Not a lot of info on the website, but a new paid version of SimHeaven X-World?

Paid version of SimHeaven X-World

The author surely deserves the recognition for his hard work all these years.

I'm buying the full version !

I am trying to buy but there are errors on the page 'missing reCAPTCHA token'

I don’t mind buying in, but what’s the difference to the freeware?

I'm interested to know if the tree placement is better

The Pro version is not available yet, the shop shouldn't have been visible.  I did a Google search for SimHeaven and the Pro version page was first in the list.  I literally did a double take when I saw the Pro version - it took about a tenth of a second for me to click the purchase link!!

Really looking forward to seeing screenshots!

Yes, the page was brought down ...

I guess it's meant for 2026 (?)

Whatever, it is going to be a sure buy for me. Along the years SimHeaven has brought it's scenery to X-Plane I have had great pleasure using his creations and tallented work.

Sometimes I contribute with donations, but buying the full version will be the best option.

Did they mention a price

When I visited the website I think it said 35 euro’s for the global and 10 euro’s for single continent’s.  

Will be buying this Pro version too, the price is reasonable for the what we get. Didn't knew is not available yet.

I’m sorry but exactly what is this? There web site says scenery packages but best I can make out it is vegetative and autogenerated upgrade. Looks enticing but should I wait for release of the above stated pro version before downloading the NA continent?

simHeaven X-World pay ware looks interesting but will have to get rid of the very large buildings artifacts that show up as a result of the footprints scenery before I will pay for it.  These artifacts also are present in Bing Maps.  To see what I mean, with X-World North America loaded take off from RW 13 CYRM Rocky Mountain House, Alberta and you will see what I'm talking about. They are quite numerous throughout western Canada and the USA.  The automatic algorithm used to make the footprints data needs some work.  I have manually removed them from Canada and some parts of the Northern USA, but it is a lot of time-consuming work.  I did email simHeaven a few months ago about it and they did mention there would be and upgrade in late 2025 or early 2026.  If simHeaven is counting on third party data for the Footprints sections of their scenery, this building artifacts issue will probably still exist unless the footprints scenery is manually modified.
