Spanning over 52 square miles, KDEN - Denver International Airport is enormous by any metric. It holds the title of largest airport in the United States by land area, and 2nd largest in the world. Further, its workforce of over 35,000 service over 77 million passengers annually, making Denver the 3rd busiest airport in the United States, and 6th busiest in the world in 2023.

Visitors to Denver International Airport are treated to breathtaking views of the Rocky Mountains, and a unique atmosphere promoted by Denver International Airport’s award-winning architecture. The most iconic of these being the peaked roof of the Jeppesen terminal, reflective of the snowcapped Rocky Mountains, and the historical Colorado landscape that was once dotted with Native American teepees. Given its size, scenic views, and diverse domestic and international routes, Denver International Airport is an excellent destination, or starting point, for any flight simmer!

This scenery is the product of over 2 years of development, with the goal of creating the best rendition of Denver International Airport we could. Some of the features you can look forward to are:

  • Highly detailed models and high-resolution textures

  • Custom models for all airport buildings.

  • Custom models for all static ground equipment.

  • All terminal concourses have full 3d interiors in passenger-accessible areas, with numerous POIs (such as aircraft displays hanging from the ceiling).

  • Lite interiors for Jeppesen terminal, GA buildings, and control towers.

  • 3d people throughout the concourses

  • Custom highly detailed jetways

  • High-quality ground textures:

  • Tons of variation in pavement to match the real surfaces.

  • Custom grunge textures for wear (oil spills, erosion, dirt build up, skids, etc).

  • Accurate lines for airport vehicle roads, taxi/hold/edge lines, safety zones, etc.

  • 0.5 foot resolution orthoimagery for excellent clarity beyond just taxiways.

  • Hand traced asphalt zones on roads and parking lots so they have the correct material and are sharper.

  • Orthoimagery naturally blended for seamless blending with surroundings.

  • Fully functional airport

  • Accurate taxi and runway distance remaining signs

  • Custom animated runway guard and wig-wag lights

  • Realistic spacing on taxiway edge and center line lights, including higher density on curves.

  • Accurate as of early 2024

  • Optimized for performance.

  • Strong performance on a wide range of systems

  • All models feature LODs to reduce detail at a distance.

  • Large models are split into small individual sections to allow for more aggressive savings on things you can’t see, while preserving visual quality for things you can see.

  • Many models feature ultra-low poly imposters for LODs, which are incredibly low poly models with baked textures, that look nearly identical beyond very close range, allowing for significant performance gains, with minimal visual loss
