Shadow/Lights - No Performance Hit

Featured Replies

Here's another example of how well MSFS runs on old hardware and limited RAM:

In P3D even turning shadows/ambient light, or whatever that was called, to its lowest setting brought my system to its knee in an instant. 

In MSFS no performance hit whatsoever.

The number of light sources this engine can handle is amazing. Still catch myself flicking the switches off out of force of habit...

I don't see a big difference compared to this P3D example.

Whereas this MSFS pic has more going for it once you give it more than a quick glance:
