  1. Thank you for the reply! I always keep my refresh rates locked to half of my monitor which is 30. As long as I can keep a steady 30 and not go below it that's all I care about.
  2. I have seen all the posts and the spreadsheet for testing and I see a lot of high numbers but people posting the FPS is horrible. So whats the verdict? I run max textures(with compression), HDR 4xSSAA, world objects High, no reflections, no weather addons. Forkboy Orthos. With the carenado citation I get around 50 to 60 around KLAX in air and around 40 on ground. system specs are below i7 7700K @ 4.5 gtx 1080ti SC 16gb DDR4 3200 1920x1080 1TB SSD
  3. im looking forward to V 1.1!! I hope it gets released soon!! Still my fave plane in xplane!
  4. I noticed when I'm on the network and descending on approach, I do not hear the inner or outer markers and I do not hear any altitude callouts close to touchdown such as 500 200 50 20 10 etc...when not on the network, all sounds work just fine so I think the plugin is causing a conflict.
  5. I am using his scenery. I think I fixed the issues though.I had my compress testures box unchecked and it is crashing my sim. So I checked the box again and no crashes. I have a 12gb VRAM video card so I have plenty of RAM so it must be an xplane thing that is causing the crashes with that box un checked.
  6. I'll have to test it on another aircraft to see if I can duplicate the crash. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
  7. Hey litjan it was just the simulator crashing to the desktop. All of a sudden it'll just say X-Plane stopped working and it crashes but there's no crash report in either of the text files Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
  8. Twice in the past three flights I have hard crashed with no reason in the log. At cruise and the sim just stops working. Attaching my logs just in case anyone finds anything. Just to add the first crash was going up to cruise at 30000 from KSAN to KSFO then the second was from KSFO to KPSP about 70 miles from AVE at 27000 level. crash.rar
  9. yeah with no refunds its a gamble for sure...but I have seen the youtube videos and man they look sweet....especially for the IXEG!
  10. I agree 100 percent I do love to do touch n gos in my airfoil labs c172 from time to time if I am limited on flying time that night but really, I find myself in this plane more and more even on short hops. I saw some very short flights between palm springs and LAX that the CRJ's run on a daily basis...its about a 30 min flight and since I fly on pilot edge and I have ZL17 photo scenery for all of the southwest united states from g2xpl, I try to find really short routes to fly. This route is great cause it gets me in the 737 and I can hit it real quick and do a turn around and go back to palm springs. Really great plane guys! I love it so much, its hard to go back to anything else. I do wish the FMS had each key programmable to I could use the keyboard to type...I have carpal tunnel so the fewer clicks for me, the better!!
  11. Yeah, he does not give refunds though so I am kind of skeptical. I read some reviews on Avsim and they love it for FSX but with no refunds its tough to jump in with them on xplane.
  12. Does anyone know about these? Cant seem to find much on the web but for $680 it doesnt seem like a bad deal for what you get!! Anyone know if these work with x-plane? http://www.throttletek.com/g-737v2.html
  13. @dbpetrol I am glad you like the handles! I told you they were great. I love the way you mounted those to the chair. I have some L clamps at home and an extra saitek mount..I am going to have to give that a shot!!!
  14. I don't have any issues cooling but then again I have a corsair hermetically sealed water cooler. Stays at 50c at full load on all cores stress test. Runs at about 40c in xplane. I'd recommend getting one. Easy to install and never needs maintenance since it's fully sealed Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
  15. Thanks Jan! I appreciate you looking into that. If you click instant refueling it goes away but realistic causes the issue. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
