andy1252 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 (Edited to add - all 4k, best seen maxed out) OK, first trip around my current home town was good, so back to my spiritual home - Sarfend! Looks a lot greener than I remember it Heading up past Leigh-on-Sea, still way more trees than I remember Looking back towards the old place Heading up over Dr Feelgood territory Already much more stuttery than my previous flight, and suddenly I can hear "there may be trouble, ahead" playing in my mind Stuttering so much now the keyboard/stick input is being missed - finding it hard to keep any sort of control (in fact, actually ended up doing a couple of loops - Jack would be proud of me) Managed to get back under control eventually Plugging on, but we're in a real slide-show by now, and a slow one at that. But as I've said many a time here, for me it's all about the view rather than the flight, so I persevered for a bit longer And the views are pretty spectacular! Pushing on towards Heathrow And you can see it in the distance, blacked out boxes where my machine is giving up the attempts to draw And round about here it just got too painful, and I exited. I was running with no allowances for the scenery though, with everything pretty much maxed out as I usually have it, so I will experiment and see if I can make it workable on my system. If I have to dial it back so much that it loses its visual impact though, I shall just accept that for now I can only fly TE GB in these built up areas in XP - which is no hardship at all. Meantime, I will try some more flights away from the big city and see how I get on. (none of this is in any way a complaint about the product. I think it's great, but I may just need a bigger boat!

Stillwater Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Indeed spectacular views Andy, and good to read you learned Jack´s style of flying as well. Plus, to be honest, I appreciate it to read which specs and settings reach their limits with all the toys we are able to add nowadays. Makes me hesitate... , thanks!

Mark Abdey Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 That is a huge amount of objects to render and at 4k too... It does look amazing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian St Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Looking very nice before it all went south. I'd be curious if you changed the weather to default clear and tried again, what sort of result you found. There's some big dark clouds there.
