I agree, but I deliberately thrashed my PC to see what it can and can't handle.
It's not as strong as some other PCs, but since it was requested, I wanted to show what happens when you put TEGB, AS EGLL, a complex airplane, weather and AI altogether.

I won't be using that combination at the same time again until I update my CPU and Mobo later this year.

Then UK VFR might be the one for you..

Nope, the version of Horizon VFR photo scenery I'm using (from the Playsims update discs) has 60cm resolution in many places.

It has 60cm resolution scenery of a handful of towns and cities. A relatively small fraction of the product in its entirety. Of course, I am not saying that I disagree with your comment about the quality of the photoscenery in TrueEarth GB South. I would need to see it running on my own PC to provide an accurate assessment.

Is there an official statement from ORBX which says that TE and regions are only for GA?

indeed, that's why I only use fs global mesh,vector base, vector and the lc products- own all regions just not using them at this moment. hopefully v4.5 will change things

No, but they also wont tell you about massive frame drops if you want to purchase the regions

Yeah, that's true. And as I already stated, TE will be not for me as long as loading times and pauses are not fixed.

That's why I will not be using TE UK or TE US regions when they are released I will be more interested in Africa OLC if it ever gets done.

More like made for site-seeing. Regional sceneries are best enjoyed low-and-slow.

And that's what I love about them. I understand, there are quite a number of pilots flying between far-distant airports high in the sky who only require proper general terrain and LC and good clouds etc. but don't care for POIs and stuff far below them. That's totally fine. But for sightseeing pilots like me this is excatly what we need.

In this respect I totally love the TE GB series, at least in XP so far. While the P3D version seems to need some care to properly perform yet.

Kind regards, Michael
