MSFS 2020 I think there is a problem with the AFD file at EGNM Leeds Bradford. I am only seeing airliners parked at Stands 7 and 8, and these are the two that are defined as GATE. The other stands are defined as RAMP, but I do not ever see airliners parked at any of these (only the occasional executive jet). I thought at first this was because I had purchased the product on the MS Marketplace (with the associated eternal waits for updates), but I seem to have the latest version installed (1.0.2). I am surprised that nobody else has noticed this. Can anyone please confirm if you have the same issue? I am using the AIG AI database.

I would love to see a super detailed version of EGKK London Gatwick, but it would also have to be available for MSFS 2020. Whilst the freeware version is a reasonable attempt, it is nowhere near as detailed as I would like.

I initiated an order transfer request from MS Marketplace for EGHI Southampton on December 19, but so far I have not received any kind of response. I appreciate that it is Christmas, but I just want to check that the transfer request has been received.

Are you saying that certain aspects of your scenery will not be displayed properly with PG disabled? It is worth noting that some potential customers (myself included) do not use PG.

Wow, I have only just realised that version 1.04 of LGHI Chios Omiros was released in August....and it is not yet available on the MS Marketplace??! That is three months! How on Earth can Microsoft consider that to be acceptable?

How do I work out which MS Marketplace purchase is the correct one? Steam does not keep records of the name of the product that was purchased. It looks like I can provide all of the other information, but that one has stopped me in my tracks.

Can anyone confirm for me if the alignment of the runway centreline markings in the latest version (1.04) of LGHI Chios Omiros has been fixed? The update for this at the MS Marketplace is taking so long that I am considering purchasing the airport again in the current sale.

What on Earth are Microsoft doing these days with respect to MS Marketplace updates? It must be five or six weeks since I was informed that an update for LGHI Chios Omiros had been released, and yet it has still not appeared on the MS Marketplace. It's getting ridiculous.

It takes up to two weeks for updates to be cleared on the MS Marketplace.

No response?

I noticed that the new EGGW Luton scenery is apparently not compatible with photogrammetry OFF. That is rather surprising, as I would have thought that quite a few users with older PCs (like myself) would always have PG disabled. Can someone please let me know just how serious the incompatibility is?

Bear in mind here that I do not currently have AI planes enabled in MSFS. However, performance of the IniBuilds Heathrow scenery is excellent on my i5 7600k @ 4.5Ghz/32GB DDR4-3600 RAM/Nvidia GTX 980Ti PC. This is running @ 1920x1080 resolution on a 24" widescreen monitor, with DSR @ 1.3x, all graphics options set to HIGH, all shadows/reflections etc enabled, TAA anti-aliasing, static aircraft @ 50%, and Terrain LOD and Object LOD set to 250 and 125 respectively. I also have UK2000 EGLC London City and Burning Blue Design EGLF Farnborough active in the same general area, and We Love VFR and GAIST (shipping mod) active. I also (currently) use the "Scattered Clouds" weather option. I have all road traffic disabled. Some people may question that Terrain LOD setting, but I can guarantee you that it is genuine. The only unknown for me with your own system is how well that CPU running at only 2.9Ghz will handle it. How well does other stuff run on your system at your low end settings?

I am sure that they will correct that with an update (unless it has already been done; the trailer could be a pre-release version).

I also noticed Termimal 2 in the trailer.

There are also several centreline markings that are seriously out of alignment at EGHI Chios Omiros. Can you also please correct these?

Would it be possible to check the alignment of the runway centreline markings at EGHI Southampton? Some of them look to be a bit offset from each other. Alignment of runway markings is something that I am a bit OCD about 🙂
