GTX 980ti Vulkan driver

Thank you, Glenn. I thought I read something similar a while back, but could not find it again. XP wins out over SE. -
GTX 980ti Vulkan driver
alderon57 replied to bjablonka8120's topic in The X-Plane General Discussions Forum
I'm in a pickle... I really like my SpaceEngine software, but it can't support anything newer than 435.27 (I think). Will I be able to use that driver with the public Vulcan release? Or is it too old? -
Reinstalled My Computer OS
alderon57 replied to blocks_off's topic in The X-Plane General Discussions Forum
Agreed. I got rid of Win 7, and installed Win 10. No problem getting things running again. And now I have the right nVidia driver for Vulcan. -
Finally...the Skunkcrafts Legacy almost done

Yep...this will be a Day 1 purchase for me. Thanks, Ryan. -
If I understand Vulcan correctly, it sounds like I can't even try it until I upgrade my hardware. My GTX 970 still works pretty well on "old" XP, but it's a 4GB board. So that means reduced textures everywhere?

I have only ever used XVision, and that alone makes a huge difference, depending on which file you use.

Andras, I have used HD mesh ever since I first heard about it. The difference is amazing! Would we see a corresponding difference between HD and UHD? Thanks for all your work and contributions! Ron

SFD Global out: any reviews?
alderon57 replied to ryanbatc's topic in The X-Plane General Discussions Forum
The ground textures in non-Ortho areas look great, as others have said. His autogen is really well done. (Keep in mind that both of these do repeat, as they just replace the default items.) The trees have much greater variety of shape and texture. I commented in another forum that they seemed a little too light / bright. MisterX6 agreed, and said he will tweak them for the next release! Amazing stuff. -
This was the video where it was mentioned. But on a newer video, he seems to have backed away from this "fact"... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isVmSRZT5e8

The latest "development / reveal" video confirmed that MSFS will be cloud-based and subscription. Both of those are deal breakers for me. I will happily stay with XP.

I'll believe it after I see reviews for the PC version...

[XP11] Rewind, then start flying again?
alderon57 replied to jet 320's topic in X-Plane Tips and Tricks
Interesting! I have watched the reply. I'll have to try flying the reply. Great for those less-than-perfect landing do-overs!
