Anybody want more (simple) scenery?

[gapeters]

Thanks again for the FS9 versions to play with!

My "Simple sceneries of hard to find air bases, pt.4: South West Asia" contains the Jordanian King Abdullah II air base scenery which I created as "OJ01". I see now that its real ICAO code is OJKA.

Here is the same scenery renamed, which you can use to replace my original if you havn't fixed it yourself already. It appears in a new USMC FP on www.aitraffic.ch for Jon's Citation repaints.

I do have updates queued for Asia.

The three air bases asdro suggested, three North Korean helicopter bases (plus a POI suggestion of their runway through a hill), and four in the South China Sea.

The latter have my kindergarten attempts at photo-scenery. Two of the four are not optional with stock P3D as its land vectors are not defined. One though, has a more convincing YouTube video by someone using FS9, but I don't know where that scenery can be found.

Speaking of which, here are ALL my sceneries recompiled, BUT NOT TESTED for FS9 users to try and get working for yourselves if you are keen. Since they are only half usable, I have not sent them to the library.

Hi Jim,

Thank you for all your work on these scenery packages.

I've installed the FS9 versions. In the TXT file of each archive, you mention that it uses object libraries from AVSIMRUS.
Could you please provide a list of the necessary libraries? It would make it easier to know which ones to download.

Thank you very much.

Regards

You're welcome Foufure.

In my sim I have them all lumped together to save having to convert them every time I add another of their sceneries, but I've had a search...

7847 uses ap_equip, Fonar, Lib37, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, zdann, АДП_ob (i.e. ADP).
UKFA uses ap_equip, Fonar, Lib2, Lib37, MLIB, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, zPadmgr.
UKO0 uses ap_equip, Lib2, Lib37, RLS, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, zPadmgr.
XH00 uses Fonar, Lib2, Lib37, RusEquipment, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib.
XKBC uses sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib.
XLLN uses RusEquipment.
XM00 uses MLIB, RLS, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, АДП_ob (i.e. ADP).
XMB0 uses Equipment2, RusEquipment, АДП_ob (i.e. ADP).
XU18 uses MLIB, RLS, RusEquipment, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, zPadmgr.
XUWE uses LIB2, RLS, RusEquipment, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib.
XWPR uses RLS, RusEquipment. (Dunno where the static L-410s came from.)
Z25C uses ap_equip, FireTruck, MLIB, RLS, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, sv_lib, sv_obj, zdann, zPadmgr.
Z25X uses ap_equip, MLIB, sig_hgrcpnr_ss_lib, zPadmgr, АДП_ob (i.e. ADP).

XLPU - In addition to ap_equip, I actually used Macht_rus_fsx from Shiraz, Shahid Dastghaib OISS 2016 scenery on flightsim.com (currently down).
So instead of instead of each 3a8015a4-0944-422e-90d7-ebbdacf89beb, use ADE to swap in the original FS9 lighting mast "Mt r" 05539ae3-7523-11d8-96ce-ec748d02874b from LIB2.

I kept a spreadsheet (attached in two formats) of where I found the libraries, as I had to hunt down missing textures from one scenery pack to another (and you may need to do the same). It's grown into a monster over the years and will have some errors.

In addition to the above, I've used static aircraft & helicopters and these may be in some of these libraries: AN2_Static_Lib, sng_aircr_static_p01, yak-52v2_181109, zgastat, zMuseum, zStatic, zstatlib, Ztu-134, but use whatever statics you think fit if you don't have suitable AI traffic. You'll need a few Mi-8s

FSX/P3D users will need to convert all the above libraries with MCX like I had to, once they collect as many textures as they can find. (I don't use any of their trees in my own sceneries. They are a pain to convert due to numbers and the seasons, and I don't know a quick way.)

Thanks to the folks on the "New Qatar Typhoon plans?" thread, I'm aware that the Tamim/Dukhan air base has a new ICAO code, and had grown a bit since I made my "QA01" scenery in the SW Asia simple scenery pack pt.4.

The code appears to be OTBT and I've added some more simple buildings plus taxiway & apron for the 2nd runway on the east side where (I'm guessing) the Qatari Typhoons have moved to.

I've included an ADE9 version for the FS9 folks to complete and compile themselves.

Hi

Any chance of a list of libraries used.. got some scenery missing from what shows up in ADE.

Many thanks

Thanks a lot for these informations.

Now, I think I have all the necessary libraries.

Hi Jim,
See above for Russian/Soviet stuff, but I've mostly used the MAIW object libraries, which I assume you have.

Stock items almost always came from vegetation.bgl and airport_objects.bgl. The latter contains Edwards Hangars which might have come along with FSX-acceleration, so I don't know whether you'll see them in FS9.
(I've recently added some objects from another stock library, Vehicles_Aircraft.bgl and from Patrick Renaudin's balises.bgl, but possibly only at small civil aerodromes which I've not uploaded here.)

For retro E.Europe and Highway Strips I have used DDR-Static-Object-Library-1_FSX.BGL hosted by MAIW from Team DDR Flugzeugforum.

For Sweden (retro mostly), I often used some objects by Lennart Bergqvist (converted from FS9 for my own use), if you download his sceneries from http://www.rbdesign.se/scenery2.html.

I tried to make notes in the scenery packs if I occasionally used any others, but included:
MCDMilitaryLibrary, warehouse_airplanes_commercial_prop, ez-vintage hangers, Dan French Core Libraries Volume 7, Military Hangars and Buildings Library_v4 Dan French, parking_lots_large_ss.

I made a couple of statics with SAMM software for my on use (so not available):
eb34f27d-9d21-48cd-91b1-20296f9c3e8d - is a ROKAF F-5
ff462375-df9d-41c7-aa46-18906dd7639f - is a Be-12

Ping me some GUID examples if you like and I'll see if I can find where I got them.

Jim

[jimrodger]

Hi Jim

I believe Ive got all the listed libraries...

However I'm missing the following GUIDs

7a9c8953-c042-4716-a3b9-8218e206d325

9b94f724-3a5f-4d4a-9667-fdaa8f95859b

463a582d-8e06-40ca-ac30-f9a40ca4e279

Any help would be gratefully accepted....

Jim

[Jim]

Apologies Jim,
I see I used these in my new OTBT scenery, and they are not in the MAIW Object Library. In my P3D sim they appear to have been installed from Matrix (no longer available).

The first two are hangars from Dhahran.bgl, which looks like it will be in Package Panavia IDS Tornado’s, Royal Saudi Air Force, with FSX Dhahran scenery by Dale Ashcroft (JYAI).
If you are using FS9, maybe you can take a look on Google Earth and substitute two hangers from scenery of your choice.

The third is an apron light from LightsLibBNL.BGL, which can be found in either Scenery KNGU Norfolk Naval Station - United States USN or Scenery KLFI Langley AFB - United States USAF and include their required effects files. (There is an earlier FS9 version Langley AFB, but I don't know if it contains apron lights.)

I've used those lights in a number of sceneries as I like the effect, but wish I'd used something more standard now.

Hope this helps you fix things,
Jim

I created a photo background for FS9 by FSEarthtiles (FSET).



If anybody likes it, drop me a line


and miss the 4 Libs too.

Guenther

[Jim]

Thanks for sharing your photoscenery Guenther!

I don't have FS9 myself, but it's great to see someone taking things up a level.

If the above discussions don't help, I may be able to find more missing objects from their GUIDs.

Jim

[hgschnell]

Thanks Jim,

it would be great if you could help a little with the missing GUIDs.
I am searching without success till now.

Guenther

[Jim]

Can you copy the GUID numbers here please Guenther?

If there are lots, please check that you have MAIW Object Libraries installed and see my earlier answers on 6-7 February above.

[hgschnell]

Just the same of Jimrodger:

7a9c8953-c042-4716-a3b9-8218e206d325

9b94f724-3a5f-4d4a-9667-fdaa8f95859b

463a582d-8e06-40ca-ac30-f9a40ca4e279

And:

GUID:
c81594f4358143d0be516ec2f371f551

Name:
c81594f4-43d0-3581-c26e-51be51f571f3

FSX and FS9 mixed?

Regards
Guenther

[Jim]

Hi Guenther,
If you are using FS9, I cannot help you much. The FS9 files I provide are my P3D sceneries with some details removed to allow you to edit and compile the sceneries yourself. The story of how they came about is in this forum thread.

My reply to Jimrodger gives the details on the first three, and you may have to find your own FS9 replacements for the hangars and the lighting poles.

c81594f4-43d0-3581-c26e-51be51f571f3 is from Aircraft Shelters_JS_FSX.BGL which is in the MAIW Global Scenery Library Objects.

I'm not seeing c81594f4358143d0be516ec2f371f551 anywhere.

Jim

[hgschnell]

Hi Jim,

thanks a lot,

hangars and lighting poles should be no problem.
perhaps I find another way for the rest (FSX - MCX - (Sketchup?) - MCX -FS9 ?
