Would it kill people to come up with meaningful thread titles that summarize or state the problem? - thus allowing folks searching for solutions to a similar issues to actually find the thread.

Nope 3440X1440p on a Samsung Ultrawide Monitor.😁

Love all the armchair advice.🤣 I run a 360TI, with 32 gigs of RAM - by all accounts a medium to medium/low system. I have everything set to medium and high, with TLOD and OLOD at 100. Cockpit gauge refresh rate at high. Texture resolution and offline terrain precaching are two of the biggest performance killers - set both to medium. I have my framerates capped at 30 fps and use AeroTune to balance the system. Various programs are running outside my sim. I get - with few exceptions - smooth performance and a steady framerate. Fly the plane and don't worry about things that only pixel peepers care about.

ChasePlane was updated to work with the new Beta. @MarcG The same old tired arguments.

This, to me, is the more interesting news: https://navigraph.com/blog/epic-2-msfs-2024

Exactly this. As I mentioned, I use Claude and Claude Cowork on a daily, and it is, at the very least, a massive time saver. The "negative" comments about AI on this thread mostly show a complete lack of knowledge of the current state of AI, or are based on what AI used to do a couple of years ago. Obviously, if you use AI the way you use Alexa, the results are going to be predictable.

Dear Lord, this started out about a small addition to SI (I tried it, the results were mixed), and we're now in Terminator territory. BTW, I use Claude and Claude Cowork every day in my work, and I think it's an amazing productivity tool - provided you know what you're doing. We're way passed the "asking a chatbot a question" stage.

If I remember correctly, the FSW version even had the option of dual GTN 750s. The Contrail one doesn't? Hard pass.

Vectoring during the approach phase is mostly garbage. BATC provides some background ATC chatter, and it can now inject real live traffic. The voices are decent. That's about it.

I don't even know where the wasm folder is.

Worth it for the sounds alone. Best biz jet currently on the market.

With all this visual detail + GSX visible passengers enabled - you'll need 6 Nato-class graphic cards held together by rubber bands just to get 20 fps at a 720 resolution. 😂

...anything other than a tiny handful of grainy videos - and a big mouthful of marketing boilerplate. 😁

Wasn't that the one where the developer immediately threw a massive temper tantrum as soon as anyone suggested providing tool tips in English? 😆

The first post as well as the web site reads like it was written by AI.

It compares very favorably. Systems wise they seem to be on par. The Sovereign+ is worth it just for the sounds alone. Textures, though, are way better on the Longitude.

No, it's called immersion! 😂

You poop gold coins?

Citation Sovereign + vs Phenom 300....and the winner is: The Citation Sovereign + - Boris' sounds are fantastic. You could spend hours just listening to the start up sound of the engine. Great interactive walkaround mode with proper "latch logic". Stable flier, not too hard on frame rates. Nice implementation of the WT Garmin 5000. If you know how to fly the Citation Longitude, you can pretty much get this plane started and up in the air in no time. Cheaper than the Phenom, longer range, no silly gimmicks like passenger satisfaction or low rez FBOs. IMHO, the sounds are worth the price of the addon. Negative: No Manual Low Rez X-Plane type textures

Thank you very much!

Great tool. Would it be possible to extend the flight time to, say, 2 hours?

How and why does it feel "rushed"?

Yup, I've been saying this for years: you want better performance? Turn down your settings!

I mean, there are still folks on here who "recommend" disabling the community folder during updates.
