April 16, 20206 yr Hi, While the dust settles on V5 with HF in few weeks; I will see if I really need to move to it immediately or not. It could look like LM is gonna support 2 platforms P3D4.5HF3 and v5. Can someone confirm? Why release HF3 if you are not going to support it. I installed on a brand new os build, and performance was good. It feels very stable and smooth. I will post my settings shortly. Using 2070 RTX, 4K and Overclocked to 4.4 - HT ON (12 cores total) 1) Orbx Install - I mean everything was installed outside. This was a surprise, looks like Orbx fixed the Global bugs (Global and openLC NA) and it allowed me to install outside. I skipped Vector b/c that doodoo ain't getting updated anymore (you know there is dev drama behind the scenes with that one) - and then the FTX Regions. I am just gonna fly Regions anyway. On my quest to have all addons outside - the sim is working flawlessly. 2) MaddogX is working fine (latest openbeta) - yay for installing outside sim root. On Orbx KSAN with Orbx Socal - I am getting 42ish fps with MaddogX and Active Sky + ASCA clouds 3) Other addons installed - FSUIPC v5 and Active Sky/ASCA Clouds Waiting on FSLabs update - guess what they also install outside. I can't put my finger on it - but HF3 feels very smooth and stable. It is better than HF2 that is for sure.

April 16, 20206 yr Happy you like it... HF2 is very smooth and stable too (at least for me) Whenever you install something from scratch, it will feel better, in my experience.. Bert

April 16, 20206 yr Installed Today HT3. I saw few post about + 10-15 fps more with this patch. For me its placebo maybe but I have near 80-144 of FPS before and now. I didnt notice any issue. Just no TacPack for this version yet.

May 4, 20206 yr I am sticking with v4.5HF2 for now. I do not see any reason to update to HF3. Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester
May 4, 20206 yr Don't know if it is HF3 or my new CPU upgrade ( I9 9900k) But I just did a test at FlyTampa KLAS with quite high settings and I am getting 33-39 FPS landing with the NGXu with the city and airport in view. Before ( with the 8086k I had ) I was barely hitting 30. So maybe the CPU or a comination of both?
May 4, 20206 yr Author HF3 is better than HF2 imho. I mean it fixes things. And for the Tomato Shader questions - I have no idea, never used it. How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)
