Scenery developer X-Codr has released V1.5 of their Sedona UHD scenery. Located in the wilderness of Arizona, Sedona is famed for its rockey red landscape, canyons and forests. X-Codr's rendition covers Sedona Airport (KSEZ), and sees nearly 150 square kilometres of 1 pixel-per-foot photoreal coverage.

The update includes new custom 3D rock models, custom 10-metre mesh, the town of Sedona modelled and vastly improved airport modelling. In addition and despite its version number, the update brings with it a long change-log:

Ultra-detailed airport

• Detailed buildings, most with a texture resolution of four pixels per inch
• Detailed PBR Normal maps add detail and stunning lighting effects
• Realistic HDR Lighting dynamically illuminates the airport
• Several buildings feature interiors, with the restaurant being the most detailed
• Ultra HD ground textures with normal maps for incredible reflections.
• Ultra HD decals add incredible detail to orthophotos without significant tiling
• Two of the hangars feature animated doors and detailed interiors
