Hi,

 

I just recently purchased KLAX from FSDreamTeam. The main issue I am having is the performance. I have a powerful system and this one is bringing me down into the teens. I have followed Word Not Allowed's guide already and I am wondering if anyone has any clues on how to improve my FPS.

Heck of a system I dont see how it could not handle klax, I dont seem to have any problems with it, not sure on this one.

What are your traffic settings?

I've got UT2 set to 40%. I see 1 FPS difference with it turned on and with it off. Traffic isn't the culprit.

Hmmm, I definitely get lower fps than usual with this scenery but usually not into the teens unless I'm in a few addons like NGX, Mustang etc...

 

Are you getting into the teens with resource hungry addons? If so I'd say it's normal (well normal to me)

No. At all other payware fields, I get 30FPS locked. This is the only airport that my system has struggled with.

Guess I'll cross that one of my wish list until they fix it.

FSDT has their own forums, I'd suggest posting in it for help.

I am glad you posted this, I love FSDT airports and this was on my wish list. I think I will monitor what is going on before I make the investment.

One thing that can hamper your FPS or make FSDT's KDFW and KLAX stutter really bad is if you have Transparency AA turned on. Although I dont use the newer Inspector, I still use nHancer and per Umberto's recommendation I turned off Transparency AA and it cleared up all the problems. On my older rig I get a pretty solid 20+ FPS with 75% or higher AI and the NGX.

 

Apparently it has something to do with the way they use the shaders at these two airports that makes them run better if you have Transparency AA turned off and truth be told, at least on my rig with settings that are similar to Ryans or Nicks nHancer setup, I dont even really notice and visual IQ difference with it turned off.

 

If you want a better explanation of why it needs to be turned off at these two airports, ask Umberto. My explanation was just from something I remember him saying a few times.

 

 

POST EDIT: Here's one post where they talk about turning it off.

It tripled my FPS to have SGSS turned off. I don't mind the slight loss of IQ for the massive performance gains. Thanks so much!

That's my issue then argh ty!

Sorry, can someone explain what is SGSS? I have or use Inspector, I have an Antialiasing - Transparency Supersampling turned on 2x supersample which is what has been recommended.

 

 

Are you saying that this should be turned off?

SGSS is applied to the whole scene, whereas SS is only applied to the transperancies.

This is why SGSS is such a performance hit.
