Amazing speed on these updates :) thanks X-Aviation :)

Couldn't agree more.

I' ve been running X-plane for more than 20 years and I've never seen anything like the kind of support we are witnessing for the TBM900 . 

Its what 5 / 6 days since release ? In that time CTDs,  frame rates ,  have all been analysed and solutions offered .At all hours of the day and night. 

Amazing. Kudos to all involved.

Thanx for the (very) good work. Purchased the moment it went live on the store, had no issues whatsoever till now. Didn't have a proper flight yet, since I'm doing only VR, so waiting for the manipulators to be adjusted and meanwhile studying the systems. Cheers!

OMG!! Best update ever seen on all addons. Previous Update did nothing for me, but this one...

From 30fps to 60fps in 1200p at the same place and I can put on Synthetic vision ( -5/7fps) before it was -15fps with Synth Vis on.

Thanks for resolving issue so fast.

Absolutely amazing update! I'm finally able to fly this beautiful plane at decent framerates. At ORBX Great Britain South (and UK2000 Cardiff) I got somewhere between 45 and 55 FPS in clear weather. Which means I can finally lock it at 30FPS again for butter smooth flying. And which also means this plane went form one of the heaviest planes to one of the best performing planes in my collection. Amazing!

Thanks for supporting this plane in such an amazing way! You definitely set an example for other add-on developers with both the quality of the plane and the great support you're providing. Keep up the good work!

My specs: i7 4790K, 16GB RAM, GTX1070, multiple SSDs + 7TB HDD for ortho

Great improvement for fps, but, maybe my fault (beginning withXP), no more elevator trim or aileron trim (with keyboard or joystick) which worked before.

Still works for me, so guess indeed your fault? ;-)

Seamaster , you could try disabling the Terrain Radar utility .

I just had a quick look at the aircraft supported by this utility over at the .org and the TBM , for now , isn't one of them .

 Does Airport Navigator display its results on MFD ? If so might be worth a disable trial.

The devs have recommended switching off as many plugins as possible if you run into problems. 

In your case you have quite a few . You can disable one by one .

Or:

My approach would be to rename your Resources file to something like MyResourcesfile

Create a new Resources file in the main Xplane folder.

Run xplane installer and let it create a brand new vanilla Resources folder . 

Reinstall TBM 900

Restart XP

That way you have your working Resources folder preserved and easily reinstalled by renaming it Resources .

I finally got to fly the aircraft with a FPS of 25-28 and was suitably impressed. Had a generator and low volume warning for the time I was able to fly. Unfortunately after about 15 minutes the FPS dropped to 14 internal view and 17 external. I turned off the window and panel reflections an lowered antialiasing settings to FXAA with no effect.
