FS2024 SECTION

V1.1   30 Nov 24

• Stage 1 conversion to FS2024. Fixes missing buildings, corrects terrain and textures.
• Makes the airport work fine and look fine.
• Look out for further fixes and updates as I discover cool things in the new SDK.

 

V1.2   06 Dec 24

• Fixed missing linework (good on ya Microsoft! - Now I have to check every friggin line on every airport).
• Looking good for FS2024.

 

V1.3   20 Dec 24

• Changed the terrain pathing references for the new terrain engine to read the surfaces correctly into FS2024.
• Replaced the control tower with one that doesn't suffer from the aggressive LOD 'popping' bug present in FS2024 at the moment. 

 

V1.4   29 Jan 25

• Final conversion to FS2024.
• Fixed the grass runway that the new FS2024 satellite scenery had added asphalt in places to.
• Fixed up the 3W parking marking on the main apron that had doubled up and gone blurry.
• Removed and replaced the last of the popping objects. However part of the main terminal still pops, but from a very far distance, at least 400m away. I cannot replace it as it forms part of the terminal. I am happy with it though, it is not annoying.

 

V1.5   05 Jul 25

• Fixed a minor terrain issue.
• Made a few other cosmetic changes and additions.
• Removed the windsock circles as they were not sitting right and are not really needed.

 

V1.6   05 Dec 25

• Added the proper FS2024 Helicopter Parking for cold/dark starts. Look for Helicopter Parking xx
• Added fountain animation to the roundabout fountain
• Made other minor additions and texture work.
• Final check before SU4.

 

V1.7   28 Dec 25

• FS2024 version update.
• Replaces/substitutes many missing objects caused by SU4. Too many to list.
• Fixes lighting issues also caused by updates in SU4.
• All of my scenery is now being checked for this total mess they caused us Dev's.
• Adds FS2024 Helicopter cold and dark parking.
• Adds taxiway exit lighting from the main runways.
• Some other minor fixes and additions.

FS2020 SECTION

Note  your sim must be up to date with all world updates installed. You do not need any photogrammetry installed,  just the base world updates as I borrow scenery from those resources. This project makes extensive use of the UK2000 Scenery Library which is free in the Marketplace. Please make sure you have it installed.

V 1.1

Back over the 'ditch' to my country of birth for a request - to replace Invercargill Airport with a version that has working AI Traffic and is GSX compatable.

V 2.0 ( 1/3/24 )

• Added 3 ATC Controllers inside the Control Tower. Go take a look at them doing their jobs.
• Added internal lights to some of the hangars.
• Tweaked the behaviour of the AI to be more efficient in taxi mode.
• Added some more lights, around the Control Tower and the roundabout and rental car areas.

 

V 2.1 ( 8/3/24 )

• Added a construction site next to Hertz Rental Car Hire for extra eye-candy.
• Varied the sizes and shapes of the manually placed tree objects after a great tip from @User654YT.

 

V 2.2 (16/4/24)

• Fixes the missing guardhouse next to the security guards at the gate to the main apron.

 

V 2.3 ( 21/4/24 )

• Fixes a missing fence object that I have placed in much of my scenery not realising it was from other freeware and would not have appeared for anyone.

 

V 2.4  - 07 May 24

• Replaced a hangar with one you can spawn into. Choose GA_Small 1 for this cool new feature.
• Prevented ATR's and such from spawning into the small GA parking, and into the new hangar.

 

V 2.5 - 07 July 24

• Altered the colouring of the arrows and other markings on the apron to better match the yellow lines so they all blend in much better.
• Added gables to the grass runways.
• Added some signage to one of the hangars.
• Other minor work and a check of FPS.

 

V 2.6 - 4 Aug 24

• Mowed the grass across the entire airfield.
• Added a hidden parking spot for the helipad (Parking 100) to allow cold and dark starts.
• Added shrubbery around the airport areas.

 

V 3.0 - 23  Sep 24

• Completely redid the main apron to make it much more accruate to RL, correcting many ommisions and adding many more custom markings. Note this will not affect any GSX profiles as the parking spots have not moved.
• Corrected any taxisigns and placed them in the right position and orientation.
• Replaced the stock lines with my own custom ones. Now all ground markings and lines will be colour matched.
• Made some other minor corrections and additions.  

 

V 3.1 - 22  Sep 24

• Fixes a dual taxiway sign that was glitching out.
• This should be the last update before MSFS 2024.

HELP ME STOP THE WIFE CHUCKING A TANTRUM:

If you appreciate the work that I have done and it gives you joy, PLEASE consider smashing that Paypal button and donate to the cause, just $5 or $10  or whatever you think is fair. I would love to continue to pump out these near-payware quality airfields for you to all enjoy but I have to justify my time and effort these days to the wife. Help me take her out to dinner or she will put a stop to anymore ''time-wasting" :(

Tip:
Don't forget to reload your Little Navmap scenery library now and then in order to keep your new airfields accurately portrayed within it. This way all your new taxiway designations are updated among other things.

LNM automatically searches through your community folder during the process which runs in the background so you can keep simming.

From the menu bar of LNM:  Scenery Library | Load Scenery Library | press Load. When finished, press Use Database.

Instructions:
Unzip and drop into your Community folder.
