Just Coming Back To MSFS

Featured Replies

I gave it up for a while.  I got into a couple other pastimes, enjoyed other games and sims, and when you don't practice your flying very much it seems to freak you out a little about jumping back in.

I have to say, I haven't flown anything since probably February of last year and HOLY word not allowed!  The sim looks, runs, and performs so much better!  

I took a little while to sit down with my favorite youtube channels to brush up on what I forgot and absolutely GREASED a landing into Vancouver (CYVR) with all the settings maxed and hitting over 100 FPS the whole time. 

 

It's an absolute joy. I forgot how calming and rewarding this pastime is. Great job to ASOBO.  Great job to Fenix. Man I'm happy!

Going back to KPDX...  I'll let you all know how it goes.

Welp...  

 

Not well.  I'm pretty sure most people would have survived, but...  

 

Lol..  I have more practice to do.   I seem to remember if you have the KPDX after market airport installed, the ILS glideslopes get a little... mmm bad. 

 

That's what I'm going with though!  I had a lot of fun tonight regardless if 150 or so people have at minimum concussions or at worst not alive.

I assume you are using frame generation?  Imagine getting over 100 FPS in a flight simulator back in the day with all the add-ons loaded in, but this is possible with MSFS now at the level of graphics we are getting in MSFS 😁.

You may get even better FPS with SU 15.  Supposedly, Working Title has optimized the glass cockpit avionics to eek out a few more frames. Supposedly, the optimization that Working Title did with glass cockpit avionics should reduce stuttering at larger airports, and make the FPS smoother.  I guess we will see when SU 15 is released.

In addition to glass instruments optimizations by WT (which will help with aircraft like the 787/747/etc), Asobo have also optimized core sim memory usage in SU15 to the tune 100x-200x improvements which then translates to few FPS increase and more importantly smoothness and ridding of intermittent stutters apparently.
