Heiko Glatthorn Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 It's my pleasure to introduce S43 Harvey Field, Andreas' and my latest project for PNW. Wiki: Harvey Airfield, a.k.a. Harvey Field, is a small airport located in Snohomish, Washington. The airfield has one 2,750-foot (840 m) asphalt runway, one 2,660-foot (810 m) turf runway and fourteen hangar bays. It covers an area of approximately 76 acres (310,000 m2) and is home to over 350 based aircraft including six helicopters and eight multi-engine planes, and nearly two dozen businesses including a hot-air balloon charter business. Of course it is work in progress and many details like the runway and apron (Andreas is working on it right now), the sawmill, bridges, signs, lights and clutter are still missing, but we are now far enough to show the first preview pictures. I'll keep you posted about the progress until the December release. Special thanks go to Jarrad and Russ for their excellent static aircraft models and Graham for the APX (afcad) and the local traffic, as well as all the developers who add those superb models to our library. We hope you enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Myers Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 PAKT and NZSI were a given for me and I thought I would resist further temptation of the other releases for the safety of my own marriage. These have found a crack in the foundation though... Must stay strong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josedav Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Heiko- The liberal amount of detailed grass, vegetation work combined w/ excellent object placement of nicely weathered autogen structures certainly puts this one into a very special category... such realistic ambience combined w/ "nature flow" should place this airport among Orbx all time best- For the serious simmer craving more realism this one definitely is going to be a "must have"- Congratulations to you and others at Orbx on hard work well done producing such a stunning result!

kludger Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Wow, I fly out of S43 a lot which already looks great in PNW so I thought I might skip it, but I can see with the job you guys did it is a must buy... it is now on my pre-pay list when available, great job.

Heiko, happy birthday for one, and two, I just tried out those shade settings and I didn't realize they were in a folder. That's my favorite shade setting so far as it's not too dark and subtle, thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misha Cajic Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I was awestruck by these shots at first. And I thought 'wow, I'll definately get this'. But then I looked on Google Earth and saw It's proximity to KSEA So, sorry I'll have to give this one a miss unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heiko Glatthorn Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 I was awestruck by these shots at first. And I thought 'wow, I'll definately get this'. But then I looked on Google Earth and saw It's proximity to KSEA So, sorry I'll have to give this one a miss unfortunately The FPS are just fine in this area. Specially with the light poles in day mode. If i crank up all settings in the control panel i am still at 25 to 30 FPS (35+ with P3D) with VD autogen. We have so many options for the CP you'll sure find a setting which works great . Thanks again for all your nice comments ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
