Looks amazing btw. GTX970 SLI So try without any Traffic Thanks Michael Moe Latest 777 version? An update was released 2 hours ago requiring an uninstall/reinstall. Cheers, Chris Brand

Common sense really.
July 12, 20178 yr exactly, and I hope it will be this way. Regards, Chris -- PC: Intel 13900K, Gigabyte Geforce RTX 4090, 64GB Fury Beast DDR5 RAM; Display: Varjo Aero VR
July 12, 20178 yr Just tested all three after todays updates and all have dynamic lighting fps issues. Still gettingbat least 10 Fps off what i was getting prior to rollback now two updates back. Using the Hud the 737 is worse than either the 777 or 747 by some margin. Best fps i have seen was before the big rollback where my 747 was flying. Not sure what the issues are and why we have lost all the frames. Darren Howie

July 12, 20178 yr Didn't know what was causing my fps drop on pushback, now I see I am looking down at the throttles on my aircraft but this is where GSX has the pushback truck and their dynamic lights. I hope LM is looking into this - David Lee
July 12, 20178 yr At cruise now, flying into the sun is 10fps in cruise because of dynamic lights. This is not the fault of any developer it must be addressed by LM. I can use MSAA with no fps loss. - David Lee

This will give you a cheap version of ingame 8x SSAA. It's a little shimmery but until they fix it it's fine. Another downside is that you must manually add mipmaps to your planes. This will take care of antialiasing on your plane's textures.
