There is a version for the saab in the Xsaitek panels download link, I had to fix one item, when i confirm the one I have works ill pop it on here. So far so good.

I think thats what I used to do, move the levers into position, than click the mouse to pop them in and start before lever jitters popped them out, or there could be some logic that once the levers are poped in you cant move them till engine start, but thats another problem waitng to happen.and more complication. Honestly easier to fly without them

Are you using Xsaitek panels with it???

Did quick take off and long flight playing with Xsaitek, so far plane looks good, Juts need to sort out the speed bug ref, i was in previous version looking at the plane speed not the bug speed as i thought, , when i point it to the bug speed dataref, teh data ref wont change . ill think on this one Sorted, was looking at wrong ref and mistook ANM for ARM. Make sure the rest of it works.

Exciting, installing right now

Not vram issues just pushes GPU really hard

I suppose a lot is down to what people perceive as teh best hardware not knowing the limitations of the sim. The RTX cards are predominantly made for raytracing which is what Nvidia are pushing for sales. One reviewer was actually hassled by Nvidia for not playing there game, to the extent of denying them hardware to review til youtube exploded and they had to back down. I went form 1070 to RTX 2070, knowing full well I wasnt going to get huge improvements because we are still CPU limited but Volumetric clouds hammers teh GPU, so hopefully over time they with laminar will find a solution, as vulcan gets ironed out and performance improves. Its funny to watch game reviewers with 32 thread CPUS and only 10 or so doing anything.

Ive never known software declared beta or not, to not be beta. There is always bugs to fix and improvements to be made at least is not costing us $80 000 to fix which it is costing our company to do a firmware upgrade, on some hardware we spent millions on.

Than you as a software developer would also know that most issues get out when the software is released into the wild and on the general user machines. I simply found a way that works and will live with it till it gets better. I guess I am just old and patient.

What did you expect, you could just do as I said above, its a new thing, even the guy who has being doing the freeware is struggling with performance issues, Now it is here it can get sorted, that is usually what happens when new things are tried,if Laminar are involved it will improve as they do want better weather.

I just simply disabled the volumetric in the cumulus and i got my FPS back teh other volumetric clouds dont seem to cause such a great hit. Also let me push my AA back up.

It may not necessarily be Skymax, you have a couple of plugins that may be the instigator. Try it without ground traffic etc

Thats nice, but I never expected it to be perfect out the box, in fact the guy who is doing the freeware version of volumetric clouds is discussing how difficult it is to get right with little FPS hit. But now we have them there is opportunity for things to improve as new techniques are discovered. But I must ask GPUS have Physics engine, never discussed,can that be used to off load some of the workload from CPU.

Decent into AYPY lots of clouds.

Well I found if i set the Cumulus to the standard clouds I get my FPS back the other ones seem to not cause me an issue, but its nice all the same

May well be teh AMD drivers they never very good.

As i posted AA is the issue, if these are doing multiple levels it could be why the hit is bigger than the freeware as I think (could be wrong) they only do one. intruiged..

Definitely AA dropped it 2 notches 2 Xfaa+ and im getting 60 fps, cant go any lower my shadows playup

There are freeware volumetric clouds and the ydo cause a hit, using this version gave me some of my FPS back till it was broke, But they will fix the issue, But than I only run 1080, have no reason to go higher, as was put to you every thing comes at a cost, you want pretty some thing has to go.

@Cameron installed, going for bike ride before gets to hot, let you know how it goes. Thanks for all the good work

Oh ok didnt know there was one I will let you know. Cheers

Not sure but im running same flight, see how it goes today. It was at sunrise but 5.01 had no issues at all.

The funny thing om 5.01 same flight had no FPS hit at all, even V5.0 was fine

Not sure what happened could be a driver update but last version of SMP killed my FPS was down as low as 15 above , 20 when in clouds. Previous version was fine in the 30s. Ill have another go when its cooler and see what happens Log.txt

Do you have xsaitek panels plugin installed
