Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted October 25, 2007 Aerosoft Share Posted October 25, 2007 I am going to be very brief on this one. 1) We got a major (very complex, very compact, things do not get worse for a scenery designer) airport available for FSX 2) I get an almost fully solid 20 fps on the whole airport (see http://www.forum.aerosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=13688) 3) Now you guys, go and buy this one. It's the first major airport for FSX that has the performance we all needed for so long. http://www.aerosoft-shop2.com/products/hea.../heathrowx.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Aerosoft Share Posted October 25, 2007 Will it work with Vista? Looks very nice but i dont want OOMs. Thank you! Yes, it will have no problems with Vista. As explained, Vista only has the defragmentation issue when it starts to run out of memory. This scenery alone will not cause this. We currently know of no FSX add-on (well programmed) that causes it on a clean FSX. It is only in combination of memory hungry applications and add-ons that the issue appears. And to repeat, it is a Vista issue, NOT a issue we can solve in our add-ons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smsmith 0 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Hi, During instalation of Heathrow 2008 fsx it warns me that i must have SP1 installed,Why?

wedge 5 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Hello. I've a little question too, I've seen during the installation that it asked at some point if we're using SP1 or Acceleration, so my question is do I need to reinstall the scenery after upgrading FSX with the acceleration pack that have yet to be released here in France ? As there is this question I think there is some difference between both options. But just wanted to be sure of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Autopiloth 462 Posted October 26, 2007 Developer Share Posted October 26, 2007 Hi, @smsmith SP1 is mandatory for HeathrowX, otherwise you´ll get lots of problems with the ground layers which are not placed correctly onto the new round earth of FSX. Microsoft solved this issue with SP1. @wedge When updating to Acceleration you must reinstall HeathrowX with the Acceleration option. Both (HeathrowX SP1 and Acceleration) version are different to match the changes that were made to the FSX with Acceleration, in parts not backward compatible to SP1. Acceleration contains the SP2 for FSX. Later there will be a free download of SP2 at microsoft. So far future SP2 users should also install the ACCELERATION version of HeathrowX Thorsten, sim-wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavinbarbara 2 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Thanks for this! I bought the FS9 version as that's my primary sim and I'm really enjoying it. I'm downloading my free FSX version and will see how it goes. Regardless of any performance issues I may or may not have with FSX, please accept my thanks for this free additional product. Much appreciated! Gavin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurizio G 0 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 I bought Mega Airport Heathrow X for FSX and between the available files there is also an update to the version 1.01. In the releases notes it says that it works both for FS 2004 and FSX but in the main installation mask it says that it's for FS 2004. So i should install it or not? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Autopiloth 462 Posted November 14, 2007 Developer Share Posted November 14, 2007 HI, 1.01 update files are only for FS2004 users who have downloaded the "old" 1.0 version at the first days. FSX versions dont require the 1.01 version. Thorsten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Roethlisberger 0 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I don't know if it is caused by the airport, but since I installed Heathrow, I can't fly the A320 anymore. It always freezes at the window view... I think I have to order the 737... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always freezes at the window view... I think I have to order the 737... In FS2004 or FSX? In FS2004 it is very hard for an scenery to crash an aircraft. In FSX it is a bit easier as aircraft and scenery share the same display routines but it is still hard to see how a specific scenery could crash a specific aircraft. What could be happening is that the complex scenery and complex aircraft together push your graphics memory to problems though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Roethlisberger 0 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 FSX. So it is official, I need a new GeForce Edit: What I can add: My airbus was only doing well, when I reinstalled the whole sim and the only addon that were installed were the DC-10, Helgoland and Lukla.
