excellent work sarmad.

I can understand if people start to think that ur almost done. From my experience fine tuning takes most of the time. So take your time :)

Also are you re-doing the whole airport from scratch. I thought from previous pictures you already had created the main airport structures??

Finally are you going to include taxi lights ???

Also for night textures, i noticed in real time pictures the whole airport seem very yellowish. Instead of using light effects to lighten up the airport (which also eats up FPS), i suggest re-painting ground textures slightly from Photoshop (Ground textures that are near the airport buildings or around the lamps), just like flytampa.

What i am doing for my airport is that I add a layer on top of my picture. On the layer, add black colour to whole picture then using white-yellowish shade spray some of that colour over your black picture. Try doing it few more times with slight change in shade of colour. It looks so cool by doing that.....

sarmad,

nice to see that your scenery is comming high detailed, and also nice to see that you are using FS2002 gamepack to create your ground polygons, which is the best way to create them...... best of luck for your remaining work.

aim also doing the same work and i want to post pics after i have almost finished it. So updates of my OTBD will soon post as i will half finished it, currently aim designing taxilines and apron and some buildings.

Yes, most of this is done from scratch and i have included the taxi lights too. I dont think that BGL lights eat up that much of Frames but modified effect files can do that. For example FSDT's effects are frame eaters.

the runway lights will be assigned to turn on during the day to one of the NAV2 or COM2 frequencies!

Oh yeah and another thing is that the Jinnah terminal (international) is kind of white-ish ground where the aircraft are parked , so i was thinking about adding that to the scenery.

Salam sarmad how are you???
well great work hope it will out soon. I can help you for testing it hehehehehhehehehehehe.

Well from pics its really looking great but something i wanna tell you. The remote parking where MD80s are parked is only of small turbo-prob aircrafts like ATR and fokker. hope you will do something for this.

I've done that but I think that this color fits the scenery better as it looks good during the day but i will add extra textures if u like.

I haven't worked on the afcad yet and the aircraft radius allotted to the spot is quite huge that is why the aircrafts like this are parked here, wont be happening in the final version.
