The long anticipated "RealTurb Europe" package is now released, being the pre-final package before reaching (with the rest of RealTurb packages) a worldwide coverage with RealTurb effects!
"RealTurb Europe" covers the whole European continent with the RealTurb effects (see coverage map in screenshots section)!
A complete terrain analysis is done, inducing the appropriate effects, which are not limited to the terrain in the vicinity of the airports! Instead every single hill/mountain/terrain within the continent of Europe, is analyzed in terms of aircraft position and prevailing winds, inducing dynamically the expected real world effects of turbulence, wind shifts, speed fluctuations and windshear, into a dynamically created lateral and vertical envelope to match real life behavior.
And all this is done automatically without any user input required, raising the immersion to the top level!
Now, just like in real life, every take off / approach will feel different depending on the weather conditions! Wind coming from the sea or from flat land area, will be much less demanding compared to wind coming from a hill or mountainous area.
From RealTurb Europe v1.6+ Thermals and Ridge lift is also simulated, offering a realistic soaring effect to glider pilots!
Features include:
Realistic turbulence effects
Realistic speed fluctuation effects
Realistic wind shifting effects (Requires Activesky for Prepar3D v4.4 / v4.5 +)
Realistic wind shear effects (Requires Activesky for Prepar3D v4.4 / v4.5 +)
Thermal effects (Requires Activesky for Prepar3D v4.4 / v4.5 +)
Ridge lift effects (Requires Activesky for Prepar3D v4.4 / v4.5 +)
Altitude/effects intensity envelope dynamically and realistically calculated based on surrounding terrain.
Complete coverage of the continent of Europe (see coverage map at the screenshots section) with every single hill/mountain analyzed.
Easy installation
No user input/setup required for the effects to work. All is analyzed automatically!
No performance impact.
Compatible just with default Prepar3D v4.4 / v4.5 +, however to get the best out of it,
Activesky for Prepar3D v4.4 / v4.5 + is recommended.
Compatible with any aircraft, being default or add-on.
Supported Prepar3D version is v4.4 / v4.5 + even though it should work without any issues on any v4.0+ version.
NOTE: "RealTurb Greek Airports" and "RealTurb Summer Destinations" must be uninstalled before installing "RealTurb Europe", as they are also included in this package.
