Canada Intl. Airports Exclusive Drag and Drop

Project YVR - Vancouver International Airport (Early Access) 4.73/5

Meet Project YVR, an accurate freeware representation of Vancouver's International Airport. This mod is still under heavy development, with more handcrafted buildings and models arriving in the near future. Discover Canada's western gateway today, suitable for planes of all sizes!

Project YVR - Vancouver International Airport (Early Access) Video

Vancouver International Airport is world-renowned, recieving Skytrax's best airport in North America award 12 years in a row. This stunning airport has been brought to life in Microsoft Flight Simulator with Project YVR, a freeware mod, featuring custom models, new taxiway, runway, and apron textures and lines, corrected gate and parking numbers, correct taxiway names and signage (VATSIM ready), full airport night lighting, and more!

Project YVR is available in an early access state. This means that while the airport is functional, features are missing, like custom modelled buildings, interior modelling, or ground textures, to name a few. These will be implemented in future updates.

Performance was a major consideration when creating Project YVR, including optimization of textures and lighting. However, it is recommended to have a modern 10 series graphics card from NVIDIA or an AMD equivalent, with at least 16GB of RAM, and a modern 4-core processor for the best experience. Project YVR may run on systems below these specs, however, you may encounter performance issues, especially at night, which is heavier on frame rate.

To install Project YVR, unzip the zipped folder that you downloaded from flightsim.to, open the unzipped folder, and copy and paste the folder named 'joelster-airport-cyvr-vancouver' into your community folder. Installation size is approximately 280MB, subject to change with future updates.

Project YVR is made possible by free textures from AmbientCG and is driven by community feedback. If you would like to see a feature or a specific building's modelling priortitized, please add it to #suggestions on my Discord server: discord.gg/Dwtz6eCDNr

NOTE:

Navigraph Users: Your sim may load in YVR after your Navigraph data, causing issues with SIDS and STARS. This does not affect normal users. You will need to manually modify your content.xml file so that YVR is before Navigraph. A visual representation of how to do this is here: https://forum.navigraph.com/t/no-stars-into-kord/3939/7

Or, if you prefer not to edit xml files, you can follow Navigraph's official solution here: https://forum.navigraph.com/t/faq-scenery-file-re-organisation-initialization/4035

FPS/CTD issues: If you experience a CTD or low FPS on your first boot of the sim with the mod installed, a restart seemed to fix this issue for most testers. Your FPS may also be lower at night, so I recommend running this airport during the daytime only on lower end systems until I can implement a better lighting solution.

Sorry for the inconvinience, and happy flying!

a gtx 10 series card with 16gb ram? I am on a rtx 3090 which is superior in every way to the mid range gtx 10 series cards... I assume I will be able to run this airport without issues? I have 64 gb ram ddr4 fast ram and i9 10k board.

The_Joelster 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

There are no set requirements for the airport, the 10 series and 16GB recommendation was made based on information about performance from testers. You shouldn't have any performance issues running the scenery with those specs, although if you do encounter any, please let me know!

Any thought of including the surrounding airports - like CZBB Boundary Bay (the busiest airport in Canada for 2020) and CZXX Abbotsford?

The_Joelster 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

There is already a mod for CZBB: https://flightsim.to/file/1694/airport-czbb-boundary-bay

I have already started work for Abbotsford (Project YXX), mainly with custom runway and taxiway markings, and a very early terminal model. While I cannot announce any firm release window at this time, it should be released by the end of 2022. I will be posting more updates in my Discord though as it gets closer to release!

The_Joelster 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

Just wanted to provide a quick update that I have cancelled future plans to create Abbotsford Intl Airport, as I would like to focus on other projects. There is a new version of YXX created by another dev here though, if you haven't downloaded it already: https://flightsim.to/file/30091/cyxx-abbotsford-international-airport

dane 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

Thanks for your update as well as the link to a YXX file.

Good luck on your other projects

tankjohnson 1 month(s) ago

Antworten

That version of CZBB only uses the default buildings that come with MSFS, so it's not as customized. If you could do a better version of CZBB with proper customized buildings, and other stuff customized with the airport, that would be awesome!

I also look forward to your Abbotsford airport!

Can you guys do Calgary Intl. CYYC?

The_Joelster 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

Hey there! I'm a solo dev, and this project has taken a long time to reach this state (approximately 8 months), and I anticipate it'll take until the end of the year to finish. My current focus is on Vancouver airports, with the next one being Abbotsford (which is already in early stages of development) however, if I do decide to do another airport like Calgary in the future, I will post updates on my website/Discord (links in description). Thanks!

Are there any conflicts between the ILS updates and a Navigraph install? Will one over-ride the other?

The_Joelster 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

Update: So it looks like this airport has to be loaded first before Navigraph. I am not too sure how to fix this without a manual solution (if anyone knows I'd appreciate it if you could let me know on my Discord server, link in desc), however, to manually solve this, you'll need to navigate to your content.xml folder and make it so that the line with YVR is before Navigraph. You can find more details on how to do this here: https://forum.navigraph.com/t/no-stars-into-kord/3939/7

Thank you and I apologize for the inconvinience!

Absolutely amazing. This is better than the CYVR payware airports IMO, which I've uninstalled to use this instead. And for what it's worth, I get no performance hit at night vs daytime, but as usual with MSFS experiences will vary of course depending on myriad factors. But fantastic job, this is excellent. The Fairmont modeling, the Arrival/Departures signs, just fantastic. I fly to/from Vancouver a lot in the sim, and this makes it that much more of a glorious experience. Cheers!

Is this specific to your addon or is this common for other addon airports to conflict with Navigraph?

The_Joelster 2 month(s) ago

Antworten

This happens with other mods as well, it seems like the date mods are installed is the order that the content.xml file is generated in, so this is a simulator limitation, and is currently out of my control. Navigraph has posted an official solution here that doesn't involve editing xml files, which is less risky: https://forum.navigraph.com/t/faq-scenery-file-re-organisation-initialization/4035

It's really unfortunate you can't change the order of mods being loaded in to the sim, however at least there's a workaround!

Häufig Gefragt

Fragen? Finden Sie hier Ihre Lösung.

How do I install this?

Download the file, then right click on the folder that downloaded, and click unzip folder in the menu that pops up.

Then go inside the unzipped folder (which should pop up automatically once it's finished unzipping), and find the folder named "joelster-airport-cyvr-vancouver." Click once on the folder and click Ctrl + C to copy that folder. Then, find your sim's community folder, and press Ctrl + V to paste the mod.

If your install was successful, the airport should have an orange/yellow marker on it.

How detailed is the terminal's interior?

A lot of time has been taken to model the interior of YVR. It is still a work in progress, however, for the most part, Pier D is completed and it can be expected that the rest of the airport will be completed to a similar level in version 1.0. This may recieve further improvements in the future.

If you have any photos or videos inside YVR, or you find any good videos online that show the airside areas of YVR's terminal, please put it in the #references channel of my Discord (link in mod description). This will speed up the process of modelling the interior.

What does early access mean?

This means most features of the mod should work, allowing for you to complete flights in and out of the airport without problems. However, textures and modelling may still be missing, as well as other features. These will be released through updates.

This includes handcrafted hangars, the South terminal, interior modelling, taxiway markings, etc.

How is the mod under 500MB?

As of writing this (May 16th), YVR is only 300MB. This is because most textures used around the airport are procedural and re-used, in order to save space. This means the complexity of the model is much higher, however, MSFS does a good job of automatically unloading smaller objects as you get farther away from them, allowing me to add more detail to the airport through models, rather than baked in textures, without worrying about performance.

What is performance like?

The performance impact varies by system, but on most computers, it isn't as noticeable at daytime. Night time is more intensive on frame rate, due to the lighting system used throughout the airport which has been carefully tuned to look similar to the real life lighting at YVR. Moving your camera near or into the interior of a terminal can also reduce your frame rate, as the model complexity is quite high inside the terminal. At least a 10 series GPU and a modern 4-core processor is recommended for the best experience.
