July 21, 200322 yr G'day GuysThought i would share this experience. with my fellow lovers of PIC.Picked up the download verison of the new addon ultimate traffic last week expecting great things.Its a good looking addon from what little time i did see of it.I spent most of my time cursing the program for causing crashes and mainly hard lockups on my system.I eventually had a totally corrupted version of XP which has since required a complete reformat and reinstall.Boy am i a happy camper!!Several other people with pretty powerful systems have also had the same disasterous problems.Seems to be a problem with Hyperthreading and high speed RAm as the common points between systems.If you have a big system be careful an drag it off your system at the first sign of trouble.All the hard lockups also occured at airports with overlays as opposed to plain and simple airfields.Apparantly overlays are being removed in the update due soon and that should solve all with luck.Anyway it does look great when and where it does work but its definitely not going back on my system for some time.All the bestDarren Howie
July 21, 200322 yr Hi GuysWell after a great amount of grief in the previous installation i now have a working copy of UT.Looks great with all those aircraft around and very little FPS hit except at terminals with traffic at 100%.Even then no lower than 11FPS with eveything maxxed out.Actually worth the effort of the drama's to tell you.Anyway still be careful but it does look great.DArren
July 22, 200322 yr Commercial Member I've seen nothing of the sort with UT - it's been perfect (other than the acknowleged issues they're patching) from day one. Ryan MaziarzFor fastest support, please submit a ticket at http://support.precisionmanuals.com
July 23, 200322 yr My experinence has been great as well. I don't see how it could mess up your system. I still run ME if that matters.Tony
