X-Plane Gateway

The first time I began scenery development was as a small-time hobby in my free time, editing some of my favourite airports for the X-Plane Scenery gateway. This was where my interest and experience began, after being an avid flight simmer for some years I decided to branch out into the world of SDK.

Expertise: Ground Layouts Environment Design 3D Objects Optimisation

"An incredibly helpful learning experience, teaching me the structural importance of attention to detail and flight simulator asset performance."

After gaining experience through online learning, friends and other developers, I decided to make the bold move of creating my own scenery solo under the studio name "HD4XP", working on projects such as Pisa Intl. and a small GA airfield in the UK. These airports still remain "in progress" and may feature in a future collaboration/release.

Expertise: 3D Modelling Texturing Ground Layouts Vegetation Engine

"An introduction to the business & marketing side of scenery development, building deployment workflows that have scaled into my current work."
