October 29, 20223 yr Can someone comment upon quality and perfomance, I have no experience with Sierrasim?
October 30, 20223 yr I got the SKBG scenery for all Sims since FSX, and just bought SKMD for MSFS. Since SKBG is my hometown airport, I'm allowed to be picky, but I have no complaints about it at all, either regarding performance or accuracy. Well, there's not much traffic at Palonegro anyway... Best regards, Luis Hernández Main rig: self built, AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D (with SMT off and CO -50 mV), 2x16 GB DDR4-3200 RAM, Nvidia RTX 5060Ti 16GB, 256 GB M.2 SSD (OS+apps) + 2x1 TB SATA III SSD (sims) + 1 TB 7200 rpm HDD (storage), ID-Cooling SE-224-XTS air cooler, Viewsonic VX2458-MHD 1920x1080@120-144 Hz (G-sync compatible), Windows 11. Running P3D v5.4 (with v4.5 scenery objects as an additional library, just in case), FSX-SE, MSFS2020, MSFS2024 and even FS9. XP11 and 12 installed, just for curiosity. Mobile rig: ASUS Zenbook UM425QA (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H APU @3.2 GHz and boost disabled, 1 TB M.2 SSD, 16 GB RAM, Windows 11 Pro). Running FS9 there for airliner ops. FSX-SE also installed, just in case. Lossless Scaling in al my rigs. What a godsend... VKB Gladiator NXT Premium Left + GNX THQ as primary controllers. Xbox Series X|S wireless controller as standby/mobile.

Performance is very good, and I've never experienced any errors, crashes, and no flickering textures or something like that. Quality is OK. Here and there, it looks generic and "painted", especially when you look at the letters on some terminals. All in all a bit old-fashioned. But at the end of the day, you get pretty good value for money. And you get a big collection of accurate airports at important places, where nobody else has created any reasonable scenery. I have almost all of their Latin American sceneries, and I really like them! Hope they keep on with their concept to make exotic airports. Regards, Dominik
