Great scenery from BDOaviation and I have not experienced any issues with frame rates.
One minor issue I have experienced since installing this airport add-on, is that the default Krabi Airport has dissapeared. Only a "greyed out" flat outline of it remains. I have no idea if this is in some way related to the installation of my latest Phuket scenery?
I previously had the A-A Phuket scenery add-on installed (also a great product), without any issues.
Hope to see VTBS soon of you *_*
One month ago, my family going vacation to phuket, the terminal looks like on real. Very detail terminal and building surrounding. Thanks BDO for making this great scenery.
While the terminal is not bad, the rest really lacks when compared to other new airports in this price-range. If one looks at lets say EGGP from Digitaldesign for example.
The autogen around the airport is bad and doesnt fit Thailand, or Phuket. Its also sparse in some areas. The resolution of the photoground also isnt the highest and its not color corrected too. And that means that it doesnt fit well into the orbx landscape.
The ground is low/medium resolution it seems and there are many better ones on the newer airport by this time. Volumetric grass looks medium too, other airports do a better job there.
Nightlighting looks okish but also more in the lower range when compared to other airports.
Besides dyn lighting it doesnt use any v4 features nor other nice things. The objects are sparse and have also lower res textures.
Normally one could give 2 stars, i gave it 3 stars because Thailand was my home country for near a decade and i know this airport very well and love to fly here with the 747. Im happy we got Phuket for v4, thats the bonus star.
PS: the airport was sunken in ground without an external patch that overwrites P3D/ORBX files. That too left a bitter taste. It can be fixed now though.
