April 27, 201412 yr Author Moderator Ironmaiden, I'm guessing the public v0.3.1 is broken. I've fixed the thread hanging bug and some other bugs, but haven't released it yet. I'll send you a test version of 0.4.0 in a few days.
April 27, 201412 yr WOW Can you compile NL please. On my system its still doing the generation. Are you using Ramdisk and what is the Ramdisk size ? just running it.... will take some time. Trying with 5 cores... on Ramdisk... Also allocated 20Gb of memroy use for W2XP. The ramdrive should speed up the whole things on it, as reading/writing the DB and scenery on it... Keep you informed ;-) PC Specs: i7 4820K (WC), AsusP9X79, 64GbRam 1866, GTX Titan 6Gb Black Edition, trhustmaster warthog, trackIR5, ...

April 27, 201412 yr lol... well, city houses are already around 500 up and usable ^^ Next w-e they should be around 300 more... afterwards I'll double 'em by creating a new texure for more diversity. Monster rig... not sure, as the W2Xplane version I'm using is way slower... will take some solid hours. Belgium worked out in 10 minutes on 0.3.1 on my PC.... On a newer version it takes around 20 minutes... so as the netherlands is quite big, I don't know the time, but at least x2 ^^ PC Specs: i7 4820K (WC), AsusP9X79, 64GbRam 1866, GTX Titan 6Gb Black Edition, trhustmaster warthog, trackIR5, ...

April 27, 201412 yr Ah at last it compiled more than 2 hours with 2 cores. Will do a test run in the morning. Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus
April 28, 201412 yr i'll post it online this evening..... took 3 hours.... PC Specs: i7 4820K (WC), AsusP9X79, 64GbRam 1866, GTX Titan 6Gb Black Edition, trhustmaster warthog, trackIR5, ... Find the latest status to 3D 4 World2Xplane Page --> http://blacky75b.wordpress.com/3d-4-world2xplane/
April 28, 201412 yr i'll post it online this evening..... took 3 hours.... Hey it shouldn't have taken that long on that CPU. Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus
April 28, 201412 yr Author Moderator i'll post it online this evening..... took 3 hours.... Hey it shouldn't have taken that long on that CPU. I'm presuming he's not using 0.3.1, but the v0.4.0 I sent him. v0.4.0 generates much slower as it's checking roads, heights and it takes about twice as long to generate scenery now. I tried the same on my low-powered Mac with 2 cores and it generated the Netherlands in about an hour, that's without using Ramdisk, and just local storage.The Netherlands is chock full of buildings, so even though it's relatively small, it still takes a large amount of processing power to go through those millions of buildings. I'll try and speed it up again, but there are no promises that I can do much due to what we are trying to do :(. But hey, it's the result that's important

I feel two things if they can be managed is the number of cores and the memory usage then it would be fantastic. But yes it's the end result that's important. Took a flight in NL got no fps issues.

April 28, 201412 yr Hi, sorry for the delay, but I have to work in real life sometime, it happens ^^ Jokes appart.... NETHERLANDS 0.4.0 ONLINE. BE WARNED: You'll need D/L the WMM FROM WORLD2XPLANE.COM SITE!!! (as I've updated it just before rendering, said the 27th of April) AND: i do not like autogen, so don't expect see any in there ;-) Oh, I made a QUICK test to assure it works... flawless, took off at Maastricht ;-) Hell their osm data is populated!!!!

Thnx to simheaven for the hosting!!! http://simheaven.com/experimental/Europe/NeedsWMMFromWorld2Xplane/ Hiya Blacky, How long did it take to generate NL ? on my Hack it took more than 2 hours. That was with 3.1 Beta. with 20 GB Ramdisk and 2 cores. What Autogen ? Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus
April 28, 201412 yr Autogen is what X-plaen adds itself on 3D to makes it look nicer... but, totally not on the right places if you have a phototexture on ground ^^ So i disabled it. It took around 3 hours, on 5 cores (I left 3 cores for other tasks), all in ramdisk too.Also I gave him 20Gb of free ram instead of the usual 8Gb. But... on pre-beta 0.4.0..... as tony said, it's calculating way more than in 0.3.1. I know he cares about render time, but hey, even 3 hours is still acceptable, when I remember that the first non multicore versions tooks over 2Hours for belgium, now 20 minutes ^^ The most calculation times, where you could think the programm 'hangs' is on the first 5 passes... that took nearly over an hour (or 2?) if i remember...

Ok. Yes the first versions took around 1.5 hrs when generating NL. So if 4.0 is calculating more accurately I guess it will take a huge amount of time. Lets hope Tony releases 4.0 soon.

April 28, 201412 yr Author Moderator @Ironmaiden I'll send you a test version of 0.4.0 with some changes soon, as Netherlands does not take me that long on Mac OS X, so it might be a Windows issue. Since you have both a Hackintosh and Windows, your tests would be very useful ;-)
