I might just send you something actually Dave because I am a bit concerned about how it is Wolfgang's one doesnt fit well with your mesh. I have a sneaking suspicion mine might do the same because I havent done anything clever with flattens etc...

Theres not a lot to see at the moment. Most of the BEA and BOAC areas are done except for some of the more "boring" hangars to the north of the area, Speebird House and Comet House and little details like lighting, trees and fences. I have also had a crack the old Hunting hangars and made a start on Terminals 2 and 3. There's a few vehicles around but there's so much more to do because its such a big site!

Dave - I'll email you something and you can see how it fits in with your other scenery and if its starting to make any impact on frames. This PC is sickly (probably needs a defrag or format and reinstall) and I cant get smooth frames in FS anywhere so mine isn't a good test!

Cheers Toby.. I'll nip over and check ;)

Wolfies scenery is designed to fit on a default FS9 terrain so the problem I had was due to VFRTerrain mesh (lots of water around 9R). This was fixed to some degree by him adding a tile but it still didn't look quite right I'm afraid :(
