As we all know, London is a performance intensive location in FSX, even with a high-end system. I'm wondering if anyone with a high-end system has managed to run it smoothly and stable at max settings with addons and AI. I'm running a i7-4770K @ 4.5GHz, 16 GB RAM, Nvidia GTX 780 FSX is in DX10 preview mode with Steve's DX10 fix, Max display settings @ 1920x1200, (except: water settings set to Low 2.x, Ground Scenery shadows off), HIGHMEMFIX=1 tweak applied ORBX FTX England UK2000 Heathrow Xtreme set to High detail VFR London Scenery (No photoscenery, just buildings) <this doesn't eat up that many frames, my system handles it well Ultimate Traffic 2 set to 70% I mostly fly the Aerosoft Airbus X Extended A320 I get 20-50 frames without running UT2 AI traffic and it goes down to 8-25 frames with AI traffic in the region. Without getting too obsessed with the frame counter, FSX runs smoothly (15-30 frames) whilst descending into London, passing over the suburbs and into the city, but on final approach, it would drop to 8-15 frames. Whilst I'm okay with landing at 10 frames in this FSX setup, I was wondering if I could get more out of my system. Okay, I can reduce the level of AI which would certainly improve performance, but I'm not that keen on making Heathrow look empty.

Hi folks, Just a quick note before I begin.... I used the search function last night and couldn't find anything. Note I may have been a little tired and may have missed some things. I also asked this question a few months/years back, but can't find if I had an answer, So PLEASE point me in the correct direction if this has already been asked, pretty sure it hasn't but wouldn't want to put money on it! Now, on with the question.... At UK2000 Xtreme Heathrow (V2), I think everyone who owns it, knows there are very few safedocks, with all T5 gates having them, and a select few at T3 and T4. Now then, when taxying in with my PMDG 777, the safedock system displays "B747/A340". So my question is: WHY? 1) Do some select gates actually show 777 2) Are there any fixes or those files that alter it (AFCADS? Is that what they are?) Hope you can help! Thanks in advance! Andy

Hi fellow simmers :smile: I am new to forums so don't really know if i am posting this in the correct place or not so please let me know. I'm wondering if any of you can help me in finding out what kind of graphics card/hardware i need in order to achieve a really good realistic flight simulator... I've been looking online recently and have seen that people have got extremely good graphics even when at mega airports I struggle at the moment to get good FPS when at LHR (EGLL) even when my setting are extremely low. I have updated my PC over the past couple of years but it still isn't great, what do you guys think i should look at purchasing next? My current specs are: Ram: 4.00GB AMD FX -4100 Quad Core Processor 3.60GHz 64 Bit Operating System NVIDIA GeForce GT640 Any ideas on what i can change so that i can get ultra realism? p.s im kinda looking for this kind of level: thanks for the help in advance !! :smile:

A heavily modified Mega Airport London Heathrow Xtended AFCAD combined with Ultimate Traffic 2 with custom schedules and repaints creates the most up-to-date AI traffic experience.

Hi guys Here are a few shots of the Qwings RJ-70 departing Heathrow. Hope you like! As soon as the Aerosoft Airbus X Extended is out (apparently before Xmas) I will be posting shots of her too!! That'll be the second FS highlight of my year, after the Qualitywings! Season's Greetings to everyone! Chris

Folks, I may have overkilled my NGX, too much flying, and, it's not that i'm bored with it, it's just I don't know what to do with it next. After recently realising how my FPS have recently changed at uk2000's Heathrow Xtreme, I kind of want to do some routes from there. So, has anyone got any ideas? I would need: Variant (600/700/800/900) Airline And, of course, the route. ideally to or from LHR. So, does anyone want to give me some ideas?

Hi!I have problem with MS ATC at EGLL in FSX Deluxe + Acceleration + Just Flight: Traffic X. When I try to land or take-off from Heatrow, I'm told by default ATC to start/land on runways 09R or 09L. I've tried to set wind both from ~270 or ~90 degrees. I also try change in ADE 1.50 runway properties => primary (09) land/t-off no/no, change primary from 09 to 27, set orphan ILS for 09 runways. And nothing help. I've tried this on UK2000 Heatrow, Ray Smith's EGLL from Avsim and even on borrowed Heathrow from Mega Airports. And I've constant get 09 runways set, although I would like to use set of 27's (commonly used in real life). If anybody had solution or any sugestion is hugely welcome to share this one with me. :)
