Any news on crossfire support for MSF? or is there some work around with radeonpro that im not aware of

Just like FSX, Flight has no internal support for Sli or Crossfire. It is realy a GPU driver issue.Sometimes it causes trouble sometimes not.A single powerful GPU seems to give the best results. Unlike FSX, Flight takes full advantage of your GPU.Fred.

We can hope AMD releases a cap file for Flight, but i doubt they do.

Xfire support is 100% up to AMD and releasing a driver with a profile support for Flight. MS has nothing to do with it. Nvidia on the otherhand are very proactive in there SLI support. For the most part, non-SLI games can benifit in some ways even without direct driver support. Im guessing Xfire support will come in the 12-3 drivers expected out soon.

Crossfire works fine. If you're using Catalyst Drivers 12.1 or later just setup a profile to use AFR and not default crossfire mode.AMD 6990 Overclocked at 920/1375

As it is right now, Flight hardly uses 60-70% of Flight. Its not GPU limited, but its not as CPU bound as FSX is.

Ok, I've tried that and I'm not getting any cross-fire action. So that is definitely not a fix for everyone. Any other ideas?

This worked for me as well. I am not getting a huge increase in FPS over a single 6970, so obviously its not scaling too well right now.My fps would dip into the teens when doing some gold rush challenges on a single gpu, now my lowest is 25fps. As far as im concerned, i've gone from 18fps to 26fps.Hopefully it will just get better with time.

So should I leave my CF on for better performance or should I turn it off so the game can fully utilize one GPU. I am sorry if this was answered but I got a little confused by some people saying it worked and others saying no. Has anyone heard anything about an AMD profile coming out for this?

Well it works but you wont notice any performance gains, so you might as well run it on one card.

Sorry for the late reply, but I think I have something useful to add.I recently reformatted, and upon firing up Flight for the first time I took note of single card performance. Then I set my CCC profile for Flight with AFR Friendly, and noticed no increase in FPS. This is what I noticed, in single GPU mode, usage is 99% with fps steady around 20fps. In cfx, usage is 60% per card with dips down to 20fps but 40fps if the plane is flying straight, as in not looking around loading new scenery.

For me SLI on GTX580 works fine with FLIGHT. Seems better framerate then just one card used. But it's not only about performance. I think FLIGHT deserves better multimonitor support (anything like FSX has). For me is much better have possibility to place any view i want on monitor i choose, then only get one wide surround view. It's cool just make side windows :).

That is interesting about sli giving you a litle better framerate.I just received a new GTX 560 Ti 2gb video card, probably will not be able to install for a few days though.I am replacing a GTX 460 1gb card, - with it currently the only stutters I see are in external fly by view over dense terrain. It will be interesting to see if this new card alleviates that. I figure as they add content and new, possible more complex scenery, it certainly won't hurt having this new 500 series card...I agree with you on multi monitor support - I too run two monitors, a 24" widescreen led, and a 22" widescreen lcd as secondary. In FSX, I love having that second monitor available to display things like radio stack, gps, atc window, kneeboard.Certainly Flight is out the chute, prepared for using it eventually, as it dedicates and blanks out the second monitor like FSX does. In fact, one of the first things I did when I launched Flight for the first time and saw that it blanked out the secondary monitor, was go into graphics options and look at the display resolution, and checked that drop down box to see if it offered resolution adjustment for the secondary monitor - alas it did not, but who knows what the future might bring?And again, I keep saying this in many threads, I encourage anyone that feels a strong desire for something they would like to see in Flight - and this is a perfect example - email the Flight team and let them know. Only takes about 5 minutes of your time, unless you are a really slow typer. They have stated both in the Flight sim itself, and on their website, they want to hear feedback from users on what they would like to see. I know I have emailed them on at least two occasions... and it certainly can not hurt to do so. You probably will not get a response, but rest assured, they are collecting the data from the user feedback.[email protected]
