This is the scenery of the international airport Simón Bolívar "Maiquetia", made with new techniques never before used for South American airports, the airport consists of several terminals, the national terminal, the international terminal, the cargo terminal, hangars of aeropostal, avensa, servivensa, parking lots, and also the city of Catia la Mar, little coastal city that it's to the west of the airport just before the landing on runway 10 (old 09). The landclass of the airport was made using the new technique of textures DXT3 with levels of transparencies at the borders to give a better effect in the change with the textures of the Flight Simulator. It includes variation of the mesh terrain to simulate the hill from the north to the airport and the differences with the city of Catia. It also includes all the service cars of the airport like: baggage, transporters, loaders of suitcases, catering, stairways, buses, etc. They are in the part of service under the terminal and under the gates, when activating certain frequency in the ADF they stuck to the airplane as if they were making their work. Also each one of the Gates adapts to the size of the airplane that you are using. We also include an AFCAD file to use all the parking positions as much in the gates as in the extended ramps. This is the first airport of a series that we will take out so soon each one this are finished and proven.
1.-Decompress the files in a temporary folder in your desk, create a folder and call it Maiquetia (or the name of your preference) and inside this folder create another 2 folders, name one SCENERY and the other name it TEXTURE, place all the textures files in the folder TEXTURE and the files with the extension *.BGL in the folder Scenery except for the file AF2_SVMGed.GBL that to our preference is better to put it in the folder SCENERY on the ADDON SCENERY folder, located on the Flight Simulator folder, so this file goes in the following address: * * * * * * Flight Simulator 9\Addon Scenery\scenery * * * * * *.
2.-Then open the Flight Simulator and in the main menu select the option SETTINGS and later the option ADD AREA, later look for the folder where you put the files of the Maiquetia airport and select to accept. Exit the simulator and enter again and the Scenery will already be installed
This scenery was created from pictures and visual information that its creators obtained by means of INTERNET and of some collaborators, followin the same politics used by Microsoft to create the simulator As Real As It Gets, and also trying in all the possible ways to make it as friendly as possible to any computer system as for FRAME RATES, that which has always characterized the work of the creators, tests made in several systems and with the options to the maximum of realism and with the options of the AI traffic to the maximum, and with real airlines and real flight plans, in which it gave us a minimum of 8 FPS in short final in the slowest system, anyway the authors recommend to adapt the option bars of the simulator so that the FPS can increase.
Carlos Gomez: For his immense collaboration when almost sending the whole photographic material that we use to make the buildings and the textures of the airport, and also to cheer us up to carry out this scenery.
Amer Yordi: For his collaboration also in sending us pictures taken in the air by his Father Cap.Amer Yordi (pilot of Aeropostal) in approaches to Maiquetia this help us to make the landclass and the runways, without these pictures we had not been able to have the quality of this work.
DVD DEPOT: To facilitate us videos in where find a lot of information on the airport of Maiquetia and their surround areas
