No, there wasn't an installer and yes, you drop the folder like normal into custom scenery. Installing the scenery was simple but not ordinary. Comparing this scenery to some of his others you can clearly tell he has come a long way now! Yes, he is known for his sceneries but he doesn't have a website? Or a branded logo? However he sure has airport development skills. However KFLL has taken a massive leap into the latest most up to date scenery category. So how does the real Fort Lauderdale compare to Butnaru's rendition in X-Plane?īutnaru is known for his work within scenery development around the community, publishing KLGA - La Guardia, KORD - Chicago O'Hare and even KMIA Miami which is close by. With expansion in growth, popularity and buildings it's now known as Fort Lauderdale, this airport serves millions of the general public each year.
On the 1st of May 1929 the US Navy stationed base there (start of WWII), then in 1946 when it was transferred to county control it became: Broward County International Airport. Another bonus is that KFLL is located not too far from TNCM, another great place to fly! So the history behind KFLL. If you enjoy long haul flights to or around America then Fort Lauderdale has to be in your scenery collection. So what makes Fort Lauderdale special?Īpart from the fact the others are default scenery! Fort Lauderdale is one of the closest to the Florida shoreline, and has become and intercontinental gateway. Situated in Florida it's surrounded by many other airports, some bigger some smaller. while this has nothing to do with XView, apparently the Moon fases are now a lot more in sync with reality too? I don't recall having seen it mentioned on the list of updated features for XP10.Scenery Review : Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International by Butnaruįort Lauderdale ( ICAO: KFLL, IATA: FLL) is Butnaru's latest scenery to be released for X-Plane 10, and no, this is no ordinary scenery! Many new features have been added in this scenery package which make it unique above the rest. Well, Mike has found a way to sync the date / time very precisely, and now I get an acceptable match ( hmmm, maybe also because we're still close to the last equinox. One of my biggest quirks with XP10 was not being able to find a good match between day/of/year/timeofday and the lighting outside IRL.
There is yet another interesting side effect of using XView to control X-Plane 10 - the time of day. Unfortunately, there is no way of getting PSX's weather model as a separate module :-/ XView is still work in progress, so, there are still aspects to improve, but the author, Mike Devon, continues to work on that project, and we can only expect even better results :-) Then I decided to use SkyMaxx Pro v2 and the results are those in the OP. XView does a good job injceting part of this weather simulation into X-plane 10, but I had it disabled because it cause lot's of stuttering. It can be combined with METAR weather updates, which are then integrated into the internal weather modeling system.

The weather model in PSX is a rather sophisticated one, including full standalone modeling of Earth weather, at various scales, and very detailed jetstream modeling too.
