Colorado Heading Your Way!

drhotwing1 (IPACS) · October 24, 2017 at 5:39 PM Official Post

Greetings Fellow Flight Simmers,

If you are looking for a new region to fly over look no further. Colorado is heading your way very soon.

The new Colorado region will feature over 30 airports (some with an additional level of detail), and 1m per pixel around airports and other locations.

With the scenic nature of the Rocky Mountains this may become your favorite new location to fly over.

We hope that you enjoy this free addition to the growing list of scenery for Aerofly FS2 !

We hope that you enjoy the following sneak peek. More screenshots will be added shortly.

Very good news indeed. Colorado may have the most scenic areas that we have seen to date. There are so many great sites to explore there. Thanks IPACS.

Can we expect to see some animation and night lighting in this new DLC?

Regards,

Ray

What a wonderful surprise!

As something of a "casual" user, I was wondering if there is an updated list of "improved" airports for AFS2's various sceneries?

I sort of stumble on them and am always delighted.

Bless you.

Thanks for the good news Jeff, and thanks IPACS for this great free DLC!

Colorado is one of our favorite vacation destinations, it will be great fun to explore and fly over this new addition to AFS2.

Very much appreciated!

OOo. We can do the Telluride Landing mission from FSX, that was always a good one!

BelGeode · October 25, 2017 at 4:56 AM

Oh yes. This is what I have been waiting for!

I cannot wait to try that infamous approach into Aspen in the Hornet. Thank you!

I hope Pennsylvania might be coming soon. (Pittsburgh in particular)

Keep up the good work folks!!

I am riveted.

Outstanding addition! The scenery we currently have is great but I have lived here in Colorado for about 32 1/2 years so I am looking forward to this.

Of course I have also previously lived in Washington, Idaho, Yokosuka (Japan), Seoul (Korea), London (UK), Virginia, Florida, and a few others. I hope we have it all before all is said & done but Colorado is a good start. Hopefully we will have Rocky Mountain (aka JEFFCO), Grand Junction, Colorado Springs (also AF Academy) along with the obvious KDEN.

Great stuff!!!

I'm also working on the Florida Keys as a personal project that I will be releasing once I finish up with Marathon Airport.

I'm assuming that you are aware of our geoconvert tool that allows you to make your own scenery for Aerofly. We have made it to where it's much easier to do, and there are full step-by-step tutorials for achieving this on our wiki.

Yep, I added Colorado using FSET 4 as soon as I read your about the upcoming release. I added HD areas for Aspen, Telluride, Eagle County overnight. Fun stuff. Just waiting.
