June 28, 20187 yr Hi everyone, I have request from users of this Scenery. How is the performance in P3Dv4? I also have Flightbeam KIAD, and I want to fly my PMDG birds from KDCA? I have tried their demo a while back, but I can't remember the performance and since this scenery is on sale, I am contemplating on buying the license. Just do not want a bad experience after buying it. Thanks How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)
June 28, 20187 yr absolutely fine. No performance hit I have seen. DC airspace is jammed so limiting AI is key. ground textures are less than stellar outside the airport grounds but thats DD's typical layout. don't forget to land a helo on the South Lawn!

June 28, 20187 yr Commercial Member It's very good, without performance issues on my system. I don't understand why DD modeled so much inside buildings. They did the same with the Seattle scenery... seems a bit overboard, and given that it's PhotoReal it must take a little toll on the frame rate but honestly I don't see it. To give credit where credit is due... the DD New York scenery didn't run well for me, but the Miami and Seattle scenery packages are terrific. Best wishes!

June 28, 20187 yr I have DD Washington and FlightBeam IAD and get very good performance form both. My scenery preferences are also revolve around my PMDG fleets. I'll try to post a video when I get home.

Plus, earlier today, I took off in the SR22 from DD KDCA and Wash X and flew to FlightBeam KIAD and then around the DC area. I had Wash X and MSE Virginia activated.

June 28, 20187 yr Performance is very good, especially given how dense the scenery is in the area.

My settings are pretty much maxed out, except that I don't need anti-aliasing since I'm using a 4K monitor and resolution. My other add-ons are GSX, PTA, UTL, and ActiveSky.
