Will other scenery get the Zurich treatment?

Great news about the updates to LSZH. Will any of FSDreamteam's other airports get the Zurich treatment. KJFK and KORD would be great to see with the same techniques. Thanks in advance.

Yes, of course, it was already said in another thread.

KORD will be the next one, since the airport was upgraded too. We are going in chronological order, updating our oldest sceneries first. Zurich had to be the first, both because it was our first released scenery, and because the real world airport changed.

Simbio kindly replied to the message I sent him last month, confirming that Geneva will be updated after the Hawaiian airports have been finished - great news!  ;D

A quickie question on your texturing method for Zurich & Chicago...current texture resolution (Dallas) or higher resolutions like LAX?

Thanks, Darryl

PS...like your competitive nature against the bigger developer!!!  ;D

KLAX doesn't have higher resolution compared to KDFW, it's more stratified with more complex materials, and it uses 4096x4096 textures, but much less in number, which is more efficient than using many 1024x1024. What really makes KLAX better, it's the 3d modeling and the shadowing, but none of this applies to Zurich and Chicago updates, which will cover just the ground (apart for the obvious new Terminal B at Zurich).
