When sometimes one get unlucky...

Great days of work at Pathenosim this weekend. We was ready to release some new screenshot of the new redesigned terrain when something of scaring happens....we try to load the 3d model of terminal (about 1 year of work) in gmax and we got the terrific "Unable to open file..."

I at least start to crying!!! Neither will work to recover the file (3Mb approximately)....

But i have to say thank You to the people at fsdeveloper.com. This guy released the most powerful tools for fs design...then i convert my MDL file of terminal to 3ds format and reimport to 3DStudioMax.

After a long night of rework (texture, polygons, etc..) i recovered almost all the entire terminal...

Phew!!!

Just to let You know what happen behind the scenes...see You very soon with the new screenshot!

Gianni

Works restarted right now!

I'm very pleased to announce that works on Milan Linate X have been resumed!

Now with the helps of a new hardware I'm sure that works can be finished in not so much time! Thanks to everybody for Your patience and support in the last year and half of wait!

Next some screenshot of a today flight with my developer colleague to test it in FSX! Now the building models are native FSX, so they are compatible also with P3D V2.2.

Stay tuned for further updates!

Milano,Linate X - Front Terminal car parking

Something change in this last year in Linate. New car parking arises, especially in front of terminal, so i had to redesign things...

Parking starts from main airport entry

Right for Taxies, center for Buses, left for cars

It develops till the front of the terminal

You know what? I like this so much! :)

Milano Linate X - Improvements continues

Today i'll show You another couple of screenshot about the improvements on building textures. This time we talk about south cargo zone, really nice viewing when you'll approach runway 36. As usual all screenshots are taken from Gmax.

The same area with added buildings

Milano Linate X - Some little improvements

One of the things that i'm doing now is to optimize and sharp textures, having found new interesting procedures in photoshop. Work was mainly focused on terminal and hangar buildings....let's see some improvements. Pictures where all taken from Gmax.

New textures for Terminal. And also some new signs...

The Emporio Armani gains its eagle. And lit very well at night.

The ENAV radar complex is finished. Radar antenna is rotating in the simulator

Another example of new-sharp textures for the cargo area.

Next tasks will be the optimization of the area of front terminal, and the creation of the new parking lots. Hope to share soon the new improvements!

ParthenoSim dead? Oh no...not at all!!! :)

Ok, time to explain what happened in these months...basically i'm facing three annoying things that influence the project. Let's get explain ;)

Point one: project in NOT dead, it is only slowing its shaping, essentially because i'm working on a really vintage PC that led me to difficult test the scenery also on FS2004. Soon i hope to change it with a brand new high-end computer to drastically imp

rove my throughput.

Point two: i'm facing some major personal problem with my professional life. This implies that i'm using my time to do interviews with companies and found a new job. It's crisis time also for me...but i'm not desperate...i'm from south Italy and our people is always smiling and fighting with positive mood for their things :)

Point three: burocracy...yes, this is the cancer that kill new start-up in Italy before they born. As my publisher request a valid VAT ID to do (obviously) invoicing to support the selling, i'm exploring how i can get one having also a permanent contract with another company. Yes, i know it can sound a bit odd, but surely i cannot live and eat only making scenery, not at this time :)

I think that is right to share with simmers these things and I'm confident to give a solution to every point in a shorter time...in the meantime i'm still working on project and soon i will show some goodies for you all. This project is more over the "point of no return" so it cannot dead...:)

I'll keep in touch in a while.
