Airport Beacon with Tower by Newton Drumond (Rio) and Fern Marques (North Bay)
==============================================================================
For FS2004 only
===============

The package was originally uploaded (airport_beacon_towers.zip) on Aug. 24 2005, in XML format, to be compiled with bglcomp.exe and was later arranged as a Rwy12 Object Placer library by Team Rwy12 (you can read about that in the txt file that came with the upload).

This collection is for users of Rwy12 Object Placer only.

This package allows you to install a tower, tower-and-beacon, tower-beacon-and-red-strobe, tower-beacon-and-steady-red-light or a small-tower-and-a-white-strobe anywhere. There is a choice of high-polygon + high-definition tower or low-poly, more frame-rate-friendly tower.

The large tower is taller and slimmer than the default airport beacon tower. The low-poly tower also casts no shadow, a major improvement on the "cement block shadow" of the default tower. The high-resolution tower casts the shadow of the rails it is made of. The smaller tower, for smaller airports, casts no shadow.

You can add to your scenery:

*Tower and beacon, high polygons and high definition (Airport_Beacon_Tower_H2)

*Tower, only low polies (Airport_Beacon_Tower).

*Tower and green and white beacon, low polies (Airport_Beacon_Tower1).

*Tower, beacon and red strobe, low polies (Airport_Beacon_Tower2).

*Tower, beacon and red steady light, low polies (Airport_Beacon_Tower3).

*Small tower, white strobe, red marker, low polies (Airport_Strobe_Tower)

The beacon head appears stopped during day hours. Beacon is on dawn to dusk.
