Best payware airports for use wit FTX Southern Califorinia region?

Featured Replies

I already have FSDT's KLAX, but would love to complete the entire Souther California region. I know there's also 29palm's KTNP and FSDT's KLAS, what other high quality payware airports can you guys recommend that will work in this region that's supported in P3D 3.1?

I use KSNA from LatinVFR and it looks great.

System details: Gigabyte P57v7 CF2 17.3" laptop. Kaby Lake i7 7700HQ CPU (averaging 3.4mhz). NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 8mb (laptop version), 16 GB of DDR4-2400 RAM, SSD - Samsung 970 Evo  500GB M.2 NVMe, 1TB HDD 7200.

KSNA and KSAN are about it that I know of.

 

There's decent freeway sceneries for KONT and KLGB available at AVSIM that work in P3D.  I was not able to get the freeware version of KBUR to work.  There is a good freeware version of KSBA, but I haven't tried it in P3D yet.  There's also all the smaller airports in ORBX NA freeware pack.

Oh man SoCal is a fps killer area lol - I've got a lot of payware for that region because I enjoy flying online Pilot Edge

Really? even in P3D v3.1?  I was looking at this package.  What kind of FPS hit did you get? I wonder when we ever going to be able to use ORBX fluidly.

Not sure but when I fly in this region, it's a lot of blurries for me... I have no problem with other FTX regions. Not sure what the problem is. The only payware airports I use in this area are FSDT KLAX and FTX L70.

 

Anyone know why I am getting so many blurries here but not other FTX regions?

Oh sorry I sort of said that out loud - meaning I have many addon airports for that region so it's already a fps killer - I don't own Orbx SCA because I've heard it's tough on performance - even with marinas and cranes disabled
