Version 1.1 with the newly opened Terminal 3
============================================
(Don't forget to read the full readme file)
Installation
============
The scenery
===========
1. Unzip the download file LLBG2004_1.1 to any folder of your choice
2. You will find in the folder an AFCAD file AF2_LLBG_Natbag2004.bgl. Copy this file to your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Addon Scenery\scenery folder. Make sure you dont have any other LLBG AF2-AFCAD installed there (AI traffic AFCAD files for LLBG, that came with programs such as Ultimate Traffic will not create conflicts with the new AFCAD). Warning; The scenery will not show properly without the new LLBG2004_1.1 AFCAD file.
3. Copy sk_LLBG_2004 folder to your add-on sceneries folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Addon Scenery
4. To activate the scenery start FS2004 and go to SETTINGS\Scenery Library\Add Area\Addon Scenery. Double click on Addon Scenery and browse to sk_LLBG_2004. Double click on the folder and then click OK. Exit FS2004. Next time you start the simulator the scenery will be there.
To get a full flying experience from and to Ben-Gurion, I recommend to install the following add-on sceneries that will give you a great look on Tel-Aviv and the immediate surroundings of LLBG, with the real landscape; towns and villages, forests, coast lines, roads and highways, road junctions, etc. (file names are for SurClaro.com downloads, but you can find the sceneries on SurClaro too)
1. Metropolitan Tel-Aviv by Seev Kahn (isrtv_01.zip)
2. Jerusalem and Judea by Seev Kahn (isjrs01.zip)
3. Tel-Aviv VFR Photoreal V2 by Alexander Lawrence (tlvphot2.zip)
4. I recommend to use LightWeight Mesh by Svante Wendel for the whole area (eurmed-1.zip). The above mentioned add-on sceneries are adjusted to this mesh.
Un-Installation
===============
To uninstall the scenery delete it from FS2004 (same way as you installed it but chose Delete Area). Then delete all LLBG files you installed on your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9.
Increase Frame Rate
===================
As said above the scenery was done with gmax (both Rwy12 library objects and the specially made structures) and is very efficient on the frame rate side. It was also tested on several systems and found to be working well on a whole range of machines. Still, if for some reason, you want to delete any objects browse to sk_LLBG_2004 folder and add a .BAK (dot BAK) suffix to the BGL files you want to eliminate. They are named according to their function. Dont mark Rwy12 library files with a .BAK.
