  • blue dots: Airports whose layouts are too old. You'll see them the same in both xplane and FG (terrasync+terragit+etc)
  • orange dots: Airports with updated layouts. You'll see the updated layout in terraGIT or Xplane (not in terrasync)
  • red dots: Newest updated layouts. You'll see them updated in terraGIT (but not in the official Xplane release, nor in terrasync) --in Xplane you can use the apt.dat downloaded directly to render the updated airport

I hope it clarifies,

"Anywhere you want :D" : I think i'll go for Glasgow, lower complexity than the others and because its currently without any objects. It isn't far from Edinburgh

I just noticed an issue with Terminal 4 of EGLL in TerraSync:
Old model still there + legoboy's model hovering on top of it
(wrong elevation offset) and wrong normals of faces, no textures.
https://scenery.flightgear.org/app.php? ... ew&id=5401

I pushed an improved version here:
https://github.com/legoboyvdlp/London-fg-CustomScenery
.. and also to Terrasync

EGLL T4 is not accepted to terraqsync.
I feel a bit offended:
The screener left a comment for you: 'This texture is too stupid for
comment. Textures this big in a highly populated area like an airport
will reduce fps drastically.'


I did not check the size of the texture(2048x2048, 1.7MB). I was assuming that it was ok and accepted before.

With that texture you have a single full texture for a whole terminal with night effect. Optimise the texture and the model itself are constants of FG scenery modeling.
