As a start :


AGL mode

Now you will have max FPS on and near the ground and good terrain loading when flying higher .

I have not seen any effect of FFTF whatsoever. I have tried all altitudes with all settings but to no avail. I am on P3D V5.1 HF 1. Absolutely no effect, no FPS gain, no texture/autogen gain or other gain. A waste of money in my opinion.

What settings are you using? I find it works best with unlimited FPS set in p3d vsync on and limit frames externally. 
 

I have mine set to FPS scenario in FFTF with fftf range 0.01 - 0.6. 

AMD Ryzen 5900X - Asus Crosshair VI Hero - G.Skill 32GB (2x16GB) 3000 C14 DDR4 @ 3600 14-14-15-14-28-42

AMD Red Devil Radeon 6900XT  2700/2112 1125mv - 3 x Iiyama G-Master GB2888UHSU 4k @ 11560x2160

I updated FFTF to the P3D 5.2 version. However, I do run into some issues. First of all, when you want to update the program says that you have to uninstall the previous version. However there is no way I could uninstall it the normal way. So I deleted the entire folder. Then I installed the new version, which opened up normally but FPS and FFTF jump up and down like crazy. When I close FFTF, FPS remains steady but way too low, which is way I need FFTF. P3d settings are: limited to 30 FPS , no Vsync and no TB. 

Any idea guys?

Thanks!!

FFTF When you run the installer it will tell you, you need to delete the old version then let it delete and install the new version, the installer will do this for you.

Is the 5.2 version of FFTF compatible with HF1 or will we have to wait for another version?

No, it's not compatible, have to wait for an update.

Why does FFTF Dynamic always end up broken after every single P3D point release?

I can sort of understand Active Sky because changes are always made to the weather

system with which it interacts.

FFTF Dynamic is a great product and I can't use P3D without it, but it is

frustrating that we always have to wait at least a week for an update after every point

release when all my other addons - of which there are many e.g FSUIPC, GIT, LINDA,

OC4BA - work perfectly.

Just a thought.

Agree... especially due to the fact it is a must (for me at least)

Is it?

I wonder if there's a valid objective review of what it actually does (or does not) do?

I'm on the fence about this one. I used to run it for p4d but I can't recall it having any dramatic effect. perhaps this benefits weaker systems more.

It's not a huge investment but I'd rather not have it if it turns out to be a snake oil of sorts eventually....

is there any evidence other than users subjective impressions?
