I'd like to take this spot to ask the community to help fund me getting a BMW 6 series.... This has always been a dream of mine, as you know you will be supporting aviation since BMW has its roots in avaition. Hell the logo even represents a propeller...

Martin, It also helps if your log is posted after a crash, the one you provided doesnt help us pin point any problems......

Please follow up with us when you are sure

Fabrizio, Thanks for the detailed reply, so you have a commercial version of X-Plane running I suppose? That way you have access to the projector options for a sim pit? I would like to see a vid that may be helpful in this situation....

I've never seen this behavior before, what are your specs? Can you provide a log.txt file so we can see what plugins you are running?

Oh boy :/

Not yet Mario

It's elements like this that bring the whole environment together and help make the whole experience more enjoyable....

Just a quick one Id like to share:

Turn up the volume....

Yes thank you Viper, we think its related to a specific configuration not a specific chipset......

The only thing I can suggest at this point is trying to roll back drivers or wait until ATI fixes the problem, I know not having a solution is frustrating but again its one of those situations where it is out of our hands.... And you know the level of support we give for SMP, this isnt us blowing you off either, we just cant account for this......

I really don't want to say too much but we were on track and a major life changing event occurred .... I apologize for this and will make it up to the community very soon...

We didn't suggest hDr on as a fix, merely trying to figure out what's going on. I'm jumping in late here but with smp disabled the artifacts go away?

Keep on mind, and this is just a slightly educated guess, if you integrated outerra and X-Plane you'd get about 2fps on a good day.....

Yes since it's tied into the default weather engine it will work....

Q1: Yes you will be able to run SMP on your iMAC Q2: Im running a MBP with similar specs I dont have it powered up right now but a few tips in the XPX rendering options: a. World draw distance to medium b. Water reflections set to either off or low c. Global shadows either low or static d. Make sure texture compression is set to on e. Texture resolution set to high is adequate Q3: No we do not offer a demo Q4: I would try lowering you texture resolution to high the difference isnt the big, also those other settings above will help with VRAM If you do purchase SMP there are a ton of performance options that will help you achieve better FPS over the default clouds some considerations: a. use low resolution cloud puffs b. set the draw distance lower c. turn off crupuscular rays and lens flare d. set cloud shadows and cloud reflections to off e. also included with SMP is a reset button so if you get crazy with the settings you can automatically set it for better performance This reply is full of a bunch of options, ultimately because of so many variables it is up to the end user to adjust XPX and SMP for best appearances and performance Hope this helps some, John

URBANMAXX is custom scenery and should be in the custom scenery folder

Atmosphere 2!

You guess is as good as mine........ Can you provide a log after a crash?
