Namibia Airfields v1.0


The sceneries in this package were originally created for MS Flight Simulator by Detlev J. Rohmer.

Please refer to the ReadMe enclosed in the download for his contact if you wish to thank him.

Namibia Airfields v1.0 contains scenery for the following airfields:

FYAR - Arandis
FYKM - Mpacha / Katima Mulilo
FYLZ - Luderitz
FYOG - Oranjemund
FYOS - Oshakati
FYSM - Swakopmund
FYWB - Walvis Bay

This scenery package is v1.0 .

We've had some missing objects on FYKT Keetmanshoop so this one will
ship with the next update.

We will also soon propose Photorealistic coverage of the region, as soon as there's a little bit of time left to do that .

Namibia is amazingly beautiful with the photoscenery coverage that we started to create, so this is something we definitely have in our crosshairs for very very soon and the Namibia Airfields scenery will only need a very slight update to perfectly fit these overlays.

PLEASE NOTE:


This scenery package integrates parts of the OpenSceneryX object library.
The scenery will work without it but you will miss some objects.

Have Fun !

DTTA - Tunis-Carthage - Tunisia


Hello,

I am very very pleased to release this one, it's been quite a bit of work to get it all working but the result is worth it! :)

You can see some more screenshots HERE

This scenery is a convertion of the Tunis2008 scenery package for FS,
created by the AfricaSim team, composed of Frédéric Kabalu & Nassim Naidja.
A big big extra 'thanks!' to Frederic Kabalu, who helped me a lot by providing all needed elements and infos for the conversion.

You can visit their website and leave them a little thank you here:

http://www.fsnabisso.com/


They're also reachable through the FS-Africa forum: http://fs-africa.forumactif.com/

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This scenery is available for X-Plane in three versions:


AFRI-DTTA-TUNIS_CARTHAGE2008_XP9_anim:

This Package is optimised for X-Plane v9.xx, using .dds textures.
It also contains XSims animated objects.

Please Note:
For the animations in these object to work, an additional plugin (Developed by Sandy Barbour) must be installed. Please visit http://www.xpluginsdk.org/misc_plugins.htm on Sandy's Website and download and install the 'CustomSBDatarefs004' plugin.


AFRI-DTTA-TUNIS_CARTHAGE2008_XP9:
Same as above, except the animated objects have been removed
for those who don't care about animated objects or don't want to install a plug-in, or anything else...


AFRI-DTTA-TUNIS_CARTHAGE2008_XP864:

This one is for X-Plane v8.64, with .png texture files.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ATTENTION:
The original scenery had photoreal coverage of the city of Tunis and the airport.
Since i've been unable to convert these textures propperly, i decided to create photoreal coverage for the region, as an add-on that is. (they're absolutely not necessary to run the scenery but it looks a lot better with them)

Thanks to Olivier "Inamat" and Bruno Lagougine "Lagb", who did all the job,
we now have photoreal coverage for the regions of Tunis, Tunis-Nord, Monastir, Djerba, Bizerte and Borj el Amri. You can download them HERE

These overlays will only work from X-Plane v9.20 on, the terrain files use X-Plane's new Texture Paging function to ensure high framerate.

Some people report broken files after download. Usually re-downloading solves this issue.

A big thanks also to Helgo for his static ships and Mr3D/XSims for the animated objects.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please refer to the included original documentation for details and original ReadMe's.


This package is enhanced with objects from the OpenSceneryX
library and wont work propperly without it.
For those who do not have it yet, you can download the latest
package installer here:

http://www.opensceneryx.com

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Important:
For those of you who have installed DTMB-Monastir, you'll have to replace the apt.dat with THIS ONE . To do so, unpack the file, go to your Custom Scenery folder, Open the AFRI-DTMB-Monastir-Tunisia folder, go to Earth Nav Data and replace the apt.dat file with the one you just downloaded.
It seems the original DTMB scenery contains apt.dat info for DTTA as well, and that could be a problem, sorry for not seeing that before.

Have Fun !
