EBBR update

Hello flightsimmers,

I've been working on the EBBR scenery the last weeks so it's time for an update. I've uploaded some screenshots of the new objects (nothing spectacular though). You can find them at the bottom of the screenshots page on my website:

I would like to see the cars driving around! Great work. But one question. If you put your aircraft at the gate before your flight, will the cars do catering and refuelling at your plane?

Well in most scenery's with active scenery you just have to tune the NAV2 to the right frequency to use it

There is a difference between the two methods. The method where you have to tune the NAV2 frequency is based on the Gmax animation. This animation is limited to 59 seconds and this can not be tweaked (as far as I know). In this animation you can let the cars drive to your aircraft.

The method that I will use is AI traffic, which is completely different. I will export the vehicles as an aircraft model (which can not takeoff off course). Then I will make a separate AFCAD file for the driveways around the airport. With this method, the animation can almost be unlimited. So the vehicles can drive around the airport and then return again. Why don't I use the first method then? Because it is impossible that a vehicle can drive around the airport in 59 seconds, unless the driver is called Michael Schumacher. The disadvantage is that the vehicles won't serve you at the gates.

This is just an amazing work.
Nothing more to say than "fantastic"!

I'll put a link to your website on the TUB VA website (links page) if you are interested. Just let me know.

Kind regards,

Hello,

It's allright to place a link to my website, so more people can enjoy our work.

Hey Thomas!

Fine to hear something from you again.

Great work I am looking forward to next updates!

Did you find the specific BRU pictures you wanted?

See you

No, pictures are still 'wanted'. I contacted several people on Airliners.net, but for a lot of them it is difficult to take pictures of the old buildings, because they are not used so frequently anymore. I was able to take a picture of the C-Pier when I was on the bus, driving us from the Tsunami airplane back to the terminal. But the bus was driving rather fast to take good pictures of it.

So I'm still looking for those pictures

I've posted some more screenshots on my website today. The newest screens are now marked with a 'new'-icon above. Have fun.

Looks really nice!

But one question! Why only trucks of Aviapartner! I also want to see some of BGS when I land at BRU!!

We are still supposed to be bigger than Avia!

I will still do some repaints of those vehicles, so don't worry there will also be BGS vehicles

Now let's hope my pc will be able to run this all. Though it's gmax, I think it will still be heavy stuff to run

Anyway, really nice job going on there!
