London Heathrow

[Johnathan Pata]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anybody can help me with finding an airport scenery for EGLL that is FPS friendy (goes without saying as well as awesome graphics. My computer specs are in my signature. I also was wondering if you are considering EGLL for an airport. I know you guys are very busy and that you already have a poll on other airport but I figured might as well ask, it does not hurt

Hi!
I'm aware of 2 pw sceneries of EGLL: UK2000 and Aerosoft.

I would just download and try the demo version of Gary Summon's UK2000 Heathrow scenery V3. At least it's rather new and up to date and you can try if it is FPS friendly enough for your machine and your needs before buying it. At my FSX FPS are OK (not to say "good"). However I have ORBX England installed and a lot of AI traffic which is probably the biggest FPS limiter. Didn't buy it yet so far, just tried out the DEMO.

There is a now version of Aerosoft's "Mega Airport Heathrow" in the pipelines. But as you might have noticed it can take some time there to be released there. And they are not exactly well known for good FPS performance at big airports. I would certainly not grab their old outdated version.

The fact that EGLL wasn't included in the poll as well as the fact that there are 2 pw sceneries availible in a quite reasonable or good quality makes me think that FSDT has no plans for EGLL.

edit: Your specs are a lot better than mine (i5, not overclocked). So you shouldn't have too many problems with FPS at the mentioned airports.

The two sceneries for Heathrow are very high quality, no reason for FSDT to do a third.

EGLL UK2000 is a great Scenery with good FPS.
