Speak for yourself. 30fps is not what I want to fly with just to push my gpu to the limit to achieve maybe a 3% visual difference. You might be ok with flying at 30fps but not me

No that is the point because I cant really see any difference unless I pause the game and zoom in to look for issues.

So Asobo should just cater to people with souped up machines? I really dont know why people are mad. Just uninstall msfs and install xp and p3d and save yourself the headache

Speak for yourself. Whats the point of stunning visuals if your performance is trash?

You can always use that hardware for xp and p3d. I'm sure you'll get good performance but it wont look as good unless you buy a ton of addons

If what I have now is far better than what I had before on its lowest setting, why would I complain? The performance and visuals surpass what I'm used to so I'm not going to complain. All I need is my sim to perform well in dense areas like NYC or LA and look good and so far it hasnt let me down yet. I remember when we had drzewiecki design NYC, flying there in fsx or p3d was impossible. The building textures would turn black. Same for LAX. Now we have scenery, performance and visuals and people still complaining because they cant see trees 20 miles out or their clouds arent as fluffy anymore lol

all you guys complaining about down graded visuals and worrying about where the game is going, sound like chicken little. Go compare your visuals to the best p3d and xp has to offer and then ask yourself if could get the same visuals and performance on the other sims

It must be how you set up the hat switch. I know that the hat switch is set up for views instead of panning by default

The white dot is like a mouse cursor for the controller. If it wasn't there you wouldn't know where to point. Just like if you didn't have a mouse cursor you wouldn't know where to click

I had posted a video of the Xbox lod which introduced popin when not set up correctly. That video was reported and taken down. That is the build pmdg is talking about. Because the devs and testers were complaining, asobo sent us a build reverting back to the su4 lod to give the complainers time to fix.

What are you using to pan? I can use my right stick on my Xbox controller to pan around freely, same if I just press the mouse wheel and just move it around freely. I can also press and hold the right mouse button to pan around also. Never had it halt over a button or switch

It's not a downgrade if they do it right. Some developers already did it and their scenery wasn't affected. It's the lazy developers that's preventing us from getting more performance. Think about all the bad performance scenery we had in fsx and p3d and think if they did their part we would have better performance all around

i7 10700k, rtx 2080, 64gb ram, 1440p G-sync monitor , 2x nvme ssd

You mean like this? This is my default sim running on med-high end. I've never had a sim look and performed this good

I dont know, maybe because its a more complex plane? I still get good performance with that plane, but the performance was better in the first beta build

no pmdg is right. The very first beta we got, the performance was amazing. As soon as asobo decided to cater to the lazy devs complaining about redoing LOD (which they should've done in the beginning), they went and changed it back. So while performance did increase it was much more in the first beta build we got

Thats because they are busy flying. I havent spent too much money on addons except for my fav the Turbo Arrow and the DC6 and CRJ. I'm quite happy not having to spend money like I did for xp and p3d. Even if development was to stop now, I could survive especially if I did with fsx, p3d and xp

Confidence took a hit? You must not have been to the FB groups. Lots of people are actually enjoying this update. Dont for a second think that avsim speaks for all of us

This thread is about performance not scenery or sdk. Start another thread about that and stay on topic

I'm sure I'll get old, but I hope and pray I dont be grumpy and stubborn. I try to tell my parents that too. Life is too short. Like another poster said, floating roofs and missing jetways and most of the other issues are right at the bottom of anything to get upset about, especially a video game lol

25 years and already predicting the demise of msfs? lmao

So you're saying I cant say old men? lol

You're right. These are some of the same people that ran off Dovetail when they were trying to resurrect our dead hobby

Proof to back what up? And what agenda would I have? I guess I'm only allowed to comment once on any thread?

You havent been around too long have you? FSX was alive and well for years with all it troubles. I think MSFS will be alright in 1-2 years
