Plugins/Addons
FS Architect can be extended with plugin objects. Third party developers will be able to design scenery objects with advanced features and object property dialogs. The first plugin released is a seamless fences and walls object by Shaun Manners. Creating a fence or wall is as easy as drawing a line. This object shows off the true power of a plugin -- the software adjusts the wall segment length automatically so that the wall is seamless at the corners! This is impossible to achieve with a simple macro. The possibilities with plugin objects are endless!

Custom Runway Textures
Every real-world airport and runway has unique characteristics, materials, striping and signs of age and wear. FS Architect allows you to create runways using your own custom texture. This object supports night lighting textures, and uses the default FS runway lighting parameters. Give every airport it's own unique look!
Easy Photo Texture Grid (PTG)
To create scenery that is truly "As Real as it Gets", FS Architect provides the PTG tool. Large aerial DOQ photographs can be cut up into standard Flight Simulator textures, then easily assigned to cells in the PTG. The result is stunning photo-realistic ground scenery with perfect alignment, and minimum effort.
The PTG textures are displayed in Architect's Design View, so runways, taxiways, buildings, and other 3D objects can be perfectly aligned with the photo-realistic scenery.
FS Architect excels at airport design supporting the latest FS2004 compatible objects. Create runways with approach lighting, lighted taxiway markings, taxiway signs, 3D objects, communication facilities and navaids.
