  1. Thank you for the quick reply. I noticed the airport on the Greek island of Kerkira (one of my favorites) is not bordering the bay in ORBX, as it does in the real world. ORBX does a great job in Nice, France, however. I haven't checked out Marseille, France, or Skiathos, Greece, two of my favorites yet. I will check out Vectors.
  2. I have noted that European coastlines are dramatically distorted in FSX since I started using it in 2006. I purchased Ultimate Terrain Europe to correct this distortion for FSX. I recently purchased Prepar3d as my new FS and note the distortion remains. Ultimate Terrain Europe does not work for me in P3D and the Windows 10 operating system I now use. Does ORBX FTX Global correct the coastlines in Europe and elsewhere? Will ORBX FTX Global will work for me? It appears to be a much better system. Thanks for replies!
  3. Dear God, (never thought I'd email you,but...) I've been wanting to post this hint I just found last week. This may help you and others. Setting auto and boat traffic to ZERO improved my frame rates by 5-8 fps. This won't solve your problem, but might help, plus it gets the hint out to everyone it might benefit. My system is inferior to yours (Pentium E5300 2.6 GHz, 4GB ram, GeF 560). My f/s is currently set for 24. I now get 14-18 f/s in VC, 24 in other views. I read this weekend that PC (therefore, FS) gaming sales are small change to software companies, (compared to Playstation, etc.), these days, and that serious FS programs are unlikely in the future (we are a relatively small community). I will likely upgrade to a i7 3.4+ GHz, 8-12 GB RAM, GeF 620 system and live with FSX and PMDG for the next few years. Check jetlinesystems website for some great FSX computer updating ideas.
