File Name: NZCH Christchurch Airport Photo Scenery (XP9) ISDG File Submitter: chris k File Submitted: 23 Aug 2012 File Category: DSF Scenery Packages X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 9 NZCH Christchurch New Zealand Airport Photo Scenery (XP9 Compatible Build) v1.0 Feb 26, 2012 - Chris K and FlorianR X-Plane Version 9 User's Notice: This is an X-Plane 9 compatible build of our XP10 scenery. In this version we tried to replace as many XP10 specific buildings as possible with XP9 or OpensceneryX objects. However, there are quite a few buildings missing from this version than the original XP10 enhanced version. Copyright: The NZCH Photo Imagery is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 New Zealand License with Crown copyright reserved. Please read the LICENSE.RTF for further information Installation: Move the entire folder into your "X-Plane/Custom Scenery/" folder. Thats it. Do not change the name of the directory. This prevent conflicts with the Greater Auckland 2.0 scenery, which has it's own (limited) version of NZCH. Requirements: 1. This is an X-Plane 9 build of this scenery. it will work in XP9 or XP10, but has no XP10 specific features, facades, buildings, or lighting. 2. It is suggested that if you do have XP10, you download and use the XP10 version (link provided above) 2. Requires a Video Card with 1GB of VRAM if you want to use at 'extreme resolution' (which you do, for best quality). 3. Requires OpenSceneryX ( http://www.opensceneryx.com/ ) Conflicts: Conflicts with RoyalOaks awesome NZCH Christchurch Scenery for XP9 Remove his Scenery from your /Custom Scenery/ folder, as I have received permission to incorporate it into this one Object and Scenery Credits: - Grass Edges as per Simmo W (capnsully)'s Tutorial - Grass Imagery from Mihaly (KSGY) from Xplane.hu as part of the "Mow your own grass" Tutorial - I've adjusted for colour. - Apron Lighting courtesy of the built in XP9 Library by Laminar Research. - Tress Courtesy of Andras (alpilotx) Fabian's excellent Euro-replacement forest textures publicly available on his webpage (http://www.alpilotx.net) - NZCH Airport Buildings and original FSX conversion courtesy of Robin (RoyalOak) Tannahill. - Derivative works and original FSX-converted objects Troy Chapman, used with permission. - Hangars and Misc items courtesy of OpensceneryX and their respective authors (http://www.opensceneryx.com/) - Orthophotos courtesy of Land Information New Zealand, used under licence. (http://www.linz.govt.nz/topography) - Ortho Manipulation and PhotoEditing by Florian (FlorianR) Radack. - Florian Deserves as much credit on this project - His awesome photoshop work made all this possible. - Telephone Poles courtesy of Nick (Nickster) Ward. - Joe (YYZatcboy) Vermeulen for assistance with testing and good suggestions. - Andrew McGregor for providing me ground photographs of the Airport and Locations of field obstacles. - Andy (Gjalp) for being my most enthusiastic supporter. Known bugs / stuff left to do: 1. There's a small piece of scenery missing near the runway approach lighting to RWY 02. - The reason is that was never part of the original aerial photography set by LINZ. - I'll search for a suitable replacement for that small corner (other LINZ data perhaps) 2. There's a cloud shadow near the threshold of RWY 02. It's not a show-stopper though. 3. Hedgerows need to be adjusted with new textures and adjust tree shapes/sizes to make it look more like hedgerows. 4. There's a seam just north of the Aeroclub in-between two of the orthophotos. It does not show up in WED, though... looking for the cause. Misc: This is my first attempt ever at: - Making an Airport - Using GeoTIFFs - Making a Draped Polygon - Using any of the X-Plane scenery tools - Using OpensceneryX Thanks: 1. This was completely done in WED v1.1b4 for MacOSX - Thanks to Ben Supnik and various details on his blog regarding scenery optimization. 2. GraphicConverter. Great software for batch ortho conversions and alpha blending. Pretty much all my gfx work was done with it. 3. All the previous threads in the Scenery Development forum on x-plane.org, which I found 99% of my answers to. The [sEARCH] button is your friend. 4. Carlos Garcia for pointing me in the right direction for the grass forest files from capnsully/Simmo W 5. Support from the community in general. License: This scenery is Pieware - Meaning that if you like it, you are obligated to send us some kind of edible bakeware in pastry-and-filling format. We especially like Blueberry Pie, but will settle for Apple, Strawberry Rhubarb, or possibly Lemon Meringue. © 2012 ISDG - International Scenery Development Group Click here to download this file -
