Drzewiecki Design Aiming to Release Tokyo Scenery Before 2020 Olympic Games

Over seven months ago, Drzewiecki Design announced Tokyo, complete with city and airports. Previews have been few and far between since then, with a brief update emerging in August.

Today, the developer has elected to share the current progress of the airport through a Facebook post, outlining their current future plans for the scenery.

"Apparently, it is reasonably hard to prepare any epic-looking previews as most of the work has not been exported to the sim yet (there is no reason to do so at this stage) and renders are not how it will look in the sim," the developer explained with regards to a lack of previews.

"A lot of work has been put into ground poly and secondary buildings which must be done but it does not provide the "cool" look yet. What you see on in-sim Narita screenshots is just one of the WIP export versions, it is not the final one."

"We have received a lot of support from our customers resource-wise and we are very grateful for that, "Drzewiecki Design said in response to those who answered to their appeal in the initial announcement for photographic material and information. "This will definitely help us putting even more realistic details into the project."

However, the upcoming Microsoft Flight Simulator has forced Drzewiecki Design to alter their plans slightly, due to the expected coverage of the city.

"In general - due to the nature of the upcoming FS2020 we have focused on the airports rather than the city. They will most probably be released as 2 separate airport products with Haneda including city landmarks.

"The plan is to have the airports P3D-FS-XP-compatible, with all the features we had so far (including terminal/hangar interiors, detailed gates with vgds/jetways etc) plus new features that became available lately. The goal is to have the products completed before the Olympics and in the meantime there will be some other releases too. More about that soon."

The developer released Chicago City XP & Chicago Airports XP towards the end of last year, similarly to how they have released some scenery for X-Plane in the past.
