Chiliad Airport(civilian) 1.0 by PostaL

First the boring part of reading:

WARNING high amount of props expect some fps loss.

High version:

1442 props
16   vehicles(includes two planes, one chopper)
21 	peds placed

Low version 1:

1441 	props
8	vehicles(includes one lazer jet)
1	ped placed(Fabian Larouche), three spawn automatically(two bench, one at atm)

Low version 2:

Same as low version 1 without any jet on parking tarmac. This is for the people that want to land and park the 'big one' 747.

I'll make more (lower)versions later on if needed.


I dont advise to play at night with rain. For me it hammers fps with all the lights. But im only on a 660ti so it could work fine for others. Clear nightsky is ok.


How to install: Unzip and Place the .xml file in your GTA V folder and load it using Guadmaz's Map Editor or place the .xml file in your GTAV / scripts / AutoloadMaps folder. I advise to only load this map because its very high on props.

Leave feeback, report bugs and or comment and press like if you like.

minor issues:

1.birds fly through the platform sometimes
2.hikers on Mt. Chiliad get stuck under platform once in a while, but its hardly annoying. 
3.the security door next to the runway close to the old Chiliad viewing platform is locked for now. I had it dynamic so you could pass it but the door would fall through the ground after saving and loading map again. It's an issue with mapeditor i suppose. Now its static and closed.
4.If you notice missing objects I advise to restart gta 5 and try to load the map again. 


The exciting part:

Whats about this map?? Please read:

Story:

Devin Weston holdings in cooperation with Skiver Construction Corporation and lifeinvader crowdfunding presents: Chiliad Airport. 
To handle the recent increase of hippies, lunatics, pilgrims, hikers and conspiracy theorists visiting Mt. Chiliad, Devin Weston needed more than just a silly tramway: An airport on top of Mt. Chiliad overviewing all of San Andreas. For Devin the sky is never too high!! After some small protests from local environmental groups, contruction began, and was completed after two years.


    "...Because frankly I'm rich enough to do whatever the fuck I want and you're poor enough to not ask me any goddamn stupid questions. Now, I mean that as a friend. Namaste." 
    -Devin Weston


Chiliad Airport featuring:

- Fully lighted runway (papi lights, CH W, CH E written with lights) with realistic markings.(treshold, aiming point markings, taxi markings) Chiliad east approach is open for landing. Chiliad west "never opens" because the tramstation antenna tower is in its way but the smaller planes can still clear it. The runway is 747 jet (landing(CH E)/take off) approved.

-Taxi/parking platform, with markings and lights also includes: 

1.Chiliad airport can park the 747 jet but only if its the only plane visiting. The 747 parking spot is marked with 747 lights.
2.Underground jetfuel connection points for refuel(cosmetic)
3.Two lighted/marked heli platforms: skylift chopper size approved
4.Skydive ramp: for skydiving, or something else?
5. The glasswalkway: Did somebody say yoga? Watch the magnificent Mt. Chiliad cliffs right under your feet.

To guarantee funding and silence enviromentalists protests, Devin Weston agreed to build a new viewing platform: the glasswalkway(breakable, dont shoot it, or maybe you should). The old platform is taken over by plane spotters. Devin, a fan of yoga, asked Fabian Larouche to do some yoga courses on the glasswalkway. 

Feel one with nature, on top of the world: Namaste.

6.Lowered serviceplatform: passenger access from tramway / Customs / Vehicle parking. Baggage handling.(The baggage will travel from the tramway underground up to the flightplatform,  a cosmetic idea not animated)
7. First person plane view taxiing/landing approved.

- Glide path circles for runway east landing: Because the Airport spawns a bit late I added glidepath yellow circle markers. When you fly through the second marker you should see the first part of the runway appear.

- Two multifunctional Air Traffic Control units hanging under runway east Chiliad to guide the pilots. WATCH YOUR STEP!! The ladders will give you access to the units and radar.

-Redone the upper Chiliad Tramway station entrance: Baggage handling for airport, atmmachine, drinks and snacks, new floors, removed rubbish bins. Turn right to find the stairs to the airport.
-Explore mt. chiliad under the platform. See the enormous pillars keeping the airport in its place. Chiliad airport is already nominated for the modern construction wonders award.(did you just made that up !?!)


Try something new:

- fly between the pillars of Chiliad airport
- make Fabian Larouche fall a long way
- reach McKenzie Field and land under 30 seconds with lazer jet 
- side quest: find the three hidden statues across the map.


tip: play at night for great atmosphere, and improving your pilot skills.


thanks for reading and enjoy,
