Where can I set shadows to 4K in MSFS 2020? Shadow Maps and Terrain Shadows both have maximum value at 2K. Edit: I forgot about the config.opt ... Do I set both to 4K?

It's an artificial restriction of the companies to provide only a few extremely high-priced 24G+ video cards. I will never go down below 24 GB VRAM, so my upgrade possibilities are limited and expensive too.

Done (with pleasure)

Is it possible that the sim adjusts the VRAM usage to video card capabilities? I barely see less than 10 GB vram usage with my card. At dense airports I see 15-18 GB being used.

My first purchase from IB that I deeply regret. I will be more careful with future purchases.

I'm not gonna criticize BATC, but I'm a happy user of FSHUD. One might regard it as boring too, but for me it does its job. Currently, I prefer FSHUD over BATC, mainly because its better ai handling (imo). For me, the more important problem is how the sim handles ATC/AI. The sim ai engine is mediocre to say it best. The devs try to overcome these limitations. That earns my respect and that's why I have both, BATC and FSHUD.

LLS = LosslessScaling . You have to add the program first in in NV Control Panel then you can change VSync.

Interesting, I have nearly the same: Monitor @ 60, LLS x2, MSFS VSync Off, NVP MSFS @ 30 fps (evth else = default), BUT: NVP LLS VSync ON. No tearing issue.

same here ... except Tylenol 😉

What has IniBuilds to do with it? The "aggressive LOD system" has been discussed very often (and very recently, e.g. landing gears). Unfortunately, it seems that it will never be fixed by MS/Asobo.

where?

I've been complaining about this over and over again. But I have the impression that many of us simply don't care about ai a/c visuals. And maybe because of that, MS/Asobe don't care either. LOD restrictions (not only landing gears but many other airport objects too) have been entered with SU5(?) 3? years ago for XBox compatibility reasons. That was it.

"Launching Game" window takes much more than the usual 8s to end with an error message " For this game you must be online .... or the Xbox server are down ... " It may be an xbox server problem, but I cannot see any issues with Xbox. Xbox status, all is checked green.

I've made the same experience.

I really, really wish they would revisit the LOD behavior. I hate to see a/c floating without landing gears in close distance. It is even worse when you see one in 100ft distance with landing gears and the one next to it without. Too bad. It seems to be even worse than in MSFS 2020. Just landed at KCGN (default) ... it looks terrible with these aggressive (internal) LOD settings.
