Hi !

Here is a pack of 4 helipads with standard shapes :

Square
Octogon
Hexadecagon (16 sides ; yes, I had to check on Google to be sure)
Circle
2 ramps
2 stairs
4 light insets (red,green,blue and white)
3 pillars assemblies
3 metallic nets

Textures :

Everything is included, what you see here are just exemples, that's up to you to modify and write your own hospital / worldwide company / mum's name on the landing area :)
1 dedicated texture for each shape / common textures for metal, cement, normal and rough maps, etc..

Physics :

The invisible collision volume matches 100% the shape of the helipads. Be carefull not to hit the handrails while landing ;)

How to use :

You can not JUST place the folders under your community folder like a standard mod, this asset is for modders

Place the content of the ZIP into the project you're working on. Final path should looks like "(...)YourProject\PackageSources\modelLib\GBZH35_Helipad_Circle/" (for example)
Do not modify any name in the files
If you don't see the pads/textures on your project, TRIPPLE check the names for ALL xml, bin, textures, etc.. this is 99% of the issues :)
Read the comments, it can help

cc0textures.com & cdn.cgbookcase.cloud for PNG I used as basis metal textures
@epicfool for ideas, obj files and support !
Please mention my name if you use the helipads in your own projects, here or not, would be much apreciated !

Hope you'll enjoy it. Do not hesitate to paste a link showing the helipads at your favorite area !

Pefect, extremely great !!

Thanks for creating these helipads. I was trying to follow some other tutorials and could not get them to work. Using these with the tutorial from Patriot Six made it super easy. Good job!

What an amazing collection of helipads!

My entry into scenery development and motivation to dive deeper.

The library objects can be perfectly customized to personal needs, just great.

Thanks so much, that you have shared it in this way!

5 stars for sharing this, but really too big files for nothing more : thousands of useless faces , 4k texture for one color .........

Hi,

I used your lovely helipads for a "non-supported" area in Denmark 😊

I hope to make more helipad landingzones in the near future.

Hello, great mod. However i am having difficulties replacing pad texture. I made my own, but i can't seem to find in blender, wich one is the .png texture on the object ? between the collision and reflection ( i am a beginner ). In blender, it doesn't seem your texture are seen, for the mesh nets. I wanted also to cut in half your square net, as my helipad as only half mesh, but it breaks the model. Any chances you can help ? thanks a lot!

Really nice work 😊 I'm using them in the Okavango delta area. On the next update can you texture the underside of the main helipad landing surface so it's double sided please? At the moment if you stand under them you can see straight through them. Kev

I've used your Helipad pack in my North Europe oil/gas offshore installations pack to make the rigs landable. https://flightsim.to/file/5794/north-sea-oilrigs
Thank you - awsome work 😃

CaptOle

Thanks, exactly what i was looking for, could someone share some easy tutorial to add them to some building or location? Thank you.
PD: I know Asobo never will add some heliports to the Islands where i live... Cuz I am not living in USA or France, 😀

Yes, many thanks for the update. Wasn't expecting lights too. Brilliant.

Thanks for the update. You are awesome.

hey thx for their models, i've add one at "Uniklinikum Mainz (Germany)" - (scenery soon) - but if you're able do build only plattforms without stairs in an update? would be nice 😊

callsign1065

Fantastic work, I'll stop annoying you now 😊

Great package! I'm in the process to update a local field with a working helipad and I noticed that MSFS had no great default lamps etc. I planed to build something myself but then I found this package where you already solved this.

I'm going to upload a new version of my ESGP Säve Flygplats using this any day now.

I've gotten this to work as it is and it's wonderful. However, what happens if I need to place multiple helipads of the same type in one project with different custom textures for each? For example I'm placing the same square helipad but each one has different markings for weights, etc. I can't see any way of doing that without renaming the model files to create a second model and you have stated not to rename any of the files. Anything I'm missing on how to get this done?

im having this same iisue too,have you found any resolution mate?

Hi very nice work however if I try to change the helipads textures I do not succeed!

I keep the names original, just change the textures but name is the same...still....no change when I load it in the Editor.

What am I doing wrong?

Please advise if you can.

Thank you in advance, Frank.

Just one question from a designer newbie: how do I manage to texture the circle pad which is obviously not bound to a texture file. Do I need to use third party like blender...? All other shapes have textures by default

You mean that you do not see the texture GBZH35_Helipad_Circle.png that you are supposed to see? Instead you see (default) purple squares? If you change lines 717 and 718 in GBZH35_Helipad_Circle.gltf to read: "name" : "GBZH35_Helipad_Normal", "uri" : "GBZH35_Helipad_Normal.png" you get the correct png

Is there anyway to make the light visible from far away. It seems they only show when you get about a half mile away.
