The lighting and the clouds are far superior than XP11. https://fsprocedures.com Your home for all flight simulator related checklist.

If that reflects (sic) the quality of pbr reflections generally then the world should also look a lot better. i910900k, RTX 3090, 32GB DDR4 RAM, AW3423DW, Ruddy girt big mug of Yorkshire Tea

October 21, 20214 yr I installed POP OS on a second drive last night. Xplane runs buttery smooth, not sure if it's any faster. I also installed Steam and got a couple of windows games to run! POP OS seems like jail broken windows! It sure is refreshing having an alternative to the bloated spying OS! Big Tech does not have our best interest in mind.

And once I know that the specs required to achieve these visuals are in line with an average home PC and do not require a super computer I'll be a happy bunny. Shots like this are irrelevant if I still have to have reflections set one above minimum. Edited October 22, 20214 yr by jarmstro

It's just like natural law, you can't have reflections on max and you can't have buildings on max because no computer can compute this AND the Austin Meyer flight model even in XP11 with the... less intense graphics 😉 That's of course because using more than one thread makes your computer slower and using more than 30% of GPU power is not possible because that would require wonders that every serious aviation simming engineer knows are not possible 😉 Sarcasm off now - the pic looks really good. Interested in seeing more of that. Laminar Research customer -- Asobo/MS customer -- not an X-Aviation customer - or am I? 😉

Fortunately, a recent half decent GPU from Nvidia, AMD or even Intel (their new Xe range, launched in Sept 2020) count as one. 2 hours ago, rka said: That's of course because using more than one thread makes your computer slower Yes I get the sarcasm, but just in case you missed it, the issue that what was being discussed is why linux based applications: 18 hours ago, mrueedi said: From 8 to 12 threads, the boost is even more than 100%! This is excellent Whilst stuff built with windows cruft https://www.tomshardware.com/features/microsoft-flight-simulator-benchmarks-performance-system-requirements Quote There's a bit more stuttering when you first load into a flight with the 6-core/6-thread chip, but nothing major. The same goes for the Ryzen 9 3900X and Ryzen 5 3600. The beastly 12-core/24-thread chip is a bit faster, but it never delivered more than a 6% advantage, and then only at 1080p/1440p ultra. So my apologies for the overly generous 20-30% I mentioned earlier. AutoATC Developer
