Microsoft Flight Simulator Cape Town & Okegawa Airfield Get New Screenshots; Molokai Airport Released

Today third-party developers have graced Microsoft Flight Simulator with a new release and new assets for upcoming scenery add-ons.

First of all, Aerosoft and Terrapearl Studios launched Molokai Airport (PHMK) in Hawaii. It’s currently available on the publisher’s own store for €13.32 including applicable VAT.

Below you can watch a trailer and read an official description and features list.

Welcome to Molokai – Known as the “Friendly Island” where no building is taller than a coconut tree!  

This rendition of Molokai Airport is extremely carefully hand crafted, packed filled with detail to include absolutely hand-crafted and custom pavements/tarmac, countless custom objects and features from a fully modeled baggage claim area interior to tie-down ropes in the General Aviation ramp.  This release also comes with beautiful and custom night lighting which includes custom taxiway light models with a “halo” effect.  

This airport is serviced by Mokulele Airlines with non-stop service to Honolulu, Kalaupapa, and Kahului.  What are you waiting for? Load up your Cessna Caravan 208 in Mokulele Airlines colors or your favorite airplane and enjoy some inter-island flights through this one-of-a-kind pristine area of the world!

Features:

• 100% Full PBR technologies used
• HDR Lighting
• Slew of carefully hand-crafted objects carefully placed using the most recent data available
• Custom, painstakingly hand-crafted pavement, showcasing all imperfections including dirt, cracks, patches, and 3D effect on edges (illusion of thickness)
• Added missing vegetation data in areas surrounding the airport
• Hundreds of hand placed 3D grass, shrubs, weeds, and much more
• Added road textures to airport and surrounding areas
• Plenty of clutter (crates, barrels, 3D airport workers, vehicles, etc.)
• Corrected Mesh
• Very detailed terminal with partial interior (rental car area, baggage claim)
• Proper airport data (VASI light position, parking spots)
• Quick support and updates as the SDK evolves

Next is a new gallery of screenshots for Orbx’s Cape Town city pack which will enrich South Africa and was announced yesterday.

Last, but not least, Gate15Scenery released a comprehensive gallery of its upcoming Okegawa Airfield (RJT1) near Tokyo, Japan. As you can see, it includes plenty of additional areas like the nearby racing track and driving school.

The scenery is undergoing final checks and should be released soon.
