CASCADIA APPROACH - KARIPUR-CALICUT INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT VOCL FSX FSXSE

CASCADIA APPROACH - KARIPUR-CALICUT INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT VOCL FSX FSXSE

The table-top nature of the surrounding terrain has been very well rendered. However, frame-rates at the airport are poor and 'stuttery', and considering its light weight and lack of detail, points to poorly optimised code. I am trying various devices like deactivating BGL's for 3-D grass so as to improve FPS. Installation instructions were sketchy and inadequate, and even after several attempts, I have not managed to get the SODE jetways to display. This is the work of an amateur and definitely not payware quality. Nevertheless, as with VOCI from the same developer, I don't regret buying it, as it is an interesting airport in 'my part of the world'.

CASCADIA APPROACH - COCHIN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT VOCI RELOADED FSX

CASCADIA APPROACH - COCHIN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT VOCI RELOADED FSX

I bought this because of the lack of sceneries in FSX for this important airport in Kerala (there is an excellent freeware scenery in FS9 though). But this is an amateur's work, and is not up to payware quality (as on 1/1/19). Frame-rates are poor considering the small size of the software and the lack of detail, pointing to a lack of optimisation in the code. A few unsightly 'FSX stock' features also remain (stately office buildings and a fuel bunk on the apron!). The installer is rather rudimentary (seems to be designed to work with FSX-SE only) and then one is required to manually deactivate a bgl file in the scenery/world folder. Still, I don't regret purchasing it, as it is in my part of the world and I do 'fly' there often.

Anti-Piracy Warning

Protecting Your Purchase

The flight simulation add-ons you are purchasing are legally protected and copyrighted on an international level. This ensures that the creators' rights are upheld and their innovative work is safeguarded.

Why Piracy Hurts Everyone

Piracy undermines the dedication and creativity of developers. When you download or distribute pirated add-ons, it impacts the creators' ability to continue producing high-quality content. This affects the entire community by reducing the availability of new features and updates.

Consequences of Piracy

  • Legal Risks: Engaging in piracy can lead to severe legal consequences, including fines and prosecution.
  • Security Threats: Pirated software often carries malware, risking your personal data and system security.
  • Lack of Support: Unauthorized copies do not receive official support or updates, leading to potential issues and vulnerabilities.

How You Can Help

  1. Purchase Legitimately: Always buy add-ons from authorized sellers like SimMarket to ensure you receive authentic products.
  2. Report Piracy: If you encounter pirated add-ons, report them to the authorities or the original creators.
  3. Educate Others: Spread awareness about the negative impacts of piracy and encourage others to support developers by purchasing legitimate copies.

Thank you for supporting the flight simulation community and contributing to a fair and innovative marketplace.
