After couple of days of tinkering and comparisons, I went ahead and did a simple compare due to new tinting to see what is different.

Installed FSUIPC, EZCA, FSForce, FSGlobal, UTX, GEX, CorfuX, REX-E with the same textures in both sims, Shade with the same settings in both.

 

Not much of a difference though, whites are a bit whiter, whole pictures is a bit brighter, and water is bluer - which I don't really understand why though.

Lower FPS in P3D? Yeah... :huh:

 

Here we go:

 

FSX

 

 

P3D

 

I am perplexed as to why P3D would put out lower FPS than FSX in certain scenarios... :blink:

It's only a difference of 3 and the P3D shot has scenery and aircraft shadows on

Oh yeah, I totally missed that... will check the fps, but I guess they will be similar when I enable shadowing in FSX.

It's ok man. With all the testing you do in between real life stuff some things are bound to get overlooked. :)

Whoa... disabled scenery shadows and aircraft shadows, like in FSX, and shooting over 60+ now in P3D. Thanks for noticing!!!!

and shooting over 60+ now in P3D. Thanks for noticing!!!!

 

:shok: :shok: :o

 

If you can do some benchmarks that prove this correct, I will buy it tomorrow and move to P3D. That is a HUGE jump in FPS!!

Man, I'll crawl into the black hole I came from. Now it seems all my comparisons are for......arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh. All because of ONE checkmark.

 

:ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

 

It seems that P3D really has a boost over FSX. A significant one.

I will be testing, yes. But man, it's 3:40 am I really should get some sleep.

 

So... cya, although I WOULD love to keep on.

Hi Word Not Allowed,

 

I know P3D out performs FSX, I see it first hand on my system. Thanks to some of your incite and tweaks, I've been enjoying P3D ver. 1.4 with far superior performance to FSX.

But before I do go... with the correction!

 

FT Vienna + NGX

FSX: VC 27, Ext 32

P3D: VC 34, Ext 44

 

That IS a lot.

 

And now...

I have been suspecting. But knowing myself, I really want some numbers. And correct ones at that :angry:

Hi,

 

Well, get some rest and start fresh tomorrow. :Peace: and now, back to my flight from TNCA to KATL, right over ISSAC.

 

FT Vienna + NGX

FSX: VC 27, Ext 32

P3D: VC 34, Ext 44

 

:o

 

Holy cow!! I think that I am doing a full switch this week. Those numbers are groundbreaking... This is a revolution for our community if this continues. :Big Grin:

 

Michael - Thanks for your input as well! ^_^
