December 30, 20214 yr I think there is some increase of VRAM in 5.3 HF1. Just tried to depart in EDDM (simwings) with same settings which I used in 5.2 and got an out of memory warning 🙂 Whatever, I will reduce my Texture Size to 1024 until my new graphic card will arrive.... Cheers, Bernd🌈✈️
December 30, 20214 yr Ouch thought i was home free with 2048 textures ha ha 🥶 PMDG 777 , YBBN ORBX including Cityscape , ,ASP3D + Vol. Clouds No stutter btw. HF1+1 5.3 Michael Moe https://ibb.co/wW9dnCy https://ibb.co/w6T30Nf Edited December 30, 20214 yr by Michael Moe Michael Moe
January 3, 20224 yr Author Thanks then I'll try medium textures instead of high. Are there big differences between middle and high?

January 4, 20224 yr Moderator LatinVFR KMIA with the PMDG737NGXu eats 8.1 Gb VRAM in Ultra and 7.3 in Very HIgh. Seems better with v5.3HF1 as I used to get Out of VRAM with earlier versions.

Seems better with v5.3HF1 as I used to get Out of VRAM with earlier versions. Interesting. With my PMDG 744, I get High textures 6.4/7.1 and originally when first loaded Ultra gave 6.8/7.1, but when changed "live" as a comparison it was too much and crashed 7.1/7.1.

Perhaps the aircraft was a factor. Try a Cub and I’m sure it’ll be fine even on Ultra. And you still had 900Mb free so it shouldn’t have crashed. Ray (Cheshire, England).

February 13, 20224 yr V5.3 HF2 Looking for VRAM settings tweaks due to a flight, JF C-46, Orbx Edinburgh to Orbx Leeds Bradford. 6 GB VRAM card, 5.2 available. Got out of Edinburgh on 4.2 GB but into LB hit 5.2 & CTD, about 2 miles out. Of the various VRAM tweaks in this thread, which would you start with? T45

LOD radius and EA with vol. clouds can also hit pretty hard.

I tested Leeds Bradford again loading with a GA aircraft, same settings as yesterday = CTD on load, VRAM hit 5.2. I them made 3 changes: Texture Resolution from High [2048 x 2048], down to Medium, [1024 x 1024] LOD Radius from Ultra to Medium Volumetric Clouds off. Reloaded LB with the JF C-46 & VRAM dropped to 3.2 on load up & stayed there. I can see the difference in ground textures, but it is acceptable. I will refine the 3 changes to see what visual improvement I can get back, but what you outlined does work. & I can now get in & out of Leeds Bradford. T45 Footnote - Testing the 3 tweaks, I found that just turning Volumetric Clouds from Low to Off was worth 0.5GB, enough to make LB work. Edited February 13, 20224 yr by Treetops45
