Getting it set up and finding my way around now. Did a test with the default Cessna 172 and the MD82. Starting at KJFK with downloaded real weather which was very cloudy with ceilings about 1,500 ft....yesterday. About 45 to 50FPS flying around the NYC area in the Cessna 172. Don't know how to fly the MD 82 yet but on the runway I was getting about the same...close to 50 FPS. I don't usually fly in the NYC area but like to use it as a testing ground for FPS or the Chicago area...which ever has the worst weather. Settings were all high with AA at 2 I think....monitor is an LG 36 inch ultra wide. I'm tweaking things a little right now but over all I'm happy with it...Xmas came early!
June 26, 20196 yr It's a thing of the past to test performance in bad weather. No (X-Plane default) weather situation makes a 2080 lose a beat. The opposite is the case - bad weather usually comes with low visibility, which effectively decreases CPU load thus enabling better performance (for anyone being CPU limited, which is roughly 10 out of 10 X-Plane users). That means, a performance test is better done with the "Cirrus" preset instead of bad weather. - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20

That's good to know...I've noticed in the past I got good FPS in low visibility settings and wondered why...thanks Colonel. Edited June 26, 20196 yr by Will273
