Watch the grass move, trees sway and leaves fall at Fall City!


For the first time ever in Flight Simulator X, see a level of dynamic detail you never thought would be possible. Russell White is the acclaimed developer behind this beautifully located airport and he introduces some amazing new tech. In the fall, you'll see leaves falling from trees onto the ground. There are hyper-detailed aprons and runway and grass and trees so realistic you would swear that you're actually there. 1WA6 is a unique private airport surrounded by beautiful homes, some whose access is by crossing the main runway. With the world famous Snoqualmie Falls nearby, it is a wonderfully picturesque setting. You will be simply amazed at the stunning immersion and eye-popping hyper-detail of 1WA6 Fall City Airport - do NOT miss this one!

As usual, another ORBX masterpiece - just turn off crash detection before flying in.

Someone definitely needs to get in there with a lawn mower a bit more often :icon_lol:

:medals: :icon29:

Holy cow!!!
When I look at my own feeble efforts in scenery design, I really must say that this is nothing short of amazing.

Thanks for the head-up, I think I'll get this!

Cheers,
Mark
 
I'll have to get this just to see the wind in the grass and if it affects frame rates.
 
It doens't. Only when facing Seattle fps is affected but trees and grass does not affects fps.
 
Awesome little airport. Personally I don't need the trees that sway with the wind but hey, there's an option to turn it off so I am happy. One of the best airports so far!
 
I've got trees swaying but my grass is static, any ideas?

Swaying grass is mainly around the main hangar area where the rusted brown shed is. There is a sprinkling of it along the runway, but not too much as we did not want to impact frames too much.

Thanks John,
I'll keep my eyes open for those spots. Great scenery as always.
 
I installed the latest Orbx libs and then all of a sudden the runway had disappeared. Really odd but I then switched back to default and then pnw again and it worked again. Silly FSX trantrums. Looked good even without a paved runway though. :icon_lol:
