    Wow!
  2. One of the most realistic videos I have ever seen about Xp12 at it's BEST! The guy must be frying his rig with these settings and amount of addons, since mine, with simply MEP, Traffic Global and X-World, already get's to the top TEMPs I've ever experienced running sims, and actually is now out for repair, for more than a week, because the Mobo probably crashed for good :-((( But heck, if you don't have problems with paying huge power bills,, and have a top notch rig, you can probably get to this level of quality, which, IMO is second to no other platform! Xp12 is so realistic, the lighting, the colours, the crispness, the details even at some default airports... X-Plane 12 en 2026 avec quelques addons et plugins
  3. Depends on the use you give to the sim. If I used it ONLY for soaring I wouldn't brother...
  4. Did the hot fix fix it ? Does it look (even) better now? How are you using XWP ? With Orthos With other libraries Standalone
  5. The biggest problem with AI Traffic addons in Xp12 is indeed the fact that they aren't controlled by the sim ATC... Using the default AI Traffic is no option for me because it hammers even more my desktop, and I already struggle to simply rum Xp12 with Traffic Global, using default ATC (which is not that bad after all) and keep CPU / GPU temps bellow 75ºC :-// Maybe one day they find a way to model default or addon AI traffic more efficiently and integrated with ATC.
  6. Good findings @LRBS ... Now that my desktop has crashed for good and went for repair (( although I still think the culprit was Win11 latest update... because other desktops and laptops of users I know from work are suffering from similar symptoms... )) I can't even do what I would rush doing, just for the sake of having the satisfaction of uninstalling one or both of them 🤣after trying a similar scenario in the PMDG 737... One of the most - well the most advanced ever flight simulator I was able to use so far is Aerowinx PSX. From time to time rw 744 pilots would comment on "deviations" from reality experienced under some rather weird scenarios... and Hardy would promptly cure them :-) with a lightspeed patch.
  7. Traffic Global by Justflight was my best option so far.
  8. Corret @flightwusel ! Loss of rudder effectiveness is something we have to deal with when performing hammerheads in gliders! regarding the Xp12 "anti torque bug", it has been plaguing the sim since quite a while. LR is working on it, might get fixed for 12.5, or at least prtially fixed (?) In the meanwhile I continue to avoid prop aircraft in Xp12 because they don't act realistically in as far as prop effects go. Pick the powerful P51D (Skunkcrafts version for xp12), go straight up to the top of the hammerhead, full power, full RPM, and watch the thing starting to "anti-torque roll" clockwise (?????) due to teh overdone propwash effects calculations that create way too much lift from the port wing. It's even more evident in twin props, non counter rotating. I believe 12.5 will hopefully fix it 🤞
  9. Superb info by @LRBS , as usual !!!
  10. Although it appears to be a counter-rotating prop aircraft, I will NOT invest in ANY prop aircraft for Xp12 while the anti-torque bug doesn't get fixed :-// For me, I am very sad to have to admit, it's a real show stopper ... Last week I purchased the Skunkcraft P51D for Xp12, went flying it and found me rotating CW at the top of the hammerhead, full power full RPM... No No No !!! Good news is 12.5 might fix it !!!
  11. Others have suggested that you keep trying.... May take up a couple days .... Cloudy stuff obscurates sim pleasure :-//
  12. Best Marriage Proposal, Firefighter To Helicopter Pilot. Epic! Still not viable through AI, with or without LLMs :-)
