Also forgot to mention something, when I do command TAB-S it shows me a display from SODE of what the nearest operable jetways are, in the display it says the next operable jetway near me is 6.5 NM away. I thought this might be a little interesting detail

I've disabled my Cartanya jetways temporarily and installed the SODE ones.

I'm pretty sure I know what you haven't done. You haven't extracted the SODE folder for EGLL into the parent Sim-Wings London Heathrow Professional.

Once that's done you need to open that folder and double-click SODE-ON.BAT.

That will disable the default jetways and copy the AJS_EGLL_SODE.xml file into C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\xml.

Once that is done the GSX menu will show Operate Jetway. Select that option and the SODE jetway moves to the left door. It will have HSBC on the jetway.

If you prefer the Cartanya ones run the SODE-OFF.BAT and the default jetways will return.

Then follow the Cartanya instructions to enable his.

 

It seems like I cant find the "SODE folder" that you are talking about, where did you find this folder

The optional download from your Aerosoft account.

Sorry I didnt buy the product on aerosoft, I bought the scenery from simmarket.

@Ray Proudfoot I found that folder that you are talking about and finally got the jetway to work, Thank you very much for your work over the last couple of days. I really appreciate it.

Glad I was able to help. 😁 Now the real challenge. Learning Concorde. Have you flown it much?

I have flown it a lot around in XP12 but I decided to step my game up and go for a higher level of experience. Ill send in some screenshots soon when I do my first flight!

The Carenado XP12 version is okay but doesn’t get some things right. The FS Labs one does. The script-driven style does take some getting used to.

If you find you’re struggling with fps let me know and I’ll give you a tip to improve them.

My fps are doing well for what I am flying. Yeah I agree with you, the concorde in xp12 simulates it okay, but its nothing ground breaking. Wouldn't mind taking those tips though, and as I promised here are my screenshots for you guys to enjoy

You don’t list your hardware nor whether you have Ai aircraft injected into P3D.

This setting change will improve performance.

Set All=1 in [RenderAsync] in ConcordeXGuages.ini

Transforms performance but keep an eye on the VFE panel for correct setting of switches.

Thanks, I did this and got some more fps on the ground, very nice trick to say the least.
