I have been flying extensively out of KORS, and all over the PNW...and OMG! To see Orbx..FINALLY...as it was actually created, the artwork, and other graphic assets...CLEAR...no morphing...and add in HD Trees, HD Flora, HD Buildings, all those titles, I have them all, and I can actually state right now...that (aghast!) I now actually PREFER Orbx's SYNTHETIC graphics elements, to the graphics engine of MSFS. At this time. Things could change on the MSFS maturity front, but it's like I got the RTM version of OrbxFlyer Sim v1.0, LOLOLOL. Everybody is all over different forums talking about how they only load in 3.0 or 3.5 GB's...and stay there...no matter what they throw at P3D v5.2 (non EA on, and only Active Sky running the atmospherics show). I can live with a 6 minute-to-airport load in...am now just loading up, and walking away from the computer for that time, to make a coffee, grab a sandwich, give the wife a kiss, not exactly in that order...lol. I then come back, and there's KORS looking fantastic now...so crisp and clear, I could cut myself on the top wire of the fence post.... You'll get yours sorted out...

Orbx Flyer Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 In some forums (and they are very correct!), there is advice, that if your FPS are not what you think they should be after having gone from any prior version of P3D.x, P3D v5.2 uses HTML5 menus, and that is for the moment a major bug, that is being worked on right now...by LM. It is causing animation stuttering and wildly ranging or low FPS obtainment. The solution, and (IT WORKS!) is to go into your ROOT HTML5 Folder, and RENAME the AppMenu to something like what I did, to AppMenuTurnOff Do that, and all or most of your stutters will go away, and you should see better, or at least the SAME FPS you had in prior versions, with your same system hardware and in-sim settings. I was moving between 17 and 27 FPS, before I renamed that HTML5 document...and now, I am mostly pegged consistency at 32.5 of my LOCKED 33 FPS setting. So, give that a try...and if you use my suggested temp naming...you'll know what you did, ...and why. When they put out the HF.x, you would change this document back to AppMenu and then press save. Then, run the HF when it is released. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I have just read this complete thread and, because of your comments, I am tempted to try the latest P3Dv5+ again. Thanks, Roger I think you will very happy with it...but I do suggest the first thing you do BEFORE you first run it...is to go into your P3D v5.2 ROOT and open up the HTML5 Folder, and change the HTML5 file named AppMenu to AppMenuTurnOff Then press save so the name change takes. There is a major bug with the HTML5 that L.M. is hunting down, which affects stutter and poor FPS performance. They have it down to something conflicting in the AppMenu HTML5 document. So, by renaming it, causes it not to load in, but default to what was used in P3D v5.1 for now. That will 'head you off at the pass' about poor FPS and stutter performance right out of the gate. Then, ..when the HF for that bug comes out, you'd just rename the file back to the original which would be: AppMenu and then save. THEN you'd run the HF and so on. So with that suggestion, I think you will certainly enjoy it...and I can be certain, that you'll also say, that this version is the only one since RTM FSX, that has no VRAM exhaustion graphic blurriness, or roads morph to jagged whatever's. Nope..none of that now...as most including myself are reporting that with heavy throttle sim settings, most see a Graphics Card load in of 2.9 to 3.0 GB's and it stays at that load until you shut down. Whatever they did...it was the Holy Grail for VRAM management...FINALLY! So, if you have an 8GB card...or even a 6 GB, you are home free with this version. Have fun!

Roger OMG....with THAT card...and THIS version....you'll KILL IT! OMG! LOL...I run a 1070 8GB and the most I have seen is between 2.9 and 3.0, and it doesn't rise above that with EA turned off and Active Sky running the show. I simply like it better. With E.A. on, it runs as 3.0 GB's or 3.2 GB, but no more, and that is with V. Clouds at Medium. So even that is as full go with my 8GB GTX 1070.

If you try renaming AppMenu (which is found in the ROOT HTML5 Folder) to AppMenuTurnOff and save, you should see whatever your card can give you. Also, there has been another minor bug discoverd, with SOUND. Some have reported during a session, your sound volume, might really go much lower than what you'd expect from your SOUND SLIDE settings. That has happened also to me...but certainly is no show stopper. They will fix all these squashies....in the first HF.

Bullfox Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I renamed the App Menu. I was running at 55 to 60 fps and renaming the App Menu evened in out at 6o. However at 60fps the video card ( 5700XT) runs so hot I throttle it back to 40 fps other wise it heats up my computer room. If I still have it when winter rolls around I can put it back to 60 fps. I am not sure what LM did but 5.2 visually and operationally is head and shoulders above 5.1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I very much like the performance of the v5.2, but in TERRAIN LOADING, my sim starting sessions sits at 5 % for almost 8 minutes, and then slowly, very slowly climbs to 100 percent and then the airport. All the time, the busy light of my computer is ranking on. Has anybody else experienced a much longer load in time, before dumping to the chosen airport and/or scenery? That's my only 'critique' so far. I used to have this when I used Vectors. Doesn’t need it anyway. Now disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullfox Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I just deleted the old client and installed the new one. I elected to do it that way because my new system has been up and running only since early May and there is nothing on it not related to flight sim. I did have some problems with sometimes incorrect scenery tiles. I reinstalled Orbk base, vector and land class which went smoothly and solved the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that LM have just made changes that break the long accepted method of updating. I would only add that the full reinstallation method is far more likely to avoid future problems than a piecemeal version but I would draw your attention to the latest update to this topic: Much appreciated Nick! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudger Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Hello Sorry but you may have meant the downloads, on your Prepar Download page, click on the plus sign by + Individual Component Downloads (click to expand) If you had done a full download, you would have them all.
