As you can see, Terminal 5 is shown as expected to be in October 2008.

I have shown AES operating and it needs 5 credits for this.

Thanks for looking :)

Well that looks pretty impresive from the screenshots Peter - now if half the airbridges don't work, the parking assistance isn't switched on until 5 minutes after you taxi up to your gate, you have to wait hours to cross the southerly runway, you remote park to find the steps are there but not the buses - or vice versa, and you have to hold short of T4 to let aircraft out of your cul-de-sac then I'd say they've captured the spirit of EGLL perfectly :D

Cheers

Looks very nice Peter. Any impact on performance?

Difficult to say as I'm in the middle of converting all my Traffic to WOA from PAI, but I think the frame rates are actually better than the default FS9 Heathrow...Don't know how they have managed that!!

I'd say definately better than Heathrow Pro as well. I finally have a Heathrow that is smooth as silk with lots of ai!!

Thanks Aerosft.

Best wishes

Yes, I've been using this to test the AI as I gradually replace my PAI airlines with the same ones from WOA and I definitely feel that this scenery is very frame rate friendly :)

I've just purchased this scenery and I've also noticed an improvement with the fps over the Heathrow Pro. So far I'm liking this new scenery just as much as the Budapest one. Coolio

Thanks for that Marcus ;-) I'm tempted but I'm also tempted by GermanScenery areas being half price too. Decisions.. decisions :lol:

Well actually.. yes, I do but (and there are always buts..) while it seems that it runs better than Garry Summons Heathrow Pro, I'm currently struggling at 6fps with Garry Summons UK2000 (basic) edition plus CalClassics AI and a list of additional UK AI from the 60's so.. while it runs better than GS Heathrow Pro, I doubt it runs better than the default you get in either part 4. Things ran at an almost tollerable 12-14fps before I loaded up BOAC :roll:

Ideally, I'd prefer to run Wolfgangs 60's LHR but sadly.. it doesn't sit well with UKVFRPhoto and UKVFRTerrain :'( We'll see. I might crack yet ;-)
