YMMV I just fly. Airport terminals are on my "avoid if possible" list. Too many bad travel experiences in those places. Too many hours lost. Too many important events missed. Too many lame excuses.... The virtual sky is my escape from that....

April 1, 20233 yr I spent 36 years working for an airline. I have no interest in seeing the inside of the terminals in my flight sim airports. I know some people do so I like the option of being able to turn it off if it helps performance.

Both have reputations for bringing a machine to its knees, but they both run ok on my box (i5 12600k / RTX 3070ti) but Dallas Love currently is a stutter fest for me. I hope some tools to adjust the modeling are soon made available, but for now it’s all or nothing and all is pretty stuttery! -B Edited April 3, 20233 yr by btacon

I just bought it and installed it and flew the Black Square Baron the 10 short miles to KDFW and it was a slideshow. I don't think it was INI, I think it might have been FS Traffic. Not sure. I tried it with a 737 and same thing, it wasn't frames per second but frames per hour. So I'm curious if anyone out there has FS Traffic and has not bought KDAL if you fly from KDAL to KDFW and see if it's a slideshow. My PC ain't a powerhouse but I do have a 3070. Thanks. Jack.
