  1. Hi, Daniel. Hope you are well. It is good to see you here again. I don't think you are the last one to fly FU3 😀. I keep flying in FU3 skies, almost once weekly, even though I don't drop in here often. And guess what? I keep loving it!
  2. And welcome to FU3 skies, springer5 😀 It is amazing that after 20+ years this sim keeps giving joy. Don't forget to experiment with the true gem of the sim, the weather! There is a recent post on the forum wherein I mentioned a link to a document by Peter James (one of the sim designers), detailing the weather workings.
  3. We are lucky to still have this article around. Hope you find it interesting. http://alfozavr.wikidot.com/fu3-hints-tips
  4. Hi. I still get as much enjoyment flying FU3 as MSFS 2020. Especially when I want to experiment with the weather. Just recently I re-read an insightful article by Peter James about the settings and the weather. I will post it on the forum.
  5. I have re-installed FU3 after my laptop's reformat. I am using dgVoodoo latest version 2.76. It is great for applying AA and AF. It also allows different resolutions. I also use Reshade latest version 4.9.1 for color adjustment and such (not necessary really to run FU3). Both work beautifully for me. I cannot find Hennie's rain sound in avsim library. Anyone still has that?
  6. Why use ContrastAdaptiveSharpen and LumaSharpen together? With Dgvoodoo2 AA, that is 3 antialias.
  7. For FU3, Anisotropic 4x is enough as I couldn't see any texture improvement in the distance with 16x. I don't use Bilinear blit stretch Apply Phong shading
  8. I am not experiencing this. Maybe it is one of the filters? I am using these 4 filters and they are great: Deband Pirate_Bloom DELC_Sharpen Pirate_Vibrance
  9. Hi. On the contrary. I myself like to see attempts to keep improving on the sim. Right now I have a perfectly running FU3. I kept all settings on dgvoodoo2 on default except AA and AF.
  10. I hope I am posting the image properly. FU3 weather is fascinating and can be generated any which way you want. I like the cold fronts more as the warm fronts usually have a low ceiling and require that you fly at 1000 ft or less to have some visibility. https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArUCpDk7pPaAkTWIyA9QRjC91zWc
  11. Patrikmore, the UsePuffCloudModels is much better on. Without it, the big cumulus clouds have an unrealistic flat bottom
  12. Thank you, Ansgar. I will dig into it, as I love tweaking my skies hehe... I wonder what the differences are between this and Laurie's.
  13. Ah, thank you, Patrikmore. I will compare it with what I have.
  14. Very nice screenshot, patrikmore, with the raw look of FU3 that we love. Thanks for sharing. There isn't a single cloud in the sky! I always fly with a very busy sky, especially menacing ones 🙂. While in FU3, I spend as much time experimenting in the Weather Page as I spend in flight hehe.
  15. It is nice patrikmore to see how much pleasure you are deriving from FU3. As to me, whenever I crave flying in rain (I love rain and dark weather), I jump into FU3. FS2020 still doesn't have that magic feel of flying in a rainy or stormy weather as FU3.
  16. In FS2020, when I am near cities, I use Low settings, and as soon as I move away, I bump the settings to High. Low settings are a pleasure to fly with though. It should run great on any average system. The loading time has been cut greatly. If you wish to fly the airliners, better to wait for more fixes, but if you like GA like I do, don't delay getting this fabulous sim.
  17. About FS 2020. I got the Standard version from day one, and from that day it has been a pleasure to fly. Bugs are there but, for me, they are not affecting the joy of simming in it. I would rate it personally a solid 9 out of 10. Updates and fixes come every 2 weeks! Updating for me is headache-free. Two days back, I was flying in Africa, over the Sahara, in the middle of nowhere. But the textures, the villages, the roads were unbelievable to see in a sim. And I still fly FU3 hehe... Each sim has its charm
  18. It flies OK for me. I don't like flying it, just tried it to see if there are issues. There aren't that I could notice.
  19. Hi, Ansgar. Very nice to hear from you.
  20. Hi. I adjusted the white lines in the Trainer with the same procedure. How can I pass it to you? And yes I use joykeys.cfg
  21. In the Readme file of FU3 folder, there are references to clouds : - Large cloud models (aka cumulus clouds). - "puffs" within a cumuliform cloud - Large cloud decks are rendered using "puffs", arranged in a grid, and have a "backdrop" when viewed from above or below. Has anyone been able to correctly identify which is which in the sim skies?
