Heathrow Xtended - Trees at runways/taxiways


BudSpencer

Recommended Posts

Hi there!

I've had a lot of performance problems at Heathrow so far which I tried to solve by disabling various features in England / around London. But now there is a very strange problem: There are trees growing from several taxiways and runways at EGLL Xtended - big ones and small ones.

Last Thing I did was uninstalling ORBX England. So, if there should ever had been any trees there, they should have been disappeared now, but not vice versa. Any ideas what could be wrong??

Regards, Dominik

It does matter, when you made errors during the installation, e.g. setting FTX Central to Europe instead of Global when installing a Non-Orbx Addon. Or did you run the AEC tool after installing EGLL?

I personally have no problem running EGLL with FTX Global, Vector and England.

Yes I've run the AEC tool. And I remember having set the ORBX central to Global (Hybrid mode) at all times.

Just thought that such a problem was already heard of any time..

Do you think I should adress ORBX on the problem?

OK, I've forgotten that I have deactivated the Heathrow Xtended terrain entry in the scenery library to help performance increase. Now, I've reactivated it and the trees are gone.

However 2 questions remain open:

1) Shouldn't a deactivation of terrain data remove objects instead of adding any?? If the airport is only usable with the terrain entry, why is there a seperate entry for it?

2) Is there any other way to help performance increase?? I've lowered the settings in P3D2 already, my AI traffic is at a minimum, ORBX England is moved away and REX coulds resolution is now 512x512. And performance is still so bad there, especially concerning VAS memory. If I select the PMDG 777 at EGLL for example I get a OOM before I can even touch the controls - while at other big, busy and complex addon airports such as KLAX, KDEN, KIAD,... this is not the case. I know the 777 eats a lot of performance. But this way there is hardly any advanced airliner that I can use at LHR. And this is exactly the kind of aircraft that is present at the real airport. The AS A320 has problems, too.
