Wow I have a little bit less powerful pc than you (4790K/980Ti/32gb ram) and I get 35 fps with most settings maxed or near max.

The only thing I would consider is turning down reflections (all the way down) and unchecking the shadows checkmark box. With those 2 off I can MAX OUT every other setting and get 30 fps in the Flight Factor 757 with xenviro, sitting at a gate in JFK.

As for xenviro, I get the same frames with it turned ON, or with it OFF, EXACT SAME FRAMERATE...EXACT!!! And you see a huge difference in the environment. I have xenviro pretty much set to max setting.

So if you don't care for shadows or reflections, then turn those off and your sim will be smoking with everything else set to max...35fps!

I love autogen, so that's why I turned the other 2 things off, never even knew I was looking at shadows, so I said if I don't even notice them (and they were there), then why turn them on...turned them off and cranked everything else to MAX.

Oh my, the money I spent on cardboard boxes from the late 90s to the late 2000s.

I highly doubt we will get the entire world in DTGs new sim. They will sell you the U.S. 1 state at a time.

Hey all,

I fly P3D and xplane 10 and was curious if there is a add-on that tracks certain things automatically for me.

I would like it to track, taxi times, air times, taxi fuel, inflight fuel, leanings speeds and aircraft type. The base logbooks don't do such a thing so is there a good pay ware add-on for these things?

Thanks,

Marc

Still only windows 7, man people hate us 8 users

You think xplane would use it?

I'm building a 32gb RAM computer for the DSF textures this Christmas so I hope 10.40 is out by them. I also hope the 980ti is out, I really don't want to spend $1,000 on the Titan X!!!

Will it be released this year? Don't these updates take a long time?

This plane, extended DSF textures and Rotates MD80, the year of x-plane

With Rotate and IXEG, airline quality is right around the corner.

Ok Darkstar, you got me worried, what history?

Well FSX is abandoned so people will continue to move to P3D.

With PMDG moving to P3D and Xplane, the last rock for FSX has fallen.

Thanks man...

Thanks for the info man

Marc

Is there a option in the settings for it or do I have to edit the config.

Thanks man,

Marc

Hey all,

I posted asking about Xplane also but wanted to post in the P3D forum since I will run both games at 1920X1200.

My question is, will P3D v2.4 run at a resolution of 1920X1200?

If so, do I have to edit the config file or is there a option in the menu settings for 1920X1200.

Thanks,

Marc

Hey all,

About to buy a new monitor for my new rig. (4790K/GTX980/16GBram)

I would like to know if xplane 10 has a option to run the simulator at a resolution of 1920X1200.

Is there a option in the menu for 1200 or do I have to edit the config somehow?

Also, if anyone runs 1200, how are the letters, are the numbers and letters on the gauges streched and unreadable?

Thanks,

Marc

So just to be clear, nobody thinks these new people can sue LM and force them to shut down P3D?

Wow,Flight sure looks good.Am I the only one starting to get worried that they plan to sell the simulator piece by piece? I am very worried that this simulator will not contain any part of the mainland (other 49 states) on release day.Marc

Yeah lets see something.I need to go to the local bookstore and see if its out.

Hey all,E3 will be here in less then 2 months and was curious if Microsoft might display a little of Flight at the show. This is the "event" for displaying games, so lets hope we get a little bit of info at E3.Marc

Looking better everyday!!!

Hughes,I bet you $100 you can't find the first pic in Marchs sreenshot presentation. Marc

Can I fly without voice on vatsim/ivao? Some people are deaf and need the text based format that MS gives.I remember years ago we had the option to interact VIA text on vatsim, is it still that way today?

Your gut is lying to you, lol. In the latest press release on Jan 28th, they addressed the concern of having to be online and said that being online is not required. Basically you can fly the same as you do in FS9/FSX and can have all the "me time" that you want.I would imagine that since AI and jetways have been part of the sim for as long as I can remember, or at least since FS2002, I doubt they would remove those features. Although the AI will most likely be the same as it has been for the last few versions where they use those fictitious airline names like World Travel, etc. We will probably still have to use 3rd party AI if we want real world carriers.
