    Yikes, no can do that here and I have a decent rig!

    I run all the time using AutoFPS and a TLOD of 400 once in the air, I have zero main thread issues doing it this way. Yes if you try and run  TLOD of 400 on the ground at a busy airport your FPS are going to tank. This is why AutoFPS is such a great add-on.

    Thanks for sharing the information. I will check my cable also and see if I get the same results. 

    Hi There,

    I am curious if your yoke is still behaving? I actually returned my first yoke and brought a 2nd one from a different vendor in the hope it was a production issue, I am just over 2 months in with the new yoke and it started doing the exact same thing. I am pretty unhappy right now, I opened a support ticked with Thrustmaster so hopefully they can fix it but it'll probably mean having to return the thing.

    For an expensive piece of hardware this is not promising, I am beginning to regret my purchase even though I love the yoke 😧

    A bit unnecessary this comment was perhaps? Since someone else already pointed this out… You just had to rub it in.

    I don’t get this incessant urge here on Avsim to point out others mistakes. I guess it’s an internet phenomenon 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Cheers!

    My friend, I have come to expect nothing less here 🤣

    My original post was a little tongue in cheek as I figured it was a livery problem. Can't help my sense of humor.

    I am off now to post in the 2nd thread about removing the Dune loading screen, maybe the big boys over there will be nicer

    lets see tomorrow brings when i install the new tv

    Here is a perfect example, I captured this 15 minute segment with CapFrameX from the threshold of EGGP in the Fenix with a good amount of FSLTL traffic and ultra settings with 6K shadows and a TLOD of 450 in the air.

    Now Do I expect to see that somewhere like InI Builds Heathrow, of course not, I have the headroom where by I can drop my fps and GSYNC on my Sony X90K takes care of things but it never gets out of control.

    Hmm I should actually try this test with the excellent AutoFPS at a larger hub and see how it performs.

    what are they on about FTV ?, too tired to read the whole thread 

    It means "Frame Time Variance" it is basically the timing between each frame. The more consistent it is the smoother the experience in the sim will be. For any given hardware setup if you make adjustments to the settings accordingly you can get a consistent FTV even at lower fps although having a low fps with a consistent FTV may help to eliminate stutters it is not so good on a large display such as a TV as I described in a post above.

    Hope this helps

    I’ll still stand by my above comment: FTV matters as much to me at 70 FPS as it does on lower FPS

    100% agree with you there Captain !!

    Even FTV is important at any FPS setting, I have shown it many times on here before. Locked 80fps with FG and zero artifacts = a sublime experience. You need to have evenly matched hardware for it to happen though.

    30 fps on a 55 inch 120Hz 4K TV is a horrible vomit and headache inducing mess

    That is as long as Coatl doesn't crash again, which it seems to do regularly since the last update

    I am finding Couatl constantly crashes as well.

    The Fenix integration seems to work at departure but I am finding at least 50% of the time I have to manually restart Couatl. In fact I just checked and it had crashed again mid flight !

    Both are good but I find that expert mode caters better to my needs (TLOD 1400 lol!)

    And now you can see Mos Eisley, Tatooine clearly from the flight deck of the Fenix at FL 360🤣

    Currently putting a Special Forces Coalition Team together to free your PC from the tyranny that is CPT_Piett LOL

    No issues with display brightness here but I think I know why some people got a problem. If your monitor brightness is too low, FMA (top part of display) practically disappears:-

    It is definitely related to individual displays, I posted a screenshot taken from my 55 inch Sony X90K and when viewed on my Asus 27" PC monitor the top of the PFD does look darker yet on my TV it is perfectly readable in every condition.

    BTW nice to see Bruce is taking some time out from his busy schedule to indulge in his flight sim hobby 😃

    Up The Irons !!!

    Let’s be clear here,

    this is a memory ‘hack’,

    that is officially frowned upon & rejected by Microsobo,

    & completely is outside of Terms of Service…

    just checking for authenticity…

    If you have nothing better to contribute why bother saying anything?

    Trust me there are plenty of people on here that really do appreciate Reset's work. No one is forcing you to use this app and no one wants to hear your constant whining.

    If you disagree with this so much delete your AVSIM account and go spend time at the official forum or even better Reddit, that'll be right up your street!!

    If by this you mean non-expert mode then the only reason your TLOD is sitting at 400 is that your MSFS default setting is double this at 800. Set it much lower in MSFS settings in the MSFS main menu or with the app not running.

    I think I might have messed up, I had the MSFS setting at 400 and was in non expert mode. I need to experiment further so I understand what is supposed to happen

    I was a company training manager before I retired that trained  technicians that  worked on video displays that cost up to $1,000,000 a pop. I think I know what I am talking about. 

    Great Job Bob I applaud your level of expertise. I guess with all your years of experience you will be able to cure the problem you have with your display instead of constantly complaining about it !!!

    I am certain that with all your many years of experience you have the correct colorimetric working space and have checked the Delta E deviation between your monitor and that standard.

    Have fun with your dark display !!!

    The properly calibrated monitor will always have a more accurate picture than a TV, no matter what the size. 

    It has nothing to do with the picture accuracy between a calibrated & uncalibrated display. I guess it is something else on your end then because it doesn't happen on my uncalibrated 4K TV. Both PFD & ND are 100% readable at the top all the time.

    Look at how dark the l green ettering on the top line is compared to the green lettering lettering on the bottom of the PFD.

    The picture looks worse than it is, It has to be display related, on my 27" Asus PC monitor it does look dark, on my flight sim TV it is perfect even in the shade.
