ACB-VLT Terminals & Jets

[cameron1991]

That looks great! 
But isn't that the old NW livery? (all will be old soon once the merger is complete...)
I'm not saying it was a bad decision (Far from it with the excellent job you've done!) but I'm wondering why the old livery was chosen over the new one?

But anyway, great job! And release 4 weeks away!? Even better news! 

[canuck3360]

actually Cameron NW still has quite a few in th eOlder(90's) Livery flying you more so see them on the A320's and a few 757's living here in Detroit and going by DTW(Northwest's Largest Hub behind KMSP) on a daily basis I see alot of NWA Aircraft.Even with the merger it'll be awhile before all the NWA Aircraft are painted into the new scheme(Delta is suposedly comming up with a new/new scheme for the Merger)

as to the pack voltaire I look forward for the release of the Airport but I'm more so happy for some new(er) Aircraft by you all to add to my airports

[pilotdaryl]

That looks very nice, Voltaire!
IMHO though, the wings look a bit too short...

I'm kinda new to the SimCity airport business, so bear with me...

You're doing a great job with this pre-fab airport. I'd like to know if it will be broken up into 1-tile segments and pieces so that I can use them to make a modular airport terminal, with the ATCT fitting in with the same theme (or fitting directly in as an attachment on the side or top of the main terminal)? Cause I prefer my airports to be larger than pre-fab airports would allow for...

Still, keep up the good work - there's always someone who prefers pre-fab airports to modular ones... (like I did up untiltwo weeks ago... )

Nice job 

[art128]

the newest Boeing look really nice 

[Simpson]

Looking fine, great work 

[Voltaire]

Thankyou everyone!

nerdly_dood we released exactly that format of Lots last year, and we're re-using the same terminal BATs for the prefabs. You can find the modular packs by searching "RMIP" and "ACB-VLT" on the simtrop exchange. Be prepared to spend some time with it -- the 4 volumes of RMIP alone have over 200 pieces available, and plenty more in our terminal packs  

The 757-300 fuselage is very long in proportion to the wings... overall length being 16 meters (52 feet) more than the wingspan. The 737NG wingspan is similar -- only 3.7 meters (12 feet) less. Considering the enormous increase in lifting capacity between the 739 and 753, shows just how powerful the 757's engines are!

The orthographic projection and high viewing angle in SC4 shortens apparent distances in many cases. The South view of the same aircraft shows the wings much wider than in the West view, but this gmax Front viewport shows them 100% correctly:



pardon the blocky texture effects on the fuse, it's a screenie not a render

In this pic, you can also see the exaggerated tail height necessary to overcome Z-axis shortening inherent to all SC4 camera angles.

that look nice

Yeah... It's only slightly exaggerated. Really, the tail fin is as tall(taller) than the rest of the plane! Great model you have there! I'm awaiting new sets of planes already!

[canuck3360]

great front view shot of it and yeah the 753's Engines do have quite alot of power behind them

[Voltaire]

Now for this week's post, I'd like to announce the newest addition to the ACAircraft fleet...





This Delta retrojet and launch customer ANA will be on the AC Functional Prefabs. Lot development is wrapping up so I'll have some nice screenies of the completed airports soon. 

[papab2000]

Amazing detail  Looks great!

　It is beautiful.

[art128]

that's amazing ! 

[sim-al2]

Is this SimCity 4 or Flight Simulator? I didn't think that a retro Delta scheme would look as good as it does on there! I think the cockpit might be just a little bit too pointy though. It looks a bit like a rocket with that thing on there. 

[ElPhantasmo69]

That's awesome! I've been dying to see the dreamliner ingame.

[ShadeSlayer]

Cool. I like the variety of types of planes.

Do you think you could maybe do a variety of Air Canada ones (I think you have a Jazz and one other) so I can have an Air Canada specific section in my airports?

[Ra1n]

Amazing stuff you're doing here.  Can't wait to see it released!  I'll be among the first in line to download it.

[mcarch]

Great Work!!... when are the new prefads coming out?
