FSX KSC Launch Complex 39 Scenery

Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39 for FSX refreshes Cape Canaveral operations with a corrected VAB location, realistic Mobile Launch Platforms, and accurate Atlas-era tower cleanup. The scene adds Orbiter Processing Facilities, supporting complex buildings, and a properly placed helipad by the External Tank wharf, using stock textures for consistent visuals.

KSC Launch Complex 39, Florida (FL). This is a rebuild of Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39 which includes the Vertical Assembly Building (VAB) relocated to its proper location, Photo background, removal of the ficticious Mobile Launch Platforms (MLP's of which there are only three, not five) with the old style Atlas towers, and addition of three realistic MLP's. Orbiter Processing Facilities have been added along with the other LC-39 complex buildings. There is also a helipad adjacent to the External Tank receiving wharf where it belongs. All textures used are original FSX so there are no additional textures to add (the buildings were designed as close a possible to the originals using what is available in FSX).

Installation is a breeze...just unzip to the directory of your choice, then copy the "LC39" folder to your FSX "Addon Scenery" folder. Make sure you go into "settings, scenery, Add scenery", point to the "LC39" folder and hit OK, thats it...Happy flying.

Note: I have an older system and suffered no FPS hit at all with this scenery installed. If you should decide that you don't like the scenery, simply delete the "LC39" folder.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D scenery
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Place scenery in Addon Scenery

    Create a folder under FSX\Addon Scenery\ containing scenery and texture sub-folders.
  3. Activate in Scenery Library

    In FSX, go to Settings → Scenery Library → Add Area. Higher priority means it overrides lower entries for the same location.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
