Consensus on Solar Farms, Powerlines, & We Love VFR

Recommended Posts

Been away for awhile. wanted to know if folks are still using these. I read awhile back that these were causing performance issues, so I uninstalled them. That was a few SU's ago. Curious as to whether any of you are still using these or have noticed anything with regards to performance degradation.

The powerlines mod still causes issues (at least on my end) but Solar Farms is not that bad.  I removed everything but the factories mod.

Have been using them since release, never noticed any significant performance degredation.

I agree; there are some intermittent stutters, but as soon as I uninstalled them, it went smooth.

I just use We love VFR and just enable it for the region where I'm going to fly with Addons Linker. The other ones were causing issues for me too, so I uninstalled them.

I use the USA we love vfr stuff since the beginning.

i use the powerlines as well cause it places the orange and white balls on wires as you approach a runway which is realistic.

There's some impact on performance, but the benefits of having those powerlines, etc., in the sim outcomes that impact

I use them all in VR, think the Powerlines and/or Solar Farms did suffer from performance issues but I've used them for so long I don't notice any more, either way all superb mods and highly recommended.

I use welovevfr and powerlines but was not so keen on the solar farms.  We lovevfr runs smoothly but the powerlines has a small effrct that I am happly to live with (the pros outweigh the cons).
