for me to make the switch!!

I told you if you ask them nicely, they'll do it. ;) Also, about your new system under 2 grand; my suggestion is wait till at or after September'09, you won't regret it. ;)

FYI, new terminal in under construction to the north of Terminal D. I'll try to get more info!
Driven by the Las Vegas area's robust tourist economy, McCarran International Airport has embarked on construction of a new 2.1-million-square-foot International Terminal to support future passenger demand.
Terminal 3 will stretch almost half a mile across the desert, providing Las Vegas with a full-service, stand-alone International Terminal that will also connect with existing Terminals 1 and 2. A column-free ticketing hall and concourses will provide flexible open spaces that will accommodate large flows of passengers.
Walter P Moore’s efficient design and close collaboration with the architect enabled the structure’s seismic bracing system to be integrated with the building’s systems and architecture while meeting stringent requirements in this highly seismic region.

That would be a nice update for FSDT once the International Terminal is finished. :)
