EDDK in the scenery objects database
As mentioned above user laserman created a nice custom scenery for EDDK. Some parts of that scenery found their way into the scenery object database and replaced existing generic buildings. So these will also be available for users not aware of the custom scenery. This is a documentation of those objects. The history of the EDDK custom scenery is available at the forum.
| Building | Model Id | Model file | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Terminal 1 | #3474621 | EDDK-Terminal1.xml | Texturing of some parts is still missing. Center of the model is the OSM line "Kaffee-Filter" (218043449), which is object "Vorfeldkontrolle" in the AC3D file. |
| Terminal 2 | EDDK-Terminal2.ac | Uses a copy of the Terminal1 texture file. The correct object location (50.880773, 7.119698) appears to be too far into the grass on apron D, but it complies to its OSM location. The EDDK terrain of apron D apparently is not correct. Meanwhile it was moved completely to the grass for getting it out of the way to the old T2. This situation is waiting for someone with a good idea for solving it. |
