If XP could have terrain and atmosphere like this...

In a last word, I made this quick comparison between two absolutely different softwares ... X-Plane 10.25RC1 64bits and Arma III

 

For sure both don't work the same way at all, I just noticed two things : Arma III has amazing graphics, huge size etc etc ... with everything ( including AA ) maxed out I got around 80FPS ( if not more ), all the time , and tools I have in my hands to monitor the GPU show it is under high load, and XP10 got neat graphics ( but not to die for ) no AI planes, no complex plugins or scripts running in the background except the sim itself, and the CPU is running idle 10% ( as shown previously )

Now, X-Plane, in a medium sized city and a very simple scenery, with the Baron 58, and following settings, give me real bad FPS, for a GPU that is almost at idle ( see the freqs, temps et  )

No, I know I'm not a specialist in the matter, but isn't it evident that there is a big problem here ? all my drivers are up to date, all my other apps/games/sims are running flawlessly and I got that... Tried all resolutions and refresh rate, same results within +/- 2%

Ok so that explain why my X-Plane copy see catastrophic results while, DCS, IL-2 CoD, FSX, Silent Hunter, Crysis etc never drops below 75 FPS at max settings ?

 

Don't get me wrong I'm fully supporting X-Plane since V8, and it's now my favorite civilian sim, for sure, but I have really the feeling it is a constant Beta with many changes between each updates...

 

I understand their " platform " philosophy, but there are limits aren't there ? Anyway, I'm sure you could understand my statement a bit more if you had spent several thousands of bucks in the best hardware, and getting those results in return ...

I can not go to the org, I'm Banned ( ahah ) like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, they call if the Hall of Shame

 

Anyway, there is no logic in producing a software that only a computer from 10 years on the future will handle, and it's even more frustrating when you see your shiny bright sleek hardware sleeping while the sim is also sleeping ...
