Aerosoft Keflavik X Manual INTRODUCTION Keflavik Airport is not only the main international airport in Iceland; it is also often described as the bridge between Europe and America. Being the biggest airport in a radius of 1.500 km it had a major importance to the U.S. Army in World War II for refueling aircraft on their way to Europe. Today, as commercial and military aircraft can travel huge distances without refueling, Keflavik airport is not the bridge between the U.S.

Aerosoft Keflavik X Manual SEASON TOOL This addon includes a tool to adjust seasonal textures. To start the Tool navigate to the Keflavik (FS2004) or Keflavik X (FSX) folder in your windows start menu. The affected textures are mainly ground images but also roof textures to render snow-covered roofs in winter. Start the tool and choose the season you will be selecting in the simulator. Press “apply” and exit the tool, start Flight Simulator and you will immediately see the difference.
Aerosoft Keflavik X Manual DISPLAY SETTINGS In order to change your scenery settings, go to Settings -> Display Note: All other settings not mentioned here are up to you. They don’t actually affect the scenery very much. Keep in mind to do your settings with care otherwise you may overload your system. GRAPHICS MENU Target frame rate set to Unlimited is strongly recommended. Global texture resolution should be at Very high to get the full detail in textures.
Aerosoft Keflavik X Manual SCENERY SETTINGS Mesh is important for this scenery. Set Mesh Complexity to 100 and resolution to 5 meters. Texture resolution should be at 1 m or less to get the best resolution of the aerial image under the 3D objects. Scenery Complexity strongly affects the speed of the scenery. Start with Extremely dense and reduce that if your system finds it hard to cope. Autogen Complexity: Iceland has very few trees and other vegetation.
Aerosoft Keflavik X Manual TRAFFIC SETTINGS If you use an AI traffic AddOn like MyTraffic or Ultimate Traffic you will have realistic air traffic at Keflavik airport. To achieve the most realistic experience you should set the airline density and general aviation density to 50-60%.
Aerosoft Keflavik X Manual F.A.QS. Q: Is this add-on DX10 compatible? (FSX) A: No. Q: Is this add-on compatible with other add-ons like UTE or FS Global? A: There should be no problem with any other addon. Q: There seem to be issues with the airport lighting at day/night transitions. Is this normal? A: No but it isn't curable. FSX sometimes has its own ways of switching day/night textures.
