Featured Replies

Hello! 

 

I´ve got a question: I´m using the "High resolution 3d virtual cockpit" option turned on, so my cockpit is not blurried etc. But does it affect my performance negative when leaving this option on? Should i uncheck this option for getting better performance? I´m really happy with my performance but i´m very interested in knowing this. 

 

Thanks for your reply!

Since the cockpit is where you spend most of your time while flying, I would turn down other options first if your performance is suffering.

Thank you for this answer. But i only wanna know if the "High resolution 3d virtual cockpit" setting has any negative affect on performance etc. I´ve got a great performance actually, but it would be nice to know if some users could improve their perfomance by unchecking this option etc.

Then uncheck it and see how it affects your performance..... That'll be quicker than asking in the forum. High resolution eats up VAS, but overall performance depends on your hardware.

For what it's worth, I checked 'low res vc model' and saw an increase in performance and I didn't notice any detrimental effect. (this is where I don an asbestos suit!)

 

Maybe some of the more experienced members can post and tell us the difference between the hi poly and low poly VC models?
