September 11, 2025Sep 11 Had a very nice morning flight from my hometown of Bergen over the mountain to Oslo (fun fact, the route is 35-45 minutes by plane and 6-8 hours with a car/train depending on conditions). Latest Fenix version released yesterday I believe, MSFS 2020, Bergen Freeware and Aerosoft Oslo in use in the images below. Specs is in my signature. Settings are all over high-ultra except for bloom and the other settings on the bottom that affects performance unecessary when I only fly the Fenix (as an image in the middle will show evidence of). Clouds and texture resolution is also ultra and AutoFPS controls TLOD from 50 on the ground up to 400 at FL200. VRAM is meant to be used, and even though it is difficult to leave things, I have over the years practised set and forget when I have reached the limits of my hardware (with a buffer needed to avoid stutters). My 2080Ti can go up to 9GB in use at cruise due to the TLOD setting, but with my AutoFPS setting the VRAM maxed out at 9.2 on landing in Oslo, but usually about 8.8 since this was an 8K livery and I usually use 4K. FG mod in use and FPS is stable all the way at 60. To write about a smoothness like that is very easy, but I always like to back it up with some reference, so at first is an image showing the Fenix at the gate in Oslo at another occation, but I had not panned around or anything then so about 8.8 is more the correct value, but shows my frametimes etc. I am capable of far higher FPS when converting the frametimes to FPS, but I also have an old Dell monitor with no sync capabilites and at 60Hz (2560x1440) so it has been quite the job to find the sweetspot. RTSS is used for FPS capping and I have it capped at 59.8 and vsync enabled in NVCP. Finally been able to have my computer at my own place since I newly moved and were I lived before we had an internet connection I would rate as antique (not even mentioning the speed we had). With an included 500/500 connection now, the computer of course has gotten it's own spot already.

September 12, 2025Sep 12 Great set of photos! The weather shots look amazing! I don't suspect your photos are reverse image...just curious...do you fly from the right seat? (Your controllers seem to indicate that you do.)

I don't suspect your photos are reverse image...just curious...do you fly from the right seat? (Your controllers seem to indicate that you do.) Yes, that is correct! The reason for me usually flying from the right is the joystick I had before that I couldn't change to be left handed, and it just feels more correct to match the position with where you are sitting in the sim. I haven't bothered changing it on my thrustmaster yet, so I guess I enjoy being an FO for a while still. Benjamin Hennes Ryzen 7 7800X3D | Strix 2080Ti 11GB | 32GB DDR5 | 1TB SSD | Windows 11 Home
