    Nice views of your tour Steve.  I really like the new 5.3 for smoothness as well.  So much good simming to do, so little time.  :lol:


    Thanks everyone - I suspect many of you have a lot of cool Orbx content and maybe already have a Prepar3D license for the latest version...if so, and you’ve not tried P3Dv5.3 with the hotfix yet I highly recommend giving it a whirl, fun stuff, still amazed by how smooth it is (and their new Jobscheduler entries in the .cfg really help with the right settings, I’ve found).

    After long disuse of my P3D I recently installed 5.3 then an "affinity mask" along with the Orbx TrueEarth sceneries and I'm now having the time of my simming life with velvety smooth FPS unlike any I've experienced before in any sim - 60FPS over Los Angeles or Seattle (No, I don't have my settings "full right" either nor have I tried AI traffic other than ships and Larry's ferries yet, but with the smoothness and Orbx photoscenery and bespoke POIs and airports I'm having a great deal of fun - the P3Dv5 team did a great job on this build.

     

    Some quick trip shots - Orbx Burbank to Palm Springs through TrueEarth Southern California P3Dv5.3.
