    Agreed. After downloading four patch sets I am completely unimpressed by this new innovative feature from LM. Yet another reason why it’s clear to me the current product direction is to drive LM OUT of the personal market, NOT to increase their marketshare.

    You don't need to sit in front of the PC while the update is running.

    Does it need FfTf? P3d v6? I do not use fftf with my i9 12900K running unlimited fps im p3d v5 all scenery loads fine.

    Unfortunately I don't have a i9 12900K, but only an i7-8700@5GHz and GTX1080Ti with 3 projectors, so FFTF gives a boost of ~8 fps at complex airports. Not very much, but clearly noticeable.

    This debate about the beta version and pricing should finally come to an end. With the beta version HiFiSim has made an offer and it is up to everyone to use this offer or not. I personally have gladly accepted the offer and get along well with the beta version. Not everything is perfect yet, but I am confident that HiFiSim will release a very good product in the end.

    Suggestion: All negative people should maybe have their own thread where they can hype each other up.

    I won't get many likes for this statement, but the discussion here just annoying.

    It is achievable. A friend  has an older pc than me, and he has 30+ fps with 3 55’’ 4k displays. In FS2020 with PMDG 737 800 i get 35-45 fps.

    I'm not familiar with FS2020, but have some experience with P3D view groups. I have some doubts that with the listed hardware configuration 30+ fps with 3 4k displays are achievable. The displays might have 4K but I assume the the resolution settings at the flight simulator are much less than 4K and the displays doing up scaling.

    Good for you, I spent lots of time maintaining

    Well, possibly I'm doing something wrong. I have P3D runing in a full blown B737 home cockpit.  Start P3D and Add-on software, Batt switch 'ON' at the Ovhd and flying. No maintenance required. Do I miss someting?

    Same problem here. Active Sky - most current version. v5.2 w/ HF.

    The METAR out of VHHX today was showing multiple layers of clouds but the sky were clear. After I opened up the sim "option" tab and closed it, the clouds loaded.

    This has been happening on many occasions. For me, it does not matter if EA is on/off.

    Thanks.

    Same here...

    Today, Win11 was pushed as scheduled, and I updated it. After the update, P3D V5.2 works well. It is hoped that LM can solve the terrain penetration problem caused by volumetric clouds in the near HF1.

    Win11 ??????

    Honestly, besides the above mentioned EA cloud quirks etc, I have zero problems with this version. It performs way better than 5.1 ever did - not a single crash, and no stutters/black screens as some are having. I am pretty happy. 

    Be carefull with positive statements here. Not always appreciated 🙂

    Today I updated from 5.1 to 5.2. My initial impression is very positiv.

    Updated components:
    - P3D Client
    - P3D Content

    - P3D.cfg and shaders deleted

    - ActiveSky P3D
    - ASA (not sure if this still makes sense with EA)

    - AI Lights Reborn

    - ViewGroups and SinglePass configuration was takenover from 5.1

    Pro:
    - EA seems to be much improved compared to 5.1
    - Dynamic lights artifacts I was faced to are history
    - Lower framerate (at least on ground), but very smooth
    - Color shade more natural (to achieve these I was using a tweak with 5.1)
    - New menu to change Dynamic lights setting live
    - Taxi lights and landing lights illuminate the ground much better than with 5.1.

    - Spot test of some AddOn airports. No problems encountered


    Cons:
    Thunder lightning looks not very natural (in plain language said it's a disaster)


    Waiting for an update of FFTF Dynamic. The noted lower frame rate might be related to this issue.

    I will stay with P3D. Of course, there is still a lot of room for improvement with P3D, as there is with MSFS. Until the next P3D update
    I enjoy my flight simulator hobby and I will not be angry about every bug in P3D and not get into collecting all bugs. This is certainly more relaxing than waiting daily for a P3D update or posts from the LM P3D development team.

    Every software release process requires resources. This is also true for small updates. For large development teams like ASOBO / MS this may be planned for. For small teams, and I guess LM is a rather small team compared to ASOBO / MS, this is not feasible.
