  1. My sim has never performed so bad with smpv5. I’ve got an i9 9900k and a 3090 and I’m getting 10fps above the clouds in VR. Draw distance 10000. All other settings off. I’ve tried volumetric clouds and non volumetric clouds and neither offers good performance. Not sure where to go or what to do with my sim now. It feels broken.
  2. Fixed it by changing the cloud merge but has impact on performance in VR
  3. In certain weather where it’s misty or cloud low down I’m getting strange horizontal lines be not a blended merge or colour change. This is made worse in VR. See 2d attached. Any ideas how to fix them? I’ve turned most settings off to help VR including cloud blending as per the manual.
  4. I'm still struggling with performance when clouds are visible. Ive since upgraded to a RTX 3090 and its not made a lot of difference.. Still only getting 14 FPS when flying through clouds. I've select SOFT instead of VOLUMETRIC under cumulus and SOLID PROCEDURAL under Overcast. Is there anything else I can try please?
  5. Thanks for the suggestion. I see 5.0.5 has been released. Does this include the performance improvements you mention or is this in a more major update?
  6. If I can’t get a refund then I will need some support on what can be done to make it work. failing that I will have to go back to v4 as it’s just not usable for me.
  7. I upgraded tonight to 5.0.4 now the FPS issue is resolved however I can’t get this version performing for me. Whenever there are visible clouds my performance in VR drops to 10-15 FPS and it’s unusable. ive turned off anti aliasing. Cloud draw distance is 10,000 or less and all other slymaxxpro settings are off. im using real world weather and active sky along with xplane vulkan. I have a reasonable system i9 9900k 1080ti and 32gb ram. xplane settings: Visual effects High (HDR) Texture quality High World objects low reflection detail low Vulkan on Also most of the time at 10000 ft cloud draw I always seems to have clear skies despite the weather being fairly bad. When the skies are clear performance. Sometimes if I turn up cloud draw distance it draws clouds even those near by but FPS performance halfs Any ideas? If not I would like to progress a refund and go back to version 4 please. How do I do this if needed?
  8. B16 has been released today and I have tested this with Skymaxx Pro and can confirm the issue appears to have been resolved.
  9. Why the downvote on my community post. I was only asking if there was an update and what options were available.
  10. Hi Is there any update/fix for this yet as i ended up reinstalling xp and all my addons to find it was still an issue. By removing skymaxx pro it fixes it but given ive only just purchased this i am a little disappointed. Any suggestions as i understand LR to be slowing down the beta releases now so it could be sometime?
  11. I've got 1-2 days left before mine expires. Can someone provide the link for the new beta version please?
  12. It does but X-Plane was showing Stormy weather when loading from METAR. I just wouldn't have expected to see the sunshine. I guess it could be Active Sky and XP not interpreting the weather correctly.
  13. Here is the metar of my local airport this evening taken from active sky xp How come my skymaxx Pro + RWG showed the sunshine in the sky through the clouds also with a bit of rain. Yet outside in real life in this location there was no chance of seeing the sun. EGNX 082050Z 08006KT 2500 -DZ BKN003 14/13 Q1013 REDZ
  14. Thanks. Regarding RWG and preventing weather reloading. Is it best to have this setting on or off for maximum realism. If its on and I get more realism then I will leave it that i have to force a reload. If its off or makes no difference then great but I would like to create maximum realism.
  15. It's not a problem. Just wanted to check. I can certainly can live with it :-) One other thing I noticed in my testing this evening was when it's getting dark and it's cloudy and viewing through the VR headset the clouds look quite pixilated rather than smooth shades. Is this down to VR again as couldn't notice it as much in 2d? Fyi. My headset is hp reverb pro
  16. I use VR with xp11.5b13 and skymaxx Pro and when flying very close to clouds if I move my head the close clouds seem to move aswel l. Is this normal and just a feature of VR? Or is it a bug?
  17. Also I use VR and when flying very close to clouds and move my head the close clouds seem to move. Is this normal and just a feature of VR? Or is it a bug?
  18. I do have that setting set as seem to recall reading in the manual to turn it on. I'll try turning it off and seeing what happens. Thanks
  19. Hi I'm running the latest version of skymaxx Pro and RWG. I use xp 11.50b13 with asxp latest beta with Skymaxx Pro settings enabled. I've tweaked my skymaxx Pro and RWG settings for VR as per the instructions. When I setup a new flight I do the following:- 1. Load asxp and sometimes load a flight plan but not always. Using real-time weather 2. Load xplane 3. Select plane and airport. Weather is already set as metar but usually says clear skies even though they aren't in reality 4. Load the flight. When it loads the weather outside is showing clear skies sun or stars at night. 5. No clouds are shown unless I go to skymaxx Pro plugin menu and force weather reload. I have to do step 5 every time. Why isn't it loading when the flight loads. Ive left it for 10 mins to see if it will load but it doesn't. Any ideas?
