This scenery comes with a .exe installer. It is in spanish only. I tried to run the program anyway but the install failed everytime. The only thing it seemed to install was another .exe file. When I clicked on that, essentially nothing happened. If you don't speak spanish, this scenery is probably not for you.

Non-sense.....if you know anything about installing scenery you can install it very easily. I usually install all of my add-on scenery's manually anyway as I covert dds/bmp's to DXT5 w/mips (just incase). I have found Fernando's scenery files very fulfilling and enjoyable.

I only can agree partly regarding the nice scenery. If you are looking for just eye-catching stuff only useable while flying at daylight you are partly right. And you obviously need specific libraries and their texture files in order to display it correctly. I got ugly black areas on the runway, taxiways and aprons (where parking spots are) and I have a lot of addon-libraries installed.

 

I missed textures called by the following BGL's and causing black polygons and missing objects (obviously the jetways):

* maarten_jetway_lib.BGL (looks suspiciously to me like a third party's work)

* maarten_grd_lib.BGL (the same here)

* MMPR marks.bgl (probably forgotten)

* Furthermore I saw a black carport I didn't care about (but having missing textures as well).

 

At night you have the typical illumined fields that are showing that the author didn't care for a night texture.

 

Even worse: the airport cannot work at all as no parking spot is connected to the runway. The author used everywhere GA parking instead of gate-typed parking places. No AI airliner will show up (on an international airport).

 

I wanted to mail directly to the author but failed because there is no readme included in the package opening a contact possibility (I would have written in English).

 

As I'm developing sceneries myself I helped myself as well be deleting the error causing files. Now it looks nice (probably not as it could) and everything works as I changed the parking type and got quite a lot traffic now.

 

At a first glance it might be nice nice, but it's really sloppy done regarding some important details.

 

Regarding installation: The .exe worked fine for me, even the possibility to install into a dummy directory (I don't speak Spanish as well). However, I prefer zipped Sceneries not blowing up the Registry.

I seem to be experiencing the same issue with missing textures and no gate assignments. Too bad, otherwise it would have been a nice scenery to fly to. Will be uninstalling it.
