So if you upgrade FS Global 2010 to Ultimate - Europe/Africa you even save the S&H fee!Ĭustomers of other meshes will be able to purchase AFM as a DVD from our webshop. Users of FS Global Ultimate - Europe/Africa will find AFM as a seperate DVD in their box. You can even import and export AFM group files to share your selection with others or move it to another Flight Sim.ĪFM is a free DVD for all registered users of FS Global 2010 und FS Global Ultimate - The Americas. A proper scenery layer will be created automatically.

Of course not every airport will need an AFM. After installation of AFM, the picture above will look like this: Actually not only that, we created it for FSX AND FS2004, a total of about 48.000 airfields. So we here at PILOT'S took a generic approach and generated a flattenmesh for nearly EVERY airfield included in Flight Simulator. Of course this can not be done in a reasonable timeframe. We could manually check and amend all airports within Flight Simulator (24000+). Runways there will still have a wall or slope at their ends. This of course would correct only incorrect airport altitudes, but not the wrong concept of flat only airports. So, what can be done? Well, we could petition Microsoft to correct that. And the problems increase, the higher the resolution of the surrounding mesh gets. Whatever reason this error has, it does not look nice. Move them to the correct position and they perfectly fit into the terrain. Another common reason is, that some airfields simply are missplaced, because they are missplaced in the database Microsoft has used for placing them. Enter a correct terrain such as FS Global and this error leaps to the eye. Next in line is, that Microsoft has used a low resolution terrain scenery as default terrain in Flight Simulator in many areas and has amended the airports to fit the wrong terrain. So, of course every runway will have a problem with a high resolution terrain on its ends. Microsoft however has defined: in Flight Simulator every airport has to be flat. The most common is, that airports simply are not flat. Now, why is that? For those who have not read "Inside FS Global" (which we deliver with FS Global) follows a short explaination: There are several possible reasons. You have bought FS Global 2010 or Ultimate (The Americas Europe/Africa Asia/Oceania does NOT work with Next Generation) and admire the realistic looks your landscape has gotten recently? Good! But then you found, that at some airports scenery looks like that:
We are considering to offer this V2.0 soon as stand alone. It does work will all other airports even when using FS/FTX Global Vector!ĭoes NOT work with FS Global Ultimate - Next Generation, which comes with its own AFM2. AFM - Aerodrome Flattening Meshes (FS9/FSX)ĪTTENTION! This version of AFM was NOT designed to work with AEC corrected airports of FS/FTX Global Vector.
