Eventually it all decompressed and loaded fine. Just wait.

Decompressing for over an hour. Quit and try again??

1. Weather Radar 2. Better camera system needed (yes I know it works and how to do it but I think it can be better and easier)

Weather Radar, good camera system.

If they can keep the fps down like they said (4fps with 50 aircraft) then definitely a game changer. I use FSHUD and just injecting a few aircraft hugely affects the fps and adding a realistic amount for me is a fps killer.

I did. Worked fine for me. Definite improvements! Smoother, better FPS, looks and feels great. Darcy

I too don't care about interiors. I never quite understand why. Just make them look good pulling to the gate. I also will probably get the one that is best on performance and looks half decent.

Anyone know where I can get a good GSX profile for this CYYJ scenery? Thanks

If there was just a way to reduce the cpu usage in the larger airports this would be perfect. Beta is better than 1.246 but fps in airports drops like a rock. This is with FSLTL: 25 static and 15 active. Unchecking eternal and everything goes back up. I am told by developers that this is an asobo problem. But it does make it unusable in large airports though (at least for me). Too bad because I really like this ATC. Hopefully they can come up with work around.

I am most looking forward to performance improvements as it is quite hard on fps compared to the PMDG.

I hope that means that Fsimstudios is doing CYYC. Much needed airport!!

For me too much money for not as good scenery. I pay less for individual airports from quality developers. I guess I will wait.

Personally not a fan of Simaddons. It tried them in P3D and they just look cartoony. Are they better in MSFS? Very very pricey. Thanks

I believe Fsimstudios is doing cyyc, cyyj and cyeg as said is coming out soon. CYWG I have not heard about that but if I was you I would check with Fsimstudios. Thanks for asking.

Is the MCDU not suppose to count down miles and match the ND? When it acquires the waypoint the mileage just stays at the number it was on when acquired? The ND shows the correct countdown but not the MCDU. Is that a bug or is that normal (other airbus sims countdown in MCDU). Thanks Darcy

Anyone get the issue with the MCDU not counting down the miles to waypoint. The ND shows correct but the MCDU just stays stuck on the miles? 2 flights now and the same issue both times. Yes I submitted a ticket, just curious if anyone else has this issue. Darcy

I love it and have ditched Proatc. They have been very responsive to tickets and fix issues quite quickly. Adds better immersion factor for me and I use it most flights. This and "A pilots life chapter 2" have really made P3D v5 even better! Darcy

So I did go ahead and buy this software and I am enjoying the ATC on my first flight. So far so good and the traffic works just fine. Thanks!

This looks great and will probably get it. But I am a little confused. I use AIG traffic. Will this not work then? Any point in getting this software until it does work with AIG?? Thanks Darcy

I totally agree. 5.3 with hotfixes is the best performance and stability I have ever had. Flying is such a treat now and tweaking left to a minimum. I could never fly into Flytampa cyyz without stutters, now I fly in there quite often and no stutters! Darcy

Just finished my 4th flight on 5.3 HF2 and have not gotten the dreaded FPS, stutters and spikes that popped up every 2 or so flight. This has been the best update for me for smooth flight (turned up my settings too). My hardest airport on frames was cyyz is now smooth and I can fly in and out of there with no stutters or major fps drop. I am one happy simmer and P3D 5.3 HF2 is great! Way to go LM. Darcy

Yes I have seen this thread, but I thought my issue was different? I get excellent fps and the smoothest flights ever since owning p3d. It is just once in 3 or 4 flights that the issue pops up and a save and reload is the only option and then things are excellent again. Maybe I should go back and wade through the thread but not sure it relates to my issue.

I have read this happening somewhere before but cannot find a solution that works. I get the dreaded stuttering and freezing every so often (not every flight), I am able to save the flight, reload the flight and all is well. Not sure what is causing this but I have tried many things when this happens and only a save and restart works. After reload I can finish the flight with no problems. 5.3 with the hotfixes is the smoothest ever, except for this problem which happens every 3 flights or so. Anyone else get this? I have tried the power saving option, simlink reinstall, EA on and off, ASP3D restart. No luck, save and reload only solution.

I have bought from Simaddons before. Not even close in quality to Fsimstudios. They (Simaddons) were cartoony to me. I also found them quite pricey for what you get. Just my too cents.
