March 17, 201610 yr Like what Steve said above. I do not touch P3D's affinity at all, outside of setting an am in the config but I've been lassoing ASN, EZDOK AND GSX without any issues.

March 17, 201610 yr Author TheBoom, You are right How can I uninstall Vector I don't have any add-on airports. I have only Orbix Base and Vector. I am going to uninstall Vector. Do I need Scenery Config Editor to help reduce VAS? Ahmet Sanal "Time you enjoyed wasting, was not wasted"
March 17, 201610 yr Hi Mark, you can try lasso with EZDOK, I presume you start EZDOK with exe.xml so it starts with the sim, and the lasso will move it. That's probably OK, but always test anything lassoed carefully. It's P3D and FSX that must not be lassoed, or any program that asserts its own affinity. Like P3D and FSX have their own affinity mask setting, anything like that don't lasso. Yes exe.xml for EZDok. TheBoom, You are right How can I uninstall Vector I don't have any add-on airports. I have only Orbix Base and Vector. I am going to uninstall Vector. Do I need Scenery Config Editor to help reduce VAS? Don't uninstall Vector just fix things using the Vector config tool. Turn off secondary and tertiary roads to start. Mark CYYZ
March 17, 201610 yr Author Steve, I am not so sure if Vector installed correctly, because I don't see ant difference in my scenery, I have to say ORBIX scenery is not appealing. May be some thing went wrong with installation. I am really frustrated. Mark, Ok I used Vector config tool. I will run P3d and see what happened.

Do I need Scenery Config Editor to help reduce VAS? You don't have to uninstall vector. Just uncheck a few boxes that aren't really necessary. http://www.robainscough.com/P3D_Orbx_Vector_Settings.html This is a good starting point courtesy of Rob.

March 17, 201610 yr Author TheBoom, Vector Scenery Config Editor worked well. It gave some improvement to VAS. I made a test flight from KJFK-KMSP with out OOM. Dep gate my available VAS 990 Mb. After takeoff moving three Scenery Slides to all the way left made the difference. During cruise my available VAS reduced to 880 Mb. At final I move slides back to right and available VAS reduced to 650MB .Arr Gate available VAS 570Mb. I think slowly I going to right direction. :smile: Ahmet Sanal "Time you enjoyed wasting, was not wasted"

Then again I've never ended a flight with more than 500 mb remaining VAS so I guess thats pretty much close to the best you can get without turning down settings by a lot more. But IMO you don't have to turn the scenery sliders all the way down. They don't impact VAS as much as other settings. Unless you are referring to autogen sliders. Maybe you can get slightly better VAS usage with less complex planes and default airports. It's about finding the balance. At least until we get 64bit.

March 20, 201610 yr Author Shanan, You are right, Solution is 64bit. I wonder, what is VAS limit will be? Regards Ahmet Sanal "Time you enjoyed wasting, was not wasted"
March 20, 201610 yr By default, it's only 8TB's for each 64 bit process. So, if FSX, FSX-SE, and/or P3D were converted to 64 bit, it would be essentially unlimited as there's not too many terebyte SSD's or HDD's yet available.

March 20, 201610 yr Author Steve,Hi [JOBSCHEDULER]AffinityMask=21760 This morning I realized [JOBSCHEDULER] is disappeared from P3D cfg. File Is it possible P3D didn't accept AM=21760 settings and removed? Regards Ahmet Sanal "Time you enjoyed wasting, was not wasted"
March 20, 201610 yr Commercial Member No the jobscheduler section won't be removed by P3D. With the 8 core HT enabled, 21760 gives four straight cores to the sim above the first four cores. On a 4GHz class CPU four cores only beats three by around 3-7%. More than four reduces performance and robs the CPU of throughput for other tasks. Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com
March 20, 201610 yr Author Thanks for your response. I will put back and will inform. Ahmet Sanal "Time you enjoyed wasting, was not wasted"

Best regards, 64 Bit adressing has nothing to do with SSDs / HDDs? Did you mean Memory Sticks? :-) Then you are absolutely right. It will take some time for consumer PCs to have 8 Terabyte or more RAM.
March 23, 201610 yr Did you mean Memory Sticks? :-) Then you are absolutely right. It will take some time for consumer PCs to have 8 Terabyte or more RAM. No, I meant Virtual Address Space (VAS) which has absolutely nothing to do with RAM. Best regards, Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!

March 23, 201610 yr No, I meant Virtual Address Space (VAS) which has absolutely nothing to do with RAM. Best regards, You are right, but also not with SSDs or HDDs. As the names says: Virtual. So it has nothing to do with hardware. I says only that a process can address 2^32 bit Memory. But I think as one does not want to run applications on SSD instead of RAM the size of the RAM will be the limiting factor. Edit: You can for example have more than 2^32 bit HDD memory in a 32bit system as the addressing of the HDD/SDD is something else than addressing the RAM as you address "blocks of memory". For example if the blocksize is 16 kb you can address 2^23*16kB HDD.
