They first took the original database collection in FSX, then increased it by adding more airports for better coverage and a larger amount of locations. They then used satellite images to copy real airports: \u201c<em>This technique involves editing each airport manually, which means particular attention to detail has been given to every single one of them, to bring them a step closer to reality.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What they mean is modelling every airport by establishing a perimeter, outlining all the runways, taxi lanes and parking spots, then assigning a material to each surface (either grass, dirt, stone or concrete) as the planes react differently to different surface materials.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally. They have created two higher groups to focus on for more detail: the \u2018Most Wanted Airports\u2019 for places that are the most popular in real-life and in-game (not <em>most wanted<\/em> as in because an airport robbed a casino, or murdered a political figure), and the \u2018Most Iconic Airports\u2019 for places that, presumably, are very famous (I\u2019m not a flight simulator guy, or an airport enthusiast for that matter, but are there famous airports? I\u2019m genuinely interested so please tell me).<\/p>\n<p>There are around 80 airports under the \u2018Most Wanted Airports\u2019 category, which received extra special treatment by providing more accurate \u201csurface definition\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>They didn\u2019t specify how many were under the \u2018Most Iconic Airports\u2019 category, but these even more <em>extra<\/em>-extra special treatment with uniquely modelled buildings and props to more closely match reality. They\u2019ve even terraformed certain landscapes to match them in their real environment.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve also improved the ambient life and airport traffic, by adding vehicles to airport parking lots, improving the ai and animations of cars, and even workers have been added who walk between areas (so now there\u2019s little tiny people you have to worry about running over).<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s even an XDK tool so that you can customise all the objects you want, or create custom scripted behaviours with your own objects and animations, and you can place them wherever you want.<\/p>\n<p>There is so much stuff in Microsoft\u2019s Flight Simulator it\u2019s almost unbelievable. Even I, a humble gamer who has never been interested in playing a flight sim, now wants to deep dive into this newer instalment and explore the world; soaring through the skies with my winged brethren.<\/p>\n<p>Are you excited for Microsoft\u2019s Flight Simulator?
