    EDXH - Duene Airport - Helgoland - Upgrade + Heliport - Image 1

    Description

    Standalone 2024 version now uploaded. No change to the 2020 version.

    The 2024 iteration is available with the download button below the main file.

    Had to exclude some buildings, remove some vegetation and make some other tweaks. There are still some quirks that I can't figure out such as doubled up helipads, but so be it. 

    This version has been split into a 2024 scenery file and a separate model file that was compiled in 2020. Why? Because I can't be bloody bothered to spend weeks remaking models that work perfectly well. That's why. 

     

     

    Es tut mir leid, aber ich habe mein Deutsch vergessen. 

    Despite this I wanted to do Helgoland. For some reason the British call it Heligoland. It was of course occupied for a few years and exploded by the British and I still think of it as British as our royal family. Which is... Deutsch.

    Anyway it's wet. There's an Islander to retexture and it's remote. All of these things are guaranteed to excite me.

     

    For 2020 You must delete the Asobo World Update 6 EDXH in your content manager to use this version. 

    There are multiple files inside the download folder so click again to find them.

    Inside there is EDXH and EDYZ, the heliport. And also a water mask if you want to use it. 

    There is a second version of EDXH in a separate zip file for those who don't have the Germany POIs installed which re adds the POIs. Delete the main EDXH in the download and replace it with that version. 

     

    I have added elevations as it was totally flat before. I've replaced some of the ground and beaches, added buildings and other details. I have also pulled back the sea and removed vegetation from the shores. 

    At the airport there are replicas of all the buildings. All the ground textures have been changed. Parking space number 10 is inside the hangar. Parking space number 1 is where the passenger aircraft seem to go. Fencing has been done and detail added all over. 

    On the main island I have worked on the docks and sea walls. I've also added the heliport - with the fictional ICAO EDYZ. This is a separate file because I didn't want to confuse the original airport. If you don't want it the only thing you won't see modified is the heliport area. 

    Out to sea at the wind farms there is an oil rig and ship heliport. The ship's ICAO is ED9L. And the oil rig ICAO ED7L

    There is an opening door for the GSX profile by ElevateSolutions  - https://flightsim.to/file/62444/edxh-heligoland-airport-germany-gsx-profile-superspud-freeware

    Model credits - Bernd G, Mandun, Charline P, Marjan A and big up to Mamu82 for the flags. 

    Tschüss

    V 1.7

    Corrects the windsock and flag directions. Forgot to do that. 

    Adds the SAR building at the heliport and tweaks the detail and lighting at the heliport. 

    Corrects some elevation strangeness, presumably from the recent world update. 

    Adds a German navy Sachsen class frigate to land wending its way in a loop towards the mainland and back. 

    Lowers the water mask slightly. 

    Adds a cyclist and moving electric truck. Not sure it's worth downloading an entire library for the truck, but you may wish to be fully appropriate.

    Bei mir steht am Heliport ein CH-47 und es sieht anders aus als auf den Bildern, ich habe mal alle meine Mods deaktiviert aber der CH-47 steht da immer noch. Kann mir jemand weiterhelfen?

    The longer runway is not usable, it is not flat, full of huge bumps. The shorter one is ok.

    Thanx again for your Work!!
    Using it now in 2024 and it´s cool as it was in 2020.

    Wishlist: ;-)
    - restore grass and bushes on the upper mainland (lower mainland is working like it should in 2024,
    mowing grass and trees)
    - more "Life" to airport, harbour and camping side
    - objects are coming in very late. Would love to see it much earlier (but that´s my wish for all objects in
    2020 and 2024 . Flying Helicopter and all objects "popping in" when 100m away is no real fun)

    But all in all really nice again! Thanks very much

    Yes. Vegetation needs a bit of work. It was all trees which I got rid of. I think it needs a bit of scrub.

    If something's popping in late then it's going to be from 2024, not this project. I certainly hope at least. Ideally they're going to cure that.

    Is it mainly airport objects like the static light aircraft and ground crew or is it more stuff?

    Objects shown or popping in is also in 2020, not only 2024 and your project. For VFR it´s often to late. Sometimes complete objects popping in, other times textures are loaded late.
    Don´t know if you can change that or its related to MSFS.

    There's certainly rather a lot to iron out. Biggest problem for me is painfully slow internet. Not sure it'll ever really be fully playable for me unless I move somewhere faster. Looks nice though.

    If it's pink that means you might still be showing the version that is being streamed from Asobo.

    Have you definitely installed this 2024 version and not the 2020? The streamed version has buildings, with pink textures, that I had to exclude.

    If you have the 2020 version that didn't exclude it.

    Again thanx for this update! Awesome.

    But it is - like before - a massive FPS-Killer. Is there anything you can do on this?
    Most of the World I have static 45fps (except on heavy loaded Airport or Sceneries), with your upgrade it drops down to 32-39 with heavy stutters.

    There's nothing particularly heavyweight in there so I'm not sure why it's happening. You could try deleting everything in the Scenarii folder to see if that makes a difference.

    Or bin it and use the Asobo one.

    Found the Fault on my side. Changed the Helicopter and all is back normal. Haven´t ever noticed that the Cowansim Heli are so FPS freindly, whereas my Taogs Huey kills so much FPS in your great Helgoland extension.

    Verstehe nicht. Was soll der Oedner EDXH for World Update removed,wenn ich EDXH im Asobo schon lösche? Was ist der Unterschied zwischen dem removed und dem normalen EDXH?

    The Germany world update adds the lighthouses, the top section of the island as a model and plenty of other details. That's separate from the actual airport file.

    Plenty of people may delete the Germany world update so the other file re adds those details. Which I did before Asobo appeared here.

    Also wenn ich edxh im Asobo Ordner lösche, und dann die gepackte removed Datei verwende, habe ich den Leucht- und Funkturm doppelt..

    If you have the Germany world update then remove the Asobo EDXH and don't use the file in the extra zip folder.

    The world update will supply the lighthouses, harbour and other details on the islands.

    If you don't have the Germany world update then the file in the zip folder does add those details.

    Version History

    No change to the 2020 file, but there's no way of letting you know there's any type of update without uploading it again. Go figure. Adds a standalone 2024 version to address a few problems - building removal, vegetation removal, some terrain weirdness.
