But I need to do a full flight from/to EGLL or EDDF to know better how it performs under "real" conditions. Thanks again, Chris.

October 17, 20178 yr 28 minutes ago, sparkie66 said: well, I only have a 4790k @ 4.6, with a 980Ti and 16 gb ram and SSD's (@ 4k resulotion) So far it performs worse than the p3d v3 version. I have put my monitor on 30 hz and vsync + triple buffering, just as with the ngx. The nxg pegs at 30 fps and no real stutters. The FSL fps vary from low 20's to my (refresh) max 30 fps, with stutters a fair bit worse than with the ngx. Before my 4k monitor I tested with 1080p, but because one needs insane amounts of AA to rid the jaggies, the fps results were pretty much the same as my 4k monitor. So for the smoothness I seek, my lowly system is not good enough it seems. You might have to drop down from 4K mate. I know I probably will
October 17, 20178 yr Just installed with a warning from ZoneAlarm. It thinks the test.exe in ..\Temp\is-B6D7S.tmp has a not-a-virus:HEUR:PSWTool.Win32.Security.Xploded.gen virus. This apparently causes a risk to information on your system. Cheers! David Haynes

Many AV engines see our installers as a virus, which they are not (also known as a false positive). Karl Brooker

What's so special about it is that this addon comes closer to the real thing than any other addon out there, and certainly any other Airbus. But you have to appreciate that system depth. If you just want to experience what an Airbus pilot might experience on a regular day you probably are better off with 'the (upcoming) other' Airbus. (Which is the one I will be getting.)
October 17, 20178 yr OK, I'd just like to update, as I don't want to be unfair to this product: - the hang-up on the runway initlialisation was solved by a reinstall. It now takes 2 seconds, rather than 20-0 minutes. This is good! - the VR bug: I've worked out a work-around - go into VR mode in the cub (loaded initially), then start the airbus. Using this, I've finally got a VR view of the cockpit. Frames are low, around 24 fps - so usability may be a problem - but at least its working.If I switch out of, and then back in to, VR mode, it still crashes. - My mouselook crash didn't happen on the last boot. Maybe teething problems with the new install, We'll see. - The cockpit is quite nice in VR. The sounds are great - the experience of sitting in a VR airbus, listening to all the systems come on line is pretty sweet. - It flies well. This, plus the systems depth, is why I bought it. - the performance still concerns me. I've just flown with sliders further left than I ever have before! Hopefully, the FSL team can improve this.

October 17, 20178 yr Just an unscientific test to compare FPS between FSL and PMDG 777. Situated at the end of 27R using Aerosoft Heathrow Professional, AS16, UT Live. I found the FSL A320 to be just a little harder on frames than the 777. It was probably 3 to 4 FPS less than the 777. I'm running a GTX 970 with MSAA X4.
October 17, 20178 yr OK, I'll make sure that's up to date, thanks for the suggestion. <edit> Comment was in reply to advice to check the FSUIPC version.
