This is with all graphics sliders set to mid-range.

Here are some grabs of a flight I did earlier this week starting at Dortmund EDLW in Western Germany and flying East towards Magdeburg, Berlin and over the Oder into Poland before landing at Babmost Zielona Góra. Shortly after take off in Dortmund, there is quite a bit of turbulence, so I try to climb above it, eventually getting to 8,000 feet and cruising towards Magdeburg After passing Magdeburg, we head towards Berlin, passing along the south of it. Brandeburg airport can be seen to the left and it's starting to get dark, and traffic is picking up on the autobahn below Finally, we r…

After vowing to never go back to FSX... I refunded P3D v2, skipped going back to 1.4 and went back to FSX.. Having a MUCH better time then I did a year ago on an AMD card and having actual fun again with great results. Mix of DX9/DX10

Just a few shots from my first actual flight in P3D2. Please note: I have purposely reduced sliders and check boxes in P3D2 to their minimum or near minimum settings whilst I test the impact of all of the new features on my machine, hence the thread title. This is not meant as a showcase of what it can look like, just an example of where it is when you crank things down. All default scenery (not that you won't see that clearly :lol: ) custom traffic, OpusFSX, and the AXE only.

A trip from wine country to Weed, near Mt. Shasta. Enjoy John

Hey All Recently I have become interested in learning how to fly helicopters, which X-plane does quite well. I have a selection of heli to choose from but keep coming back to the ND art BK 117 for it's aesthetics and flyability. I also recently decided to make a "chopper playground" for myself. Since I had Aerosoft Chicago from back in the day, I converted it with FS2Xplane and then added some nice photoscenery with G2XPL and voila, my playground is ready. I am trying to get the slow maneuvers down, basically hover, hover taxi and take/off and landing. I though what better place to get it right than on top of some building helipads. Departing Meigs Fiel…

Just got P3DV2 installed a couple of hours ago, after some fiddling around with the settings I've gone out for a test flight in the Iris F22 Raptor (U2 Special). Took off with a high performance climb out, afterburners and a 70 degree nose up attitude. This bird sure can perform :wub:. Beyond that just regular AP testing, and then back down to KJFK. Frames were good all-around, 30-ish FPS at KJFK, settings all maxed out except building shadows disabled and AI road traffic/boats down to 15%. In cruise at FL600 I was getting about 65-70 frames, pretty nice. No addons installed whatsoever, no editing whatsoever. This is the game completely stock. Can't wait to s…

Carenado's best aircraft for X-Plane (and with some features the FSX version has not). Yeah, I know ... forgot to switch on landing lights.

Taz' awesome photo series "FSX Up Close and Personal" (http://forum.avsim.net/topic/426223-fsx-up-close-and-personal/) inspired me to try something similar ... Sunday Morning Breakfast with Austin Time Travel Winter Star Cool Pushing Autopilots Blues Godspeed

Prepar3d v2 is delightful for slower GA flights. I still use FS X for "heavy artillery" stuff like tubeliners, but in time I will - like many others - probably give up on FSX when most of the airliners function properly. Anyways, here some shots from a flight between ESSA - ESGG ...Cloud surfing. I did experience a bug with carburator icing despite the Bonanza using direct fuel injection. It doesn't have a carburator. Here you can see the load on the graphics card. When we can use PMDG airliners I will probably have to reduce some settings, otherwise my card will take a pounding. ILS21 approach loaded nicely in the GPS Little bit…

This post is an addendum for this post: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/427529-simple-solution-for-shadows-and-loss-of-fps-or-the-tweaking-has-begun/ 1. The distance of the shadows by default As you will see the differences are very obvious. Ultra High Medium Low 2. The distance of the shadows all set to 12000 in the cfg As you will see the differences are far less obvious. Performance goes up though with each lower setting! Ultra High Medium Low 3. The distance of the shadows above New York As you will see there there seems to be no difference at all. You will have to download the pictures and view them one a…

Still enjoying the C90B. This time a short, without-autopilot flight from Haines to Skagway. From one second to the next, the real weather decided to become better.

And a little something for fun. This, like the above shots, is not edited in any way. X-Plane 10.25, HD Mesh 2, SkyMAXXX Pro, and in the first image, photoscenery around the Bitterroots. All default a/c.

... but Reykjavík at dusk (click on the image to get the full resolution).

Milan by night. Default scenery with freeware lights mod. Unedited shots.

Here a couple of screenshots of my flight from Salt Lake City to San Diego, using FlightFactor 757 in X-Plane 10. Scenery in Salt Lake City is default airport and mesh. For San Diego, I'm using a conversion of a MSFS Scenery. Climbing out of Salt Lake City: Arrived at San Diego:

Freeware HD mesh v2, updated OSM data. Unedited shots.
