    Hello Dan,

     

    there are many causes of the DXGI error message and also several different versions of that error.

    You can read about this here.

    There is no single solution and there are as many opinions as there are those who choose to post them.

     

    Certainly, an addon airport will add to the workload, in this case, it seems to add around 2GB to the VRAM

    usage, increasing it from the default 3.5 to 5.5 or so.

     

    In P3D v4.5, one can set every setting to its maximum and see no real problems except perhaps for a lower frame rate.

    Not so in P3D v5, which, by using Direct X 12, has kindly introduced a limit similar in effect to that endured by FSX users

    for the best part of 15 years so far.

     

    Like everyone else, I find that P3D v5 runs me out of VRAM at the settings I would prefer, so I do not use them.

    The biggest single cause appears to be shadows, so at the expense of not seeing any, I disable them.

    The remaining world settings I keep at one stage below the maximum, which seems a reasonable compromise

    between what I would like and what I can have.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It’s a constant battle Nick, I’m always tweaking all my settings to save a couple hundred MB of VRAM here and there.  I just wish I could get a better GPU cause I’d do it in a heartbeat.  It seems I need 10GB+ to get where I’d really like to be.  I have shadows all on low and only for internal/external vehicle 


    I’ve been really trying to dial in TE Florida to get ready for KPBI whenever it might come along.  Had a fantastic light addon that I wound up dumping due to the vram penalty.

    I hope it will be released for Eye Candy 2020 first.

    Well since the original screenshots were P3D... I’m not sure about that

    One can only hope I guess.

     

    KPBI has been in public development for on one years and two months as of today-it was first teased on 3/6/20.  Hoping it’ll come along sooner rather than later.

    I guess I'm the 11th. Hoping it comes out for X-Plane 11.

    I believe it was originally P3D, then XP11 but on the “new” roadmap it says P3D/Eye Candy 2020

     I will be th fith poster who is waiting for Palm Beach International!

    Well... Then that makes you the 6th one I’ve talked to in a week anyhow... Everyone at my VA on P3D/XP will buy it for sure... 

     

    6x~$34.95AUD=We’ve broken the $200AUD mark I think!  
     

    edit: let’s try to get it past 10!

    Yes... I am the fourth guy :lol:

     

    Would be nice to know if it is still being developed, and maybe an approximate timeframe.

    There is a 5th guy in my VA who asked me on discord about it the other day.  I can’t post exactly what he said here :lol: 
     

    It’s been 1 year and 19 days (384 days) since it was first teased along with KSJC which at least made it out of the gate prior to FS2020.  
     

     

    So 5 guys waiting... That’s at least gotta be $150AUD if the KPBI scenery is around $30AUD :lol:

    also curious on this one. following

    Surely there’s more than 3 of us waiting.   I wonder how many they’d sell if they released it tomorrow :banghead:

    Does anyone know of anything on kpbi from Orbx? I know it was somewhat mentioned about a year ago on here and a few months ago someone said screenshots are coming soon but still haven’t heard or seen anything. Thanks!

    Join the club man.  I’ve inferred a bit from reading stuff around here that the team (Orbx U.K. team iirc) that is/was working on KPBI has been slid over to work on other stuff at the moment.  Last they said it was “coming when it’s ready”  But that was back in January...
