  1. Since the CPU is the main driving force for all the Flight Sims, all issues with increased performance relate to the performance of the CPU. I also had the motherboard that you spoke about. I have since traded up to 6700K with a Gigabyte Gaming 7 and 32MB ram. The most important part of my performance increase was the 6700K. Increased efficiencies in processing and use of the memory is the main difference between the different generations. Gen 7 processors have bigger and faster cache which ends up driving your flyability. The 6700K with Air can easily reach 4.5Ghz, not so much the speed but the silicon and design of these current gen processors.
  2. This problem sounds like your ORBX scenery order is wrong or you have some other AFCAD or Airport on top of ESSA. Without see your Scenery.cfg hard to say.
  3. I do the same thing...Saves the frustration of never getting to where you are going. Also relaxing some of the sliders....Smooth as ice
  4. I have good news to report. It seems that the VAS issues that were with the 1080TI cards is resolved with the latest driver...I have let my PMDG 738 sit on the tarmac at KSFO Flight Beam, Orbx NA LC, Orbx Global and Orbx Vector for 5 hours have lost less than 100KB of VAS. By the way this is a great video card lets me push the limit on all Graphic Related settings, I am very careful if it is a setting that is both CPU and Graphic intensive
  5. Well, I finally bit the bullet and upgraded to Creators update. I also upgraded by 1080ti to the latest drivers. I deleted my P3d Cfg and Shader files. I am taking a test flight from EGLL (UK2000) to EKCH Orbx with the basic settings when you start a new CFG. I will report back on any memory leakage. I flew out of EGLL with 1.2M Ram (FSIUPC) and crossed the British Coast with 870K of ram...
  6. If you are like me you are always trying to live on the bleeding edge. This topic will make sense. In reality, I would have thought there was a topic already about the Creators Edition update to Windows 10 and the potential impact on P3D, but I have not seen one. I am downloading to my test machine and see what changes will potentially impact my system. I am wondering has anyone updated their P3D platform and has feedback for this community. If not, I will share my experience as I go forward.
  7. I would be very interested in the difference of VAS usage between MyTraffic and UT Live. I used UT2 for years before switching to MyTraffic, due to P3D. The models are what I liked in UT. I would be interesting to know if anyone has looked at VAS if it is close then I might go for it.
  8. I also use P3D V3.4. I have the same problem. It has happened on FSDT and Flightbeam products. I have taken off from an FSDream Team Airport worked perfectly and then landed at a Flightbeam Airport (PHX), and I have the same problem as above. In an earlier session (Same day) I took off from PHX and it worked correctly. If I restart the SIM it will work....Of course this is frustrating.
  9. I bought it when it first came out. I am speaking personally, the airport is a very good rendition of Milano. It fits in with Orbx Europe LC. Low on VAS utilization for an airport of this size. Utilizes SODE.
  10. Troy...I have the same G940. I only got one choice to configure the joystick when I went in. Rudder. I also can't find the place to configure the game sticks once you have set up? Someone must have done this before. I am seeing if the experience is better then P3D and FSX...So far can't get past setup
  11. RIchard, You have to configure the throttle and joystick on the panel (FMC)....It has been a while but I was where you are. There is a quickstart guide that shows you exactly what to do.
  12. Rob, To say thank you seems shallow or not a enough. I have followed your blog, musings and when I saw this document it blew me away. I am also in IT. The fact that you found the time and the willingness to share your journey into P3d only benefits the whole SIM community. You have picked up the light that Tom Allensworth led the way with (AVSIM), and you have left this community in a better place. I don't normally respond to the forums but this piece of work moved me. Mark
  13. American has been upgraded to their new color scheme, at least what I saw at RDU.
  14. Dave thank you for the thorough reply....I will consider. Can a single Nvidia 980GX drive a LED TV
  15. I am hoping someone can provide me feedback on a Samsung 34 inch curved screen LED-Lit Monitor 21:9 wide aspect ratio....With Ultra HD 3440 x 1440. I am looking to drive with a single Nvidia GSX980 Video card using HDMI 2. I am looking to twice the screen real-estate as compared to my Dell 27inch monitor. Any feedback would be appreciated.
  16. Tom, In life we hope to touch many and so few get this opportunity. You have touched many for many years, I am sure that I am not alone visiting AVSIM everyday to stay connected to a hobby I love. Your dedication and vision as enabled many to enjoy the freedom of flight without leaving their house. You will be continually remembered by all those that walk the forum halls. You have touched many and you will touch many others in the future. What more can man want out of life....God Bless
  17. Thank you...Will wait to see if they release a P3D version...Do you know where you saw that they would release that version? I looked on their site and nothing is stated?
  18. Does anyone have the full (Non-Demo) version of Imaginesim's KAUS working in Prepar3d v2.4? The demo seems to work but I have seen some challenges with Imaginesim Singapore in P3D so am not willing to risk it without some advice from the community. THank you in advance
  19. 15 years in flightsim...since CompuServe days....Rob is the best at keeping us informed
  20. Jazz, Thank you for the suggestion. I disabled it and still no gauges. Both the VC and the standard 2d? Anyone else
  21. Has anyone gotten Tom Ruth's A300 to work in P3d v2.3? The issue is gauges are not visible. if someone knows a technique to fix this it would be appreciated.
  22. As usual with each scenery FSDreamTeam tops the last....Great framerates, but even better visuals. PrePar3D candy for those that use this platform
  23. I have the same issue, I have EMT. Do you need to run in Legacy?
  24. I used Legacy mode and I still have the same problem? Anyone know what I can do....Does anyone have it working on a clean install?
