One for the artists
12.2.1 is out now, and the Gateway is now accepting submissions for airports authored in the current update. 12.2.1 represents a massive update dedicated to Gateway & scenery artists everywhere, with a variety of new assets, inspired directly by community feedback.
The art team have done an immense job with this update, and really deserves their flowers for this update…
Now as for “community feedback”, here is a list of collected results. Not everything will be displayed here, neither is this list representative of things we are definitely producing. I think the key takeaway here is “RELAX!” This won’t be the last time we add new art to the simulator (and we’re already underway on more items.)
On with the show…
A tip for future reference…
For 12.2.1, people have constantly been asking for a list of all assets, as they do not have any tool themselves to see the full range of new art.
In fact… you do. You do not need to wait for us to tell you! Simply open WED, and filter the library list to “Newly Released Objects.” You do not need the latest version of WED either to see the full list (although you will for uploading to the Gateway!)
Hangars
Before we get to the rest of the art assets, we do have to talk about ‘Hangars and Sheds.’ This was one of the items you guys have eagerly requested from our mini-survey a few months ago.
It would seem someone at Laminar locked Petr in his home, and drove him to insanity. Insanity really is the only way to describe the sheer number of hangars in this update. I can’t even show all of the new hangar assets here (about 1/10th of the actual size) but Petr has ensured that each Hangar type comes in multiple sizes + the option to use obj or facade-based hangars. IN ADDITION, he’s also added different sizes and options for Hangar doors, so the customisation for artists is endless (quite literally, the number of permutations is too big to calculate)!
For further documentation on these hangars, I would highly recommend you check out the article below:
Gabled Hangars
T-Hangars
Side Hangars
Long Hangars
Arched Hangars
Hangar Doors
Red & White Utility Sheds
Airport Garages
Art Assets
Most of these have been brought to you by Justin. These will also play important roles as we slowly re-position ourselves towards next-gen scenery!
Airport Lighting
Airport lighting options come in multiple sizes and the option for Sodium vs LED.
Firetrucks
Colored Ground Polygons
Angled Roofs
Helicopter Dollies
Construction Vehicles
Emergency Ambulances & Police Cars
Cranes
Airport/Construction Cranes & Scissor Lifts
Size Category F Jetways
Some people have asked what a “Size Category F” is….
Zermatt has a secret…
12.2.1 also includes a new custom Heliport… LSEZ – Zermatt. Expertly crafted by Cristiano and Jan, this scenery holds a trick that may be useful for scenery creators. The glass has a feature we believe is undocumented called…
ATTR_layer_group blended
This helps mitigate some of the draw order issues previously experienced by artists for transparent materials.
Gateway Updates
Finally a huge thanks again to our Gateway artists. We have 613 airport updates/or additions for 12.2.1. (Not every airport is represented; the list is around 98% complete)
