I wonder why there aren't so many customer reviews for this scenery?!

So it is AES?

 

In your opinion, is it worth buying Heathrow now, or wait? Purely your opinion!

 

The scenery is not yet AES compatible out of the box. I believe as stated in this thread somewhere Simwings plan to release CTRL+J animated jetways probably because an AES update is not anticipated to be coming anytime soon.

 

Oliver at Aerosoft is I believe in the process of completely revamping AES and that is taking his time away from developing airport updates. To make an airport compatible requires a lot of work on the part of Aerosoft rather than Simwings.

Folks,

 

I will probably buy this scenery. However, worried i'll mess it up, is there any way to keep UK2000 V2 installed but deactivated, and have SW's version installed and active?  

 

Scenery Config Editor is your friend or you could just uncheck the scenery that is involved with UK2000 Heathrow. Be careful of "UK2000 Common Library", if you have other UK2000 scenery, you will need that to stay active.

ok, that should be fine then, with no other UK2K Scenery! Thanks!

So Aerosoft EGLL doesnt have moving jetways right now?

I don't own the scenery but I'm pretty sure you'll have to wait for next version of AES for that.

can someone clever tell me which one out of  

 

1.ORBX England  

2. Horizon // Playsims VFR England   

 

Uses the most VAS, hence trying to get rid of OOMS into EGLL.

 

I have both, orbx and all the playsims, england, scotland and ireland.  But only the ORBX England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Northern ireland is installed on my system

 

many thanks. 

I can't speak for Horizon, but in the London area, ORBX uses more VAS than FSX or P3D default because it adds many fully detailed London landmark buildings, such as the Shard.

 

I like ORBX England, so to avoid OOMs in the London area I deactivate addon EGLC and EGKK, and use a lower VAS plane such as the Wilco/Feelthere Airbus.

Aerosoft has released the updated AES if no-one has noticed it.

I've noticed it and I'm very happy about it!

The lack of customer reviews at the shops is mysterious to me.. I wonder why?!

Question popped into my head:

Does Aerosoft have static traffic? or is that just UK2K?

I expected this scenery to get many more hits and attention. But on contrary, lack of reviews or comparings with the other scenery, is somewhat suspicious. I also wonder why. Would like to buy it, but don't like buying into unknown.

I only have orbx eu and every time I flew into an airport with the 777 I would have to deactivate it because the VAS was so high. Orbx just released New libraries and one of the fix mentions new autogen description file and that has made a big difference in VAS. With Heathrow xtended and the 777 my VAS was right around 3.2gb so its a little better than before.
