May 30, 20224 yr No issues here either...smooth as silk and stunning. Will have to take her up today - having fallen in love with the 737-700 I can’t touch anything else lately.
May 30, 20224 yr I’m glad to read this! She’s always been a favorite of mine, and in this Sim she’s a magic carpet ride at under 10k. The world rolls by under sturdy wings, accompanied by the all pervasive sonorous sounds of 4 radials and the vibratory assault of farm levers and dials, dancing with their hypnotic enchantment. She’s a unique and superlative experience for the modern flight sim enthusiast and I’m happy to see her devotees not allowing a few unhappy individuals to soil her Damascus Linen. Long may she plough the skies! Best- Carl Avari-Cooper

If I don’t use it this way I find the DC-6 unusable. Just a constant stuttering mess. It’s not unflyable, it’s not a stuttering mess either and I’ve got an ancient system too. However, for those of you who haven’t, try the above; go into dev mode and enable nano vg and be prepared for a surprise. It runs beautifully 😃. What was the update that gave us the greatly increased performance and put the sim on Xbox, SU5 or SU6? I’ve forgotten. Basically, when that happened Asobo turned off a couple of the channels PDMG were using to run the cockpit of the DC6. This means the cockpit of the DC6 is currently running at pre SU5 performance. Enabling dev mode and nano vg for this ‘plane gives it the sims current performance. It’s an eye opener. PMDG have been asked repeatedly what is happening with this - there’s a thread about this on their forum - and apparently they are still waiting on Asobo. It’s turning into a long wait...

Read the post above yours - it's not up to PMDG to fix Asobo's issues. And while it's nice to see what it's capable of when Nano VG is active, it's far from bad without it, and certainly doesn't justify hundreds of man-hours on PMDG's side in order to work around an issue that might even get fixed with the next sim update.

Been hearing that for about a year, I doubt if it will ever be fixed.
June 20, 20223 yr PMDG Dc6 is causing a big performance hit for me. 40 % worse then the ju-52 asobo. Versus other more serious addons like milviz 30r less difference but still considerable harder to drive the DC6 I am at 25 fps where I am at 45 on the easier to drive aircraft and over 35 on the milviz 3080 but old cpu i770K running in dx 11 mode. Will try the nano VG setting 🙂
June 20, 20223 yr Another with no performance issues at all with the DC-6 AMD Ryzen 7 5800x3d, MSI X570 Pro, 32 gb DDR4 3600 ram, Gigabyte 6800 16gb GPU, 1x 2tb Samsung NvMe , 1x 2tb Sabrent NvME, 1x Crucial 4tb Nvme M2 Drive

Read that in the future it will be the primary method. If you have the sdk enabled its available in the options menu. Use nanovg for xml or something like that.
June 25, 20223 yr Seems its relative few with issues and the DC6 . i might step in again (i have it for P3dv4) but havent touch it since 2020. These NanoVG options is it only related to DC6 or is other aircrafts benefit of this also ? Performance seems also server depended sometimes as i have had really problems at same locations with the same aircraft but days between flights. Michael Moe Michael Moe
