May 13, 201412 yr Hi, I Cant wait to see SLI GTX780SC and KLAX (with the NGX). I am having 30-40fps in this area even at night with the A36. The light effects is just amazing. Ten times better than in FSX DX10 Michael Michael Moe
May 14, 201412 yr Author Okay , Here are som quick shots from KLAX but again these shots just doesnt tell the quality and how smooth the sim is. Those lights... Michael Moe
May 15, 201412 yr Author Nice. Looking good. What's your performance like in a heavy aircraft? Does not have one . Thats why my original post is looking forward to SLI support :-) Michael Michael Moe
May 17, 201412 yr Do you have AI traffic installed??? Do you have a third party weather engine like REX running??? How about an add on aircraft like the pmdg 737 ngx??? These are well known frame rate killers!!! I'm thinking about making the switch from FSX to PREPAR3D. However, I need to know what frame rates are like when running fully stocked.
May 17, 201412 yr Author Only Active Sky Next. No external AI but internally at 40%. SLI is a must when the NGX arrives i guess Michael Michael Moe
May 18, 201412 yr Apart from the NGX, I wonder how you get your runway lights and general light environment of the city looking like that? Do you have any specific addons installed for that or maybe some settings extra tweaked? Since you're using REX, maybe share your settings? Thx!
May 18, 201412 yr Nice pics but 10x better?I am pretty happy with my FSX lighting in DX10, UTX, FTX, REX, 737NGX at KLAX 40% AI + OPUS Live weather, still get 20-30fps, maxed out apart from VERY DENSE.I am interested in P3D for sure but right now its probably some way off being worth it just for fog and autogen popup(bear in mind these have lost sharpness during upload process) And over in South East England where I do most of my flying, approaching LGW from the English channelagain frustrating loss of sharpness as they are compressed to jpg :( sorry a few more from london & EGLL lighting with REX4, FTX-ENG (ftx is very poor on its own using the old style shoddy dim lighting that they still haven't retro upgraded to ftx-global style!) helped with UTX road lighting. for some reason screenshots appear a touch darker than in the sim, not sure why.

May 19, 201412 yr Author "The Light effects" in KLAX is far better (10x)in P3D than in FSX. Thats what i am telling from a subjectiv point of view offcause. I do not have REX. Only FTX Global installed with also nice lights Michael Michael Moe
May 19, 201412 yr I agree, but marginally. The originals were much sharper on my machine before being jpg compressed.I think out of the box p3d has better antialiasing built in, but if you set it up correctly in FSX and use both DX Scenery Fixer and nvidia inspector it can get quite close, plus you still have NGX and your gigs of scenery/addonsDont get me wrong but I will change over soon, its just not for the lighting, its pretty daunting given how much I've invested in FSX and how smoothly it runs. If only they would release a 64bit version with NGX I would buy it yesterday.
