Dave and Joe, will try that. Will report back, thanks guy's.

Thanks lads, that did the trick. Back to steady 30fps in the FSL

Yeah, i nearly stumbled over that too.

That was not a wise decision by REX to let EF "change" this setting. EF should read the setting from installed SF. Its obvious that may trigger performance issues.

Yes, that is what threw me. I thought wrongly that 512 clouds in SF was sufficient.

It was crashing my whole system. I had to reinstall almost everything. Just repaired it from the P3D setup file for the 3rd time. I have the new 2.0 Beta EF and so far I cant tell if it works or not? I thought there was supposed to be a smooth weather transition. I still have clods poping up out of nowhere

I dont understand what is your issue. The popping of clouds has not been a problem reported. You can go ahead and post in the forums for support.

The weather transition is working as expected.

I installed the beta tonight and IMO it's now all the little niggles are gone.

Here is a Test I did from current to beta. 

I ran a test EGNX at 8 pm, the sun on Runway 27 is at 1 o'clock behind the cloud to the right. So VC should not be very bright, no VC lighting is turned ON. With ASP4, PMDG NG. It's about to rain here BTW so it looks just how it should.

No other shaders being used. Just SF and EF

All in FULL AUTO Mode.

The current version, IMO VC is to light.

The same scene with Beta.

 

The current version, looking right showing more VC

 

Same with new Beta

 

The Overhead really should not have much light on it.

Current version. Way to much light.

 

New Beta looks perfect.

Here are two from a quick flight round KLAS in the sun.

All upper clouds fixed, really nice depth to the scene.

Great work guys.

So Nyxx,

Are you telling me it's safe to install and use this app now?

I yanked it two days after installing it for all the reasons mentioned upon it's initial release. Haven't bothered to check back regarding viability since then until just reading your post.

Cheers,

Mark

Wait for the new build, Mark. I've been playing around with it all night (beta), I had to adjust by P3D HDR brightness to the level I used with PTA and TS 1.3. But everyone can fine tune to there own liking. Personly I love it. But am not trying to use shaders over shaders.

Is it safe? I had to uninstall the current version to install Beta, no problems at all.

How do I download the beta?

Thank you!

This new beta appears to have resolved the visibility issues. I am enjoying this version

Hi David

 

I am in the same boat as you . Now i actually needs to have brightness at 1.3 with HDR on but it looks amazing with latest EF update.

Another thing that really impressed me today which might not be the update that is responsibly for this  was the light during pushback at gate T24 at LEMD today with EZ.G-EZUI A320. The fuselage - It whent from rather dark red to its orange colour during pushback. I cant remember seeing this before. Really nice.

Also i got the 1903 windows update today and on my side its even better. Very very smooth indeed with your settings :-). 

Thanks my friend .  (now using HDR again )

Oh one thing , why is the VHF1 lit up  (pushed offcause )but not the other radio buttons in the VC ? (sometimes they do though but havent had them for a while)

Really happy they helped you Michael.

EF does really look great now with this update.

Not sure I understand about the VHF1
